Chair of Trustees

Location

Lyndhurst, Hampshire | United Kingdom

Job description

We are a positive and determined little charity, founded in 1979, and situated in an area of spectacular natural beauty and rich cultural heritage.

We welcome over 150,000 local people and visitors to our Centre in Lyndhurst each year.

With our archive of over 50,000 books, maps, photographs, art, documents, and objects, we have so many different stories to tell of life and landscape. We have a café, a shop, a gallery, and a museum with opportunity for change.

We have a long-term strategy to form. Over our first 45 years we have established deep foundations from which to stride out into our next 45. We will become fresh, absorbing, and even better at championing the New Forest and its dual role as a vital resource for climate understanding, as well as a place for relaxation and enjoyment.

We need a fantastic new Chair to take over from our brilliant and passionate outgoing Chair, who is retiring. We need someone to lead us and inspire us to find our future. Someone with the qualities to help drive us forward, help us reach even more audiences, and invigorate our great team.
