The Trustees are the governing body of MAP and are, collectively and personally, ultimately responsible for all the charity’s activities. MAP is a company limited by guarantee, so the Trustees are also the legal Directors of the charitable company.

Trustees are responsible for providing appropriate oversight, governance and strategic leadership to MAP in the pursuit of its charitable purposes.

MAP particularly welcomes applications from people with one or more of the following:

· Palestinian heritage or lived experience in the occupied Palestinian territories.

· Professional medical or clinical expertise, particularly in the contexts of international development and/or conflict.

· High-level experience in advocacy, campaigns and communications.

Relationships

· Build and maintain effective relations between the Board, MAP’s staff (in the UK, the occupied Palestinian territories and Lebanon) and its external stakeholders.

Strategy and Performance

· Contribute actively to the Board’s role in giving strategic direction, setting overall policy, defining objectives and setting targets.

· Keep informed about the activities of MAP and wider issues which affect its work.

· Regularly review and evaluate the performance of the charity’s management in meeting agreed goals and objectives.

· Ensure MAP’s projects and programmatic activities are critically monitored and evaluated.

· Ensure the Board’s decisions are effectively implemented by the Chief Executive Officer.

· Ensure MAP’s long-term sustainability.

Stewardship

· Ensure that MAP complies with its constitution, charity law, company law and other applicable legislation and regulations.

· Promote a high standard of governance in compliance with regulatory requirements and the Charity Governance Code.

· Ensure that MAP remains financially viable and resilient.

· Ensure that MAP makes proper use of its financial and other resources in pursuit of its charitable objectives.

· Ensure that financial controls and systems of risk management are appropriate and robust.

· Ensure that the Board is kept fully informed by way of timely and relevant information.

· Participate in the appointment of the CEO and other staff as appropriate.

Board Activities

· Participate fully in the work of the Board.

· Participate in Board induction, training and evaluation, individually or as a member of the Board, as appropriate.

· Attend Board and applicable sub-committee meetings, and read the papers provided in advance of the meetings.

· Participate in individual and Board performance appraisals, and attend any additional training recommended as a result of the evaluation process.

· Uphold the highest standards of integrity and probity.

Person Specification

Skills and Abilities

· Understands MAP’s aims and objectives and are aligned with the organisation’s fundamental values.

· Has prior governance experience at board level or equivalent, which may be in the charity, public or private sectors.

· Ability to think strategically.

· Ability to base their judgements on relevant and reliable evidence.

· Capacity to work effectively as part of a team and take an inclusive and collegial approach to discussions and decision making.

The new Chair-designate will be an individual of exceptional calibre who can guide and enhance the strategic development of MAP. They will additionally demonstrate the following:

· A strong personal connection to MAP’s aims and objectives.

· Proven track record of strategic leadership in complex international operations.

· Demonstrated success in chairing Boards or governance committees.

· A clear appreciation of the governance role of the Board and the delegation of specified responsibilities to management.

Terms and Conditions

Duration

The Trustee will be appointed to serve for an initial term of three years. At the end of the initial term, the Trustee will be eligible to be re-appointed for up to two further three-year terms.

Location

There are no requirements regarding a Trustee’s location. MAP’s head office is in Central London. Trustees are encouraged to attend meetings in person, but if this is not possible, videoconference facilities are provided.

Remuneration

The role of the Trustee is a voluntary one and is therefore unpaid. However, MAP will reimburse all out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred by the Trustee in the course of their duties.

Time Commitment

Immediately following an appointment, MAP will agree on a personalised induction plan. The time commitment for this plan will depend partly on the Trustee’s prior knowledge and experience.

MAP hold a minimum of four board meetings a year, conducted on a hybrid basis as noted above. These normally last between three and four hours including a break. There is usually also one full-day session per year dedicated to strategic planning, for which attendance in person is highly desirable.

The Trustee will be expected to join one of the sub-committees of the board. Sub-committee meetings are also held four times a year, on a hybrid basis, and normally last around two hours.

In addition to preparing for and attending meetings, the Trustee will be expected to participate in routine governance activities such as training, appraisals, and recruitment or exit interviews.

