Are you a trustee under 30 or aspiring to become one? Join us at our Young Trustees' Community Cafe!
When 1/12 trustees are named either John or David and fewer than 3% of trustees are under 30, it’s no secret that board diversity is an issue.
The Young Trustees Community Cafe is a space for young people interested in governance to make meaningful networks and learn from one another.
This space was created by popular demand from young trustees like you. Connect with fellow young trustees, exchange insights, and dive into invaluable resources.
Structure of each session:
- Hear about trustee vacancies
- Q&A with a young trustee
- Breakout rooms for networking, sharing advice, and having meaningful conversations
- Reflections and feedback
The Q&A session, for the first 20 minutes, is open to all, but following this the cafe will be a young person only space for those under 30.
Whether you're here to share your experiences or gather fresh ideas, this is your go-to spot for energising conversations and meaningful connections.
Don’t miss out on this exciting opportunity to be part of a thriving community. Spend an hour in lively discussions, networking, and empowering each other. RSVP, and spread the word!

We're looking for new trustees to join Ealing and Hanwell Scouts District Trustee Board!
What are trustees? Trustees are a team of volunteers who see the big picture, make decisions, and work together to help Scouts run smoothly.
Trustees play a key part in Scouts, and keep an eye on our vision. They make sure young people have the best experience at Scouts, and check things are being done safely and legally.
Trustees support leaders to deliver a fantastic programme, while having a laugh, making new friends, and learning new skills themselves. The Ealing and Hanwell District Trustee board supports the work of all the different Scout groups across Ealing and Hanwell, as well as the campsite in Stoke Poges owned by the District.
Role details Trustees would be appointed for an initial one year term from September 2025 with the opportunity to extend. The trustee board meets every 2 months
