The Landmark Trust is a charity that rescues important buildings that would otherwise be lost.

We take on historic places in danger and carefully and sensitively restore them. By making them available for holidays, we make sure they can be enjoyed by all, both today and for future generations. We have in our care nearly 200 buildings in Britain and several in Italy and France.

Though they range from the sober to the spectacular, all our buildings are rich in history and atmosphere. They include picturesque pavilions and medieval long-houses, artillery forts and Gothick follies, clan chiefs’ castles and cotton weavers’ cottages, the homes of great writers and the creations of great architects, from Browning to Boswell, from Pugin to Palladio.

Keep Scotland Beautiful is the charity that campaigns, acts and educates on a range of local, national and global environmental issues to change behaviour and improve the quality of people’s lives and the places they care for. We are committed to making Scotland clean, green and sustainable.

The Strathmartine Trust was established by the late Dr Ronald Cant to encourage and support the study of all periods of Scottish history, continuing the work to which he devoted most of his life. It is named after the parish north of Dundee where Dr Cant's family originated. The trustees are all volunteers and manage the business of the Trust, which includes operating the Strathmartine Centre, administering the annual grant award schemes, and overseeing the Strathmartine Press.

Fire Fighters Charity is the UK’s leading provider of services that enhance quality of life for serving and retired fire service personnel and their families. Our mission is to place beneficiaries at the heart of everything we do, ensuring that the fire and rescue community can rely on us as its primary point of contact for advice and support. We aim to provide practical assistance and solutions to make a real difference to the lives of members of the fire service community.

For more than 80 years, Fire Fighters Charity has stood side-by-side with the UK’s fire and rescue services community, as a trusted source of support through tough times, an independent shoulder to lean on and an enabler for positive health and wellbeing change.

While our core ethos remains the same today as it was when we were founded in 1943 – to help members of the fire and rescue services community to live healthier and happier lives – our organisation has evolved over the decades.

Today we support over 10,000 people each year. Whether through our centre-based programmes or our range of digital solutions, every year, we provide timely clinical care and wellbeing support to thousands of members of the UK’s fire services and their loved ones.

Our services help our fire heroes to adapt to physical and emotional injuries, illness and conditions, be fit for work, transition to life after their service and to feel valued and recognised.

progression. In addition to industry funding, ScreenSkills receives public funding from the BFI for Bursaries, and also receives specific funding from the Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS)

Die AWO-Freiburg ist ein Verband der freien Wohlfahrtspflege und Träger zahlreicher Einrichtungen und sozialer Dienste mit über 700 Beschäftigten sowie rund 300 ehrenamtlichen Mitarbeiterinnen und Mitarbeitern.

The Fair Credit Charity (FCC)’s vision is for a future where everyone has access to ‘fair credit’ – loans with reasonable interest rates, no hidden penalties and flexible repayments. Doing so, we believe, will help to alleviate and eradicate poverty and foster a society built on trust. To take practical steps, we founded the Community Interest Company (CIC), Fair for You, an ethical and responsible lender in 2015. To date 375,000 loans have been issued worth over £85m. The Charity still owns the CIC but wants to encourage more organisations like it.

To do that we need to influence financial, legislative and regulatory institutions to help create an ethical and responsible lending environment in which financially excluded people are better served.

We believe that financial services in the UK are prejudiced against far too many people and we want to use our knowledge and established experience of creating inclusive and ethical financial services to build an environment to enable all businesses serving financially excluded people to thrive.

We’re on a mission to create a happier and kinder world and we’re looking for new Trustees to join our Board.

The mission of Action for Happiness is to help people create a happier world, with a culture that prioritises happiness and kindness.
We do this by helping people get together regularly (face-to-face where possible) to learn evidence-based skills for happier living, feel a sense of belonging and commit to personal action to create more happiness, both for themselves and others.

We have no religious, political or commercial affiliations and welcome people of all faiths (or none) and all parts of society. Members of the movement make a simple pledge: to try to create more happiness in the world.

Our patron is the Dalai Lama.

The Scottish Police Authority is independent of both the Scottish Government and policing. It is the primary governance body for policing in Scotland, and was established as a public body on 1 April 2013 by the Police and Fire Reform (Scotland) Act 2012.

It is also responsible for the management and delivery of Forensic Services in Scotland and Independent Custody Visiting Scotland.

Transplant Sport are the largest national charity promoting active recovery for transplant recipients and increasing awareness of the benefits of organ donation.

We host the British Transplant Games every year and participants of all ages and ability enjoy taking part in over 20 different events. All have received a life saving transplant and celebrate their gift of life together. Some of our very sporty members also compete at the World Transplant Games for Team GB & NI.

We want to encourage all transplant recipients to get active and be healthy whilst promoting organ donation so we organise other activities (volleyball, racquets, golf etc) throughout the year. Taking part, regardless of ability, is what we’re about.

English Heritage cares for over 400 historic buildings, monuments and sites - from world-famous prehistoric sites to grand medieval castles, from Roman forts on the edges of the empire to a Cold War bunker. Through these, we bring the story of England to life for over 10 million people each year.

Are you passionate about ensuring the UK is ready to deal with the impacts of climate change? Do you want to be part of the leading independent body that provides advice to the UK and devolved governments on preparing for climate change?

The Adaptation Committee has two statutory roles under the UK Climate Change Act 2008. The first is to advise the UK government and devolved governments on its assessment of the risks and opportunities from climate change.

The second is to report to Parliament on its evaluation of the quality and implementation of actions in the UK government’s National Adaptation Programme (England and matters reserved to the UK government only). In addition, the devolved governments can make requests to the Adaptation Committee for evaluation of their national adaptation programmes under the Climate Change Act 2008 and other relevant devolved legislation.

The Bell Foundation is a charity which aims to overcome exclusion through language education by working with partners on innovation, research, training and practical interventions.

The Bell Foundation was established in 2012 and over the last decade has grown significantly and is now recognized as an expert in English as a Second or Additional Language. Our vision is to create opportunities, change lives, and overcome exclusion through language education. We are delivering this vision through two different strategic programmes, targeting children with English as an Additional Language (EAL), and adults who speak English as a Second or Additional Language (ESOL). Through our work we aim to achieve system change to enable better outcomes for many vulnerable groups who use English as a Second or Additional Language, including women who have been trafficked, prisoners, victims of domestic abuse, unaccompanied asylum-seeking children, refugees, adult asylum seekers, children from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, and migrant workers at risk of exploitation.
