We're Recruiting Trustees!

Updated: Jun 28



Why We Need New Trustees

Two of our founding Trustees when we registered as a CIO are reaching the end of their second terms in June 2024, as well as several Trustees stepping away at the end of their first terms due to changing personal circumstances. We are delighted that two other founding volunteer members have become Trustees which leaves us in a good position of retaining historical information and expertise combined with new Trustees and skills we wish to recruit.


Who We Need

We are looking for up to 3 new Trustees to join 4 other Trustees, making a Board of up to 7. Following a Spring 2024 skills audit, we have identified a need for the following skills and experience on our Board:

  • Strategic and change management

  • Finance

  • Marketing

  • Grant fundraising from Trusts & Foundations

  • Community fundraising

  • HR

  • Lived experience of prison environment


Our Journey So Far

Following Covid-19 restrictions stopping Sing Inside’s work entirely in prisons, we have rebuilt our relationships and our understanding of how the prison environment and need for our work has changed.


Until 2023, we were entirely volunteer-led. We then made the decision to instate a part-time Chief Executive role as a salaried post, to put the charity on a more sustainable and balanced footing. We then recruited a Programme Manager to oversee existing work with committees and visits. At the start of 2024, our first Chief Executive, one of the founding volunteer members of Sing Inside, stepped away and we recruited a new Chief Executive to help lead Sing Inside into its next stage of development. We are supported by a freelance bid writer and a variety of volunteers providing advice and guidance.
