Are you passionate about improving the lives of children and young people?
Do you believe in the power of creativity, self-expression and the arts to support mental health and wellbeing?

Elevator Arts is looking for committed and enthusiastic individuals to join our founding Board of Trustees as we explore an exciting transition from a CIC to a registered charity.

You don't need previous trustee experience, we're keen to hear from people who share our values and want to help young people thrive.
We particularly welcome expressions of interest from people who are currently underrepresented in charity governance, including younger trustees, people from ethnically diverse backgrounds, disabled people, and those with lived experience of the communities we serve.

Interested? We'd love to have an informal conversation.

📧 Contact [email protected] to arrange an initial discussion.
