Trustee roles

Ever thought: “I’d love to help make a difference, but I don’t have the skills”?

That’s exactly why we need you. Trustees don’t need perfect experience, they bring curiosity, commitment and fresh perspectives to guide our mission.

Permaculture ethics are at the heart of everything we do:

• Earthcare - enhancing natural resources and biodiversity; celebrating seasons

• People care – valuing diversity, embracing difference, supporting health and wellbeing by connecting people to nature and to healthy food

• Fairshares – inspiring people to create solutions for sharing resources wisely, today and for future generations.

Join a diverse board and help nurture growth for people and planet.

Benefits

• Being part of a vibrant, growing community of passionate changemakers working towards a greener, fairer world
• Opportunities to learn about permaculture through our courses and events
• Grow your own skills in governance, strategy, and resilient design

Practical Considerations

We’re looking for people who:

• Are committed to our values and aims as a charity
• Are based locally and able to commit to the role for at least two years
• Can attend bi-monthly trustee meetings (typically on Monday afternoons via Zoom).

Skills

We are looking to attract more voices to our small governing body. A wide and diverse set of skills and experiences is vital for developing the Trust. You can contribute in many ways – from bringing specific skills and experience, such as finance or HR, to bringing a different perspective and fresh thinking to our work.

We are especially looking for trustees with knowledge of finance, accounting, or fundraising, though all applications are welcome.

When do I need to be available?
