Are you interested in supporting children and young people's education, mental and physical health through the performing arts, theatre and dance? About Us Artemis Studios produces and provides performing arts education and support for young people aged 4-24, through theatrical production, training and applied theatre. We are non-profit and moving to offering everything as accessible and inclusive as is possible, through low-fees or no-fees for our students. Increasingly, we are supporting young people's mental health through our performing arts and offering pastoral support to children, young people and even parents. We were established in 2007 and since 2014, operate Company Limited by Guarantee. The Directors are establishing it as a Registered Charity, but need people who have not been previously connected with the organisation to become 'independent' trustees and join the new Board. Our turnover in 2019 approached £220k, and even with a Covid-19 year, we predict similar or higher for the immediate future. Obviously, our services to children and young people have been severely limited but we are on track to continue to build our Reserves. We have plans to increase our provision and re-establish our own venue, and we need you to be part of that exciting development. The role Our existing Board of Directors will transform into a charity trustee Board once we have sufficient independent (unconnected) trustees and we can continue our registration with the Charity Commission.

We especially want to expand the diversity of our board, in all meanings of the term. Interest in young people, mental health support, education or the performing arts and associated disciplines might be beneficial, but potential applicants do not need in-depth understanding of, or involvement in, our operational cause; you do need to grasp governance, change management and strategic planning, and be independent from the existing Company Directors and operational employees. We ask for approx. four hours of your time per month, which includes all meetings, correspondence, communication, etc. The Board currently meets online for 90 minutes (unless there is a specific emergency challenge). What do you get as a volunteer trustee with our organisation? An opportunity to exercise your strategic & planning skills in one or more of those areas shown, probably in a different environment or context A chance to expand and implement your understanding of the arts in support of children and young people's mental and physical wellbeing A chance to augment your experience of charities A boost to your career and CV, if needed Satisfaction of helping an organisation that supports children and young people, thus giving something back to your community Induction training from us; training, support and assistance from our local charity-support & advice agency What do we get? Your skills, knowledge, understanding or experience, ideally in any one of those areas with which we most need assistance - we don't expect one person to have all of those, though! Your abilities to influence plans for our charity's future Enhancement to our overall governance and the Board of trustees; improvement in our charity governance and operational growth Your participation in our collective decision-making, contributing to all areas of our charity work Your enthusiasm What do our beneficiaries get?

London, EnglandThe British Liver Trust is looking for 2 new Trustees to join our Board. Our Trustees play a pivotal role in providing governance and guidance to ensure we are delivering for people with liver disease and liver cancer. They are involved in setting the strategic direction of our organisation, as well as holding the senior management team to account. The trustees work closely as a team with the senior management team of the charity, playing an active role advising and mentoring as required. The British Liver Trust is a small charity with big ambitions. We want liver disease to have the same profile and awareness as the other big killer diseases such as heart disease, stroke and cancer. We are looking to recruit 2 trustees to help us grow and develop to meet this challenge, one HR professional and one communications professional. We currently have 4 Board meetings a year, usually either in London or virtually, with one meeting (COVID allowing) in our Bournemouth national HQ. Trustees would be asked to sit on a Board sub-committee relevant to their skill set. As we grow as a charity, we recognise that additional HR expertise will be essential, to support our Director of Finance and Operations and to help maintain a highly motivated workforce, which includes volunteers. Experience in a volunteering, health or care environment would be very helpful but is not essential. What is much more important is senior level HR knowledge and a desire to make a significant difference to the leading patient charity for those with liver disease or liver cancer. We also need a Trustee with senior communications and marketing expertise and ideally agency contacts, who is able to provide high-level strategic advice and provide support when needed to the Director of Communication and Policy and their team. We think you will be already acting as a Comms and Marketing Director in an agency, large company, or health sector government position, or perhaps an MD or CEO with a strong knowledge and experience of Communications. We would also hope you could: Act as a sounding board for the senior management team and communications teams, advising on matters such as the development of the market position and brand of the charity and marketing and communications strategies Support the trustees and staff to recognise external communications opportunities and solutions, and support staff to define and execute appropriate strategies Provide crisis communications support if needed How to apply If you have the skills, knowledge and experience required, please ask for a pack from sandra.cooper@britishlivertrust.org.uk. If you would like an informal chat with our Chief Executive, Pamela Healy OBE, please email Sandra with your availability so that she can arrange this. The Board is currently looking to increase diversity amongst our Board members and ensure that we more accurately reflect the population at large and the communities we serve. We also welcome applications from people who have personal experience of liver disease. Please tell us if there may be any barriers to your engagement with us and we will actively work with you to remove these. Applications close 20th January with interviews (remotely) w/c 1st February 2021.

