Trustees of Lung’s board

LUNG seeks to recruit 3 new board members. We are particularly interested in hearing from individuals with specialisms in finance or human resources.

If you feel you have other skills & experience to bring to the charity, we’d like to hear from you. You don’t need to have an arts background or a University degree to be a Trustee, or to have reached any particular stage in your career.

We want to build a strong Board that brings a full range of skills and experience to our governance,. Ideally, we seek trustees who can start with us in autumn 2025, however we recognise that building a team takes time. So if you’re interested in becoming a Trustee, but are not available immediately, we’d encourage you to be in touch so that we know about your interest.

As Board members are recruited for specific skills, they are asked to contribute their expertise to advise and support members of staff on an ongoing basis, working closely with the Co-Directors and other staff as appropriate. There are four formal meetings [online] per year, as well as one annual strategy away day [in person].

We are accepting applicants from anywhere in the UK.
