Forward Arts Foundation – the charity behind National Poetry Day and the Forward Prizes for Poetry – is looking for a new Chair and Trustees to join its board.
We're a small, ambitious team working nationally and online to celebrate poetry, support new voices, and widen accessibility. With a reach of over 2.4 million people each year, we're looking for board members who can help us grow and govern well.
We're particularly keen to hear from prospective Chairs and Trustees with experience in education, digital, fundraising and philanthropy, or governance and leadership. We'd also welcome the chance to support people under the age of 30 take their first step into trusteeship.
Our meetings are flexible, online-friendly, and inclusive by design. Poetry is for everyone - and we want our board to reflect that.
