Voluntary Action Leeds (VAL) is looking for individuals to stand for election as trustees, offering an exciting opportunity to help shape and strengthen the organisation’s work across the city.

We are looking for committed and passionate individuals who share our vision and values. As a trustee, you will play a vital role in guiding the organisation, supporting its strategic direction, and ensuring it continues to make a meaningful impact within communities.

Our Board is inclusive, welcoming and committed to continuous improvement. Becoming a trustee is both a serious commitment and a rewarding experience.

VAL is particularly keen to hear from applicants who reflect the rich diversity of Leeds and who are currently under-represented on the Board. This includes individuals from culturally diverse communities, people who identify as LGBTQIA+, and young people.

If you have the skills and experience we’re looking for, we would love to hear from you!
