The Ripple Effect

We partner with established training providers, license their best programmes, and offer subsidised and fully funded scholarship places to people from underserved communities. Those individuals qualify as health and wellness professionals, return to their communities, and support others to live healthier lives. One trained coach goes on to help dozens, sometimes hundreds, of people over the course of their career. That's the ripple effect we exist to create.

What's Actually Involved

The time commitment is minimal. The impact is not.

🗓️

Four Meetings a Year

Roughly 90 minutes each, held over Zoom. No travel required. We schedule around your availability and keep every meeting focused, productive and respectful of your time.

📧

Occasional Email Decisions

Between meetings, we may circulate decisions by email. Quick reads, clear asks, fast turnarounds. No busywork, no long threads. Just straightforward governance when it matters.

🎓

Free Programme Access

As a trustee you receive complimentary access to the charity's licensed training programmes for your own professional development, giving you firsthand insight into the quality we deliver.

💷

Annual Remuneration

In recognition of your time, expertise and responsibilities, the charity's constitution authorises an annual remuneration of £500 per trustee, in line with Charity Commission guidance on trustee payments.

What We're Looking For

Prior trustee experience isn't required. What matters is that you care about this mission and can commit a few hours each quarter to help us get it right.
