Living Streets, the UK charity for everyday walking, is inviting applications for new non-executive directors to join the Board of its trading arm, Living Streets Services (LSS). We want to expand the experience represented on the board and ensure a balance of skills in order to support the organisation achieve its strategic objectives.

On the LSS Board, we are seeking additional non-executive director(s). We are looking for people who have skills and experience particularly in the commercial sector or social enterprise.

Above all, we are looking for passion, fresh ideas and a desire to improve our streets. Whatever your background, a commitment to the values and objectives of the charity overall will be crucial.

This is a pivotal time in our history: with a dynamic and experienced new Chief Executive, Catherine Woodhead; and a period of development, with a new strategy incoming that will take us towards our centenary in 2029. 

We are a charity which can influence anyone’s daily life. 

With our thousands of members and supporters we run campaigns for positive change and influence policies that improve our streets such as encouraging families to walk to school, 20mph speed limits and controlling pavement parking. 

We manage innovative national projects, engaging schools, communities and workplaces to encourage more people to walk short journeys. Our year-round walk to school challenge captures the imagination of children in over 2000 schools. 

We work with local authorities and businesses to improve streets and public spaces. Our reports, such as The Pedestrian Pound, make a substantial contribution to the active travel agenda. 

We actively welcome applications from people from a diverse range of backgrounds generally and from all parts of the UK. 

Walk with us.