Ordinarily, the above commitments would entail between one and two days per month. Applicants are advised that, since the events of October 2023, MAP’s activities have expanded enormously and some of the current Trustees have been contributing significantly more time than this.

The deadline for applications is Sunday 17th November 2024.

Racing Welfare is a national charity supporting all those working and retired from the British horseracing and thoroughbred breeding industry.  We are seeking an advisory committee member who shares our vision that everyone from the horseracing and breeding industry and community feels supported and has the opportunity to thrive.

The Racing Welfare group – including our housing association, Racing Homes – has exciting times ahead as we seek to secure long-term sustainable funding for our core services and plan the expansion and reorganisation of our housing portfolio.

We are looking for someone who has a passion for the work that we do and who is familiar with the challenges of running a national organisation. 

What are we looking for?

We are seeking to add to the expertise that we have on either the Finance Investment & Audit committee or the Housing Committee (Racing Homes) through enthusiastic individuals who are looking to develop their own skills and experience. We are particularly look for those with:

· Experience and expertise in charity audit and statutory compliance, preferably someone who has held a senior position in an audit firm or is otherwise familiar with charity SORP; or

· Professional experience with construction projects and the build environment; or

· Legal expertise in the property or social housing sector.

Please note, as this post will involve governing and advising on services that have direct contact with young people and vulnerable adults alongside some work of a sensitive nature it will be subject to a satisfactory, enhanced DBS disclosure.  We also make checks on staff working with vulnerable adults and young people against the DBS barred lists.

What will you be doing?

Our committees meet up to four times a year - usually twice via video-call and twice in person. The meetings are currently routinely attended by at least three trustees along with other advisory committee members, as well as relevant members of the Executive Team.  The meetings are held to discuss strategic matters, as well as report on significant current challenges or issues, and to assist the main board with high level decision making.

There will also be the requirement to undertake a committee member induction which we anticipate being a one-off one-day commitment.  Each year, in addition to the committee meetings we anticipate another two days commitment would be required.

We invite committee members to join the Charity for an initial period of three years with the possibility of Trusteeship after one year.

What difference will you make?

Demand for Racing Welfare and Racing Homes’ services is higher than ever and in common with the charity sector as a whole funding those services is increasingly more challenging. 

Racing Welfare continues to review, improve and expand a large portfolio of welfare and wellbeing services which make a significant difference to the lives of individuals working in horseracing, their employers, the horse racing industry and in turn, communities and society.

Racing Homes currently has 165 units of accommodation housing young people, working age staff and retirees from the Racing industry. We have housing schemes in Newmarket, Lambourn, Middleham and Malton and have advanced plans for new schemes in two of those locations, providing more than thirty additional new units of accommodation.

What is in it for you?

You will enjoy working alongside and learning from an inspiring and knowledgeable team of executives, committee members and trustees.  You will have the opportunity to develop your board member skills and there may be opportunity to progress to a trustee position after 12 months.

Applications will close on 18th November 2024.

Jabalie

Jabalie is a UK charity working internationally with survivors and individuals that are at high risk of gender-based violence.

“Gender-based violence” (GBV) is violence or abuse that is directed against a person or community because of their gender identity or expression, or the violence or abuse affects persons of a particular gender disproportionately. Gender-based violence affects people of all genders, including women and girls, men and boys, transgender individuals, and non-binary people. However, women and girls are disproportionately affected.

Some key statistics include: • One in three women and girls globally will experience some form of violence in their lifetime. • One in four men globally have experienced sexual or physical violence by an intimate partner. • One in four LGBTQ+ individuals have experienced violence or abuse by an intimate partner.

Many victims feel unable to leave their relationship and for those that do, many return to their abuser for a variety of reasons - for example, because they are financially dependent on them, or remain emotionally controlled by them. It takes an average of 7 times for a victim to leave an abusive relationship permanently.

Jabalie is a UK charity that aims to educate and empower survivors and individuals at high-risk of gender-based violence to promote their safety, autonomy and economic independence. We are developing an education and empowerment programme to help build survivors' knowledge, skills and confidence so they can build their lives outside the shelter and become financially independent.

