Pathway is the UK’s leading homeless healthcare charity, helping the NHS to create hospital teams to support homeless patients. Pathway has supported 11 hospitals to create homeless healthcare teams, helping over 3500 patients every year. Many of the people they support have complex combinations of physical illness, mental illness and substance misuse problems, and histories of trauma and abuse.

Pathway is working towards a society where socially excluded, homeless and vulnerable people find equity in all health and care services they receive.

Pathway was founded to show that homelessness is a healthcare problem. Good health services have a vital part to play in helping people with their health, but they can also help patients address the problems that led them to the street.

We are seeking new Trustees who are highly credible and engaged senior leaders to support Pathway’s motivated and collaborative Trustee Board. As a Trustee, you will ensure that Pathway has a clear vision, mission and strategic direction to achieve its charitable ambitions. You will be committed to delivering meaningful outcomes and improving the lives of people who are socially excluded, homeless and vulnerable.

You will bring personal gravitas, integrity, strong interpersonal skills, emotional intelligence and a commitment to understanding the principles of equality and diversity, including a willingness to learn more about the impact of homelessness and associated health issues.

We are seeking up to three Trustees who bring experience in one or more of the following areas;

– communications/branding

– legal experience

– governance experience

– charity leadership experience

– HR experience

We welcome people from all backgrounds. Each applicant will be individually assessed regardless of gender, sexual orientation, pregnancy, or maternity, marital or civil partner status, gender reassignment, ethnicity, colour, national origin, religion or belief, disability, or age.
