The Guild is looking for a Student of the University of Birmingham to join our Trustee Board.
Our charity Trustee Board is ultimately responsible for making the big decisions about the running of

to support and guide the organisation’s work.

The Guild welcomes applications from a wide range of backgrounds and in particular we welcome
applications from people of colour as we seek to continually increase diversity within our
governance structures.

This role is not remunerated; however reasonable expenses (travel etc) will be reimbursed. Please
