Do you believe everyone should have the chance to connect with nature and experience the beauty of the Peak District? Then come and join this small, but mighty charity board as a Trustee, to help protect the Peak District for future generations. We're particularly keen to connect with people who can bring their commercial expertise and acumen to the Board. Location: Hybrid between Peak District/Bakewell HQ* and online *Possibly Manchester/Sheffield depending on most accessible locations Time Commitment: Approx. 4 Board meetings 1 strategy day per year Term: 3 years initially, renewable thereafter Renumeration : Voluntary, with reasonable expenses covered Charity People is partnering with a growing charity with a big bold mission: to make the Peak District a thriving home for nature and people. A place which is welcoming to all and cared for by everyone. Since launching in 2019, they've successfully raised over £2.2 million to make the Park greener, wilder and more accessible. Connecting thousands of young people to nature, restoring rare habitats and helping communities discover the power of the outdoors. Nature loss, climate change and unequal access to the countryside are urgent challenges. At the same time, public funding for National Parks has fallen dramatically. That's where this vital work comes in - and where you could too. About the role As a Trustee, you'll help shape the Foundation's next chapter. You'll guide strategy, champion the mission and ensure they're delivering lasting impact for nature and people. You'll join a passionate, collaborative Board, supporting a nimble, high-performing team that's already making a big difference on the ground. You don't need prior trustee experience - what matters most is your enthusiasm, curiosity and belief in the power of nature to connect and inspire. You'll receive a full induction and training. Who we're looking for Having just been through a successful round of Board recruitment, we're confident we now have robust representation from the charity and public sector, and are now looking for commercial and business skills to strengthen the Board's make-up. A deep love or connection to the Peak District is desirable, but not essential - you may simply have a strong passion to see our natural spaces protected for generations to come. Who should apply? We're very happy to consider applications from those living outside the Park who can demonstrate their passion for protecting it (providing you're comfortable attending some Board meetings in-person, with expenses paid). We also want to emphasise that candidates from all backgrounds are warmly encouraged to apply - in particular, Black, Asian, and global majority candidates, disabled people, those from lower socioeconomic backgrounds, younger candidates (under 40) and first-time trustees. We're looking for individuals who will culturally add to the organisation, rather than simply fit an existing mould. Why apply This is your opportunity to share your time and expertise to make a meaningful impact on one of the UK's most iconic landscapes. Serving as a Trustee is a powerful way to show your support and help shape its future. How to apply A short CV or profile is a great first step, but please also feel free to get in touch to receive a copy of the recruitment pack or an informal conversation. Our Regional Director, Amelia Lee, is leading on this opportunity. Deadline: 9am on Friday 5th February, but please do get in touch ASAP if interested as we'd love to start conversations as soon as possible. Charity People is a forward thinking, inclusive organisation that actively and deliberately promotes equity, diversity and inclusion. We know organisations thrive when inclusion is at the forefront. We evidence our commitment by matching charity needs with the skills and experience of candidates irrespective of background e.g. age, disability (including hidden disabilities), gender, gender identity or gender reassignment, marriage and civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief, or sexual orientation. We do this because we believe that greater diversity leads to greater results for the charities we work with.
