Daybreak February 1, 2026

Closing date: 15 February

Deadline: 15 February 2026

Join our Board of Trustees as Treasurer
Who we are
Registered in 1999, Daybreak is a charity whose foundations are in growing the
practice of Family Group Conferences in the UK. From this, we have seen the
positive impact that occurs when families and communities are empowered to take
action when faced with challenging situations.
People and communities often feel disempowered – especially those whose lives are
influenced by the systems around them. However, we know that people can take
action to support each other and choose what action to take when given the right
opportunity to have their voice heard.
This is why we believe in a world where families, people’s wider social networks, and
communities work together to make decisions and proactively solve the problems
affecting their lives.
Now, utilising a range of solution-focused approaches and working alongside partner
organisations and within the community, we bring people together to create
opportunities for them to communicate, work together, and choose what actions to
take, in order to move forward, be safe, and thrive.
Throughout our various programs, our work centres around the principles of
voluntary participation, transparency and openness for all, advocacy for those who
need it, and for our contribution to be facilitative not prescriptive.
Who we’re looking for
We are looking to welcome a new Treasurer to our Board of Trustees.
To serve as one of Daybreak’s trustees is to play a fundamental role in enabling our
charity to pursue its vision, mission, and values. Your contribution to discussions and
decision-making at the highest level of our organization will ensure that we can
continue to provide our services to those in need of our support.
In addition to the general duties of a Trustee, as Treasurer, your input will be critical
to safeguarding the financial integrity and sustainability of our charity. You will ensure
that appropriate financial measures are upheld and share your insights with the
Board about the financial health of our organisation. Your experience will enable us
to understand the obstacles we face and how we can navigate these challenges.
The role is more focused on strategy than detail. You will offer crucial guidance and
support to management in developing a growth strategy that will allow Daybreak to
reach more people and touch more lives.
There is no requirement for you to have experience as a Trustee. All we need is a
willingness to use your skills and expertise to support Daybreak, a desire to make a
difference for our service users, and a commitment to active participation in the role.

We would especially welcome applications from under-represented sections of
society or those with experience of some of the issues facing our beneficiaries.
The time commitment involved is around thirty hours per year, though a wide range
of opportunities to get involved in the Board’s work will be provided. Board meetings
are usually held quarterly at our head office in Southampton, Hampshire or online.
What we offer
As a trustee you will be given:
– Induction and ongoing support.
– Board-level experience in a friendly environment, with the opportunity to
exercise your existing skills and develop new ones. Our Board contains a
diverse range of individuals from various backgrounds, including business and
family services, and you will be able to tap into and learn from the breadth of
knowledge that they possess.
– Scope to drive a growth strategy designed to expand our services and allow
us to give more families and communities the chance to take control of their
circumstances. Your experience and insight will be vital in enabling us to
channel the power of families and communities coming together to strengthen
the bonds between them.
– A comprehensive insight into the charitable sector, the challenges it faces,
and how these challenges can be overcome.
– The opportunity to make a real difference to the lives of children, young
people, and their families. Your strategic input will help spur positive change
and empower families and communities to overcome their unique challenges,
and you will see the beneficial impact of your decision-making play out across
our services.
– The knowledge that your contribution has helped secure the best possible
results for service users and navigate the challenges our charity faces. By
helping us, you will help families to find more workable solutions to their
problems, while avoiding plans being imposed upon them.
Our board positions are voluntary, but reasonable expenses will be
reimbursed.
How to apply
– Please read the full job description and person specification before applying.
– To submit an application, please download the application pack and email
to headoffice@daybreakfgc.org.uk

Applications should be submitted by 15 February 2026. Interviews will be held week beginning 23 February 2026.
– To arrange an informal chat about these positions, please email
trustees@daybreakfgc.org.uk.

The Lorna Young Foundation December 9, 2025

Closing Date: Open. Based: Registered in Huddersfield – but working internationally and nationally

The Lorna Young Foundation was founded in 2003 after Lorna Young, a founder of Cafe Direct, who single-handedly achieved the first placing of fairly traded products in British supermarkets.

We work to support rural farming communities in low income countries to gain more value from the crops they grow – informing them about ethical certification schemes, how to improve crop yields, counter climate change impacts and to take more control of their own livelihoods.  Our flagship Farmers’ Voice Radio initiative has trained and supported rural communities across Africa, Latin America and Asia to create and run their own community radio programmes, reaching millions of people in remote areas where other forms of communication are redundant.

We also work with marginalised communities in the UK through our Not Just Us programme, providing them with skills and support to create ethical enterprises, and with an appreciation of humanity’s collective global connectivity and interdependence.

This is a unique and exciting chance to join an unusual ‘small but mighty’ charity as our Treasurer to support us on our strategic financial approach and assist with our operational and reporting requirements. We seek a like-minded individual who cares about ethics, social justice and the alleviation of poverty.
