Our mission is to:

• Double the number of trustees aged 30 and under on charity boards across England and Wales by 2024. (while the spotlight is on the age factor, our movement is part of a wider call for diversity on boards).
• Changing the image of what a trustee looks like, by shining a light on the impact made by young trustees.
• Define what conditions allow for safe spaces where all young people can genuinely add their perspective.

To achieve this, we are:

• Running a campaign that challenges the perceptions of who a trustee should be

• Building the infrastructure to enable current Young Trustees to lead the movement across England and Wales

• Creating physical cohort based training programmes

• Host a digital hub that enables:

  • People to connect with and promote relevant Young Trustee opportunities

  • Those in the movement to have access to relevant resources

  • A place for current, former and aspiring young trustees to:

    • Have access to a supportive network of peers
    • Give feedback on ideas, resources and co-create solutions to problems
    • Develop skills and knowledge to be an effective trustee