Trustees
EnglandDo you have the enthusiasm to help us set up our new charity Board for Artemis Studios? Do you want to be in at the start of our new charity? Are you interested in supporting children and young people's education, mental and physical health through the performing arts, theatre and dance? About Us Artemis Studios produces and provides performing arts education and support for young people aged 4-24, through theatrical production, training and applied theatre. We are non-profit and moving to offering everything as accessible and inclusive as is possible, through low-fees or no-fees for our students. Increasingly, we are supporting young people's mental health through our performing arts and offering pastoral support to children, young people and even parents. We were established in 2007 and since 2014, operate Company Limited by Guarantee. The Directors are establishing it as a Registered Charity, but need people who have not been previously connected with the organisation to become 'independent' trustees and join the new Board. Our turnover in 2019 approached £220k, and even with a Covid-19 year, we predict similar or higher for the immediate future. Obviously, our services to children and young people have been severely limited but we are on track to continue to build our Reserves. We have plans to increase our provision and re-establish our own venue, and we need you to be part of that exciting development. The role Our existing Board of Directors will transform into a charity trustee Board once we have sufficient independent (unconnected) trustees and we can continue our registration with the Charity Commission. We are looking for more than one person with abilities, skills, enthusiasm or experience in ANY or more of the following: Marketing; sales; promotion; campaigning & awareness Fundraising strategy Facilities (buildings, etc.) development Charity or not-for-personal-profit organisational governance Professional creative arts practice in theatre, film or television Experience in the Further Education sector Experience in developing inclusivity and diversity in governance and operations We're a not-for-personal-profit business, so we want you to help us apply charity principles in governing our organisation. We especially want to expand the diversity of our board, in all meanings of the term. Interest in young people, mental health support, education or the performing arts and associated disciplines might be beneficial, but potential applicants do not need in-depth understanding of, or involvement in, our operational cause; you do need to grasp governance, change management and strategic planning, and be independent from the existing Company Directors and operational employees. We ask for approx. four hours of your time per month, which includes all meetings, correspondence, communication, etc. The Board currently meets online for 90 minutes (unless there is a specific emergency challenge).

An opportunity to exercise your strategic & planning skills in one or more of those areas shown, probably in a different environment or context A chance to expand and implement your understanding of the arts in support of children and young people's mental and physical wellbeing A chance to augment your experience of charities A boost to your career and CV, if needed Satisfaction of helping an organisation that supports children and young people, thus giving something back to your community Induction training from us; training, support and assistance from our local charity-support & advice agency What do we get? Your skills, knowledge, understanding or experience, ideally in any one of those areas with which we most need assistance - we don't expect one person to have all of those, though! Your abilities to influence plans for our charity's future Enhancement to our overall governance and the Board of trustees; improvement in our charity governance and operational growth Your participation in our collective decision-making, contributing to all areas of our charity work Your enthusiasm What do our beneficiaries get? The ability to continue our support for children and young people's wellbeing, including offering low-fee or no-fee access Our organisation established as a well-governed Registered Charity A forward-looking and agile organisation, with a well-informed and well-managed Board of trustees I need to know more Contact Mike Allen intrusted@involve.community for more information and arrange to have a no-obligation initial informal discussion (phone, WhatsApp, Teams, Zoom, Meet, etc.)

TESTIMONIALS

I was approached by Danielle for a Trainer opportunity, and was not initially actively looking for a new role. I was never made to feel pressured, was given a lot of information, and was able to ask endless questions. Danielle was extremely accessible and always happy to help. I received an extremely professional service throughout and was offered an amazing opportunity which I accepted!
Angie Lalanne,

Danielle Tramontin, Business Manager, suggested that I apply for a position that I had not previously considered and was extremely helpful in forwarding my existing CV. Low and behold I got an interview and the job. Thank you Danielle without you I would still be looking.

The experience I had (and have had over the years) with TPP is amazing, I must admit it was a pleasure working with Angela and Bita. Working with Angela is more than forwarding your documents to a prospective employer but the process is thorough , professional and you get a lot of guidance and help all the way.