The programme will have 5 areas: (1) Understanding GBV; (2) Skills Development; (3) Legal Rights; (4) Women's Health; and (5) Mental Health. We will also have a training of trainers programme, advocacy against GBV, and are building a community of survivors and GBV activists. I've attached our Strategic Plan 2024-27 with further details.

Our pilot programme will be created in the UK and Kenya using a model that can be upscaled internationally.

The People’s Center for Environment and Culture

The People's Center for Environment and Culture is a community-driven research and capacity-building organization that leverages grassroots expertise and institutional partnerships to address environmental and cultural challenges in a collaborative and impactful way.

Some of the key problems the People Center is addressing include:

Lack of Community-Driven Research:

• Much academic and institutional research is conducted in a top-down manner, without meaningful input from the communities being studied.
• This results in research that may not accurately reflect or address the real-world challenges faced by community members.

Inaccessibility of Resources and Funding:

• Smaller nonprofits and community organizations often lack the capacity and resources to navigate complex funding and administrative processes.
• This prevents them from accessing grants, partnerships, and other support that could significantly boost their impact.

Uneven Power Dynamics:

• Historically, large institutions like universities have held significant power and influence over community-based initiatives.
• This can lead to a lack of true collaboration and community ownership over research and programs.

Grassroots Community Research:

• Conduct research that is grounded in the needs and perspectives of the local community, rather than a top-down, academic approach.
• Leverage the People Center's deep community connections and grassroots expertise to inform and guide research initiatives.
• Position the People Center as a trusted partner for community-based research, not just an academic institution.

Collaborative Partnerships with Institutions:

• Seek partnerships not just with universities, but also with other large institutions like hospital systems, government agencies, etc.
• Leverage these institutional partnerships to amplify the impact of the People Center's grassroots community research.
• Ensure the research and resources generated through these collaborations directly benefit the local community.

Capacity Building for Community Organizations:

• Provide fiscal sponsorship and administrative support to empower smaller nonprofits and community groups.
• Enable these organizations to focus on their core mission and programming by handling back-office tasks.
• Foster a collaborative network where community partners can share resources and expertise.

Join the People's Center for Environment and Culture and be part of a grassroots movement to amplify community voices and drive positive change. As a volunteer, you'll contribute your skills and passion to collaborative research projects, community events, and capacity-building initiatives that empower local organizations. Together, we'll bridge the gap between institutional resources and on-the-ground needs, creating a more equitable and sustainable future. Sign up today and make a real difference in your community.

PeakWell

We are a corporate health platform designed for employees who are returning to work after a longer period of sick leave such as burnout by providing personalised reintegration plans.

Burnout is a pervasive issue affecting two-thirds of full-time employees at some point in their careers. Despite the prevalence of this issue, work environments are often ill-equipped to respond constructively. Only 27% of supervisors react positively to incidents of burnout, and merely one in three colleagues provide the necessary support. This lack of structured support exacerbates the challenges faced by both employees and employers when a worker returns after an extended absence due to burnout.

Employees and employers alike struggle with the absence of a structured reintegration process, leading to increased stress and reduced productivity. The absence of a clear reintegration strategy prolongs recovery times and heightens the risk of relapse, resulting in higher costs for both insurance providers and organisations.

PeakWell is a comprehensive mental health platform designed to support highly skilled professionals returning to work after extended sick leave. The platform provides personalized burnout assessments, tailored recovery plans, and ongoing education for both employees and managers. By aligning all stakeholders—employees, employers, insurers, and medical practitioners—PeakWell ensures a holistic approach to burnout management.

At PeakWell, we believe in the power of collaboration and innovation. As a volunteer, you'll the opportunity to develop your skills, take on meaningful challenges, grow with us and see the tangible results of your efforts in real-time.

Your time and expertise can help us build a brighter future for countless professionals and their organizations. Together, we can create a supportive community that fosters growth, recovery, and sustainable high performance. Join us on this inspiring journey and make a difference that truly matters. Your dedication can be the catalyst for change—let's make it happen together.
