Elizabeth Gaskell’s House – Young Trustee Opportunity

Elizabeth Gaskell’s House is approaching its 10th anniversary of opening to the public and they are looking to recruit two trustees aged 18-30 to help develop and progress as they enter their second decade as a museum.

During 2024 Elizabeth Gaskell’s House is taking part in the ‘Engaging your First Young Trustees’ programme with Kids in Museums which will provide additional support to the organisation during the recruitment process. The House has a long-standing commitment to the representation of young people in the staff & volunteer teams and would like to see this is reflected at Board level. This is a voluntary role but access costs related to meeting the duties of the role can be covered. The organisation is also committed to giving the young trustees development opportunities that they hope will enable them to learn new skills and gain experience in a trustee role.

Applications from all backgrounds and experiences are encouraged.

Closing date – 11 October
