About Children With Voices

Children With Voices (CWV) is a grassroots non-profit organisation dedicated to improving the lives of children and families through community-driven programs. We run holiday clubs, healthy lifestyle education, and intervention projects for children aged 5–11 to combat childhood obesity, antisocial behaviour, and gang involvement.

Our goal is early intervention – giving children the tools to lead healthier, safer, and more empowered lives.

The Role – Board Member (Volunteer)

We are seeking passionate, community-minded individuals to join our Board of Trustees. As a board member, you will provide oversight, guidance, and strategic support to help CWV grow its reach and impact. You don’t need previous board experience – just the drive to make a difference and bring your unique skills, networks, or community insight to the table.

Key Responsibilities

• Attend and contribute to quarterly board meetings and occasional strategy sessions.
• Support the development of CWV’s strategic vision and community impact.
• Use your professional expertise or lived experience to inform board decisions (e.g. education, youth work, business, legal, HR, marketing, fundraising, etc.).
• Leverage your personal or professional network to promote CWV’s work and connect us with funding, partnerships, or opportunities.
• Ensure CWV operates in line with its charitable aims, legal obligations, and good governance practices.
• Act as an ambassador for CWV at events, with funders, and across your networks.
