We are looking for new trustees to join our Board and help us in our mission to encourage the next generation of musicians, artists, producers, directors and cultural leaders to spread joy across Worcestershire. 

Our trustees will work with us to build on our successes, challenging and supporting our dedicated, professional team and helping us to realise our ambition of widening access to participatory arts activities across the county.  

As part of our commitment to skills development we are keen to encourage applications from all individuals. If you have an interest or experience in the arts, music education or running a charity, so much the better, but this is not essential.  

For more information about the role, responsibilities and how to apply, please see our Trustee Information Pack which you can download below. You can also read what some of our trustees have to say via the link below.
