Youth Forum Chair and Go Live Trustee

We are seeking one exceptional individual to step into the leadership role as Chair of the Youth Forum and Trustee on our Board. This unique position offers a valuable experience in governance – you’ll chair six forum meetings per year and attend four Board of Trustee meetings (10 meetings in total).

This crucial role provides a link between the Youth Forum and the Board of Trustees, and the chair will champion the voices of young people across the organisation. It’s a fantastic opportunity for someone looking to build on their leadership skills, advocate for inclusion and opportunities for young people in the arts and gain hands-on experience in governance.

This role is voluntary and previous experience working in theatre is not required. What is most important is passion, enthusiasm, commitment and a willingness to listen and learn.

We are especially keen to hear from young people with lived experience connected to the communities Go Live works with. This includes (but is not limited to):

• Care-experienced young people
• Young carers
• Disabled, D/deaf and neurodiverse young people
• Young people who have attended pupil referral units
• Refugees and/or asylum seekers
• Young people from Global Majority backgrounds
• Young people from a low socio-economic background
• Young people whose families have experienced challenging circumstances.

No previous theatre experience is required. If you’re interested in theatre but haven’t had the chance to get involved yet, please don’t let that stop you.
