Could you be one of our new trustees?

Hackney CVS empowers local charities and community groups to develop sustainable and financially viable solutions to the long-term challenges facing City and Hackney residents.

We serve two growing, diverse boroughs with the most vibrant voluntary and community sector (VCS) in London.

Our aims are to support the local VCS to have a stronger voice, to act as an effective bridge between the VCS, Hackney’s communities, the statutory sector and funders, and to support a thriving VCS.

This is an exciting time to join our board of trustees. Hackney CVS is undergoing a bold and strategic period of organisational change – realigning to its core purpose and building a focused model of support that delivers greater impact.

As a new trustee, you will play a key role in helping to strengthen our governance and supporting the team to deliver on an ambitious vision for the future of infrastructure support and community leadership.
