Could you support JRSST-CT’s bold new strategy to tackle political inequality and expand democratic participation?
We are now seeking a new Chair of the Board to lead this exciting next chapter, alongside a new Trustee to join our Board and support the delivery of our new strategy.
JRSST-CT is an independent democracy-focused grant-making charity connected to the Joseph Rowntree Reform Trust. We fund work that supports inclusive political participation, civic education, and reform, with a strong focus on the people who are most excluded from democratic power, such as young people, migrants, renters, and people from minoritised backgrounds.
In 2025, we committed to spending down our £4.6m endowment over 10 years to accelerate progress on political inclusion and voter participation. By the end of 2025, we will also host the UK Democracy Fund, a pooled fund that works for a democracy in which everyone can participate, and to make the UK’s voting system fairer, more accessible, and fit for the 21st century.
The closing date for both roles is 9am, Tuesday 26 August 2025
