Natural Environment

We are looking for new members to join the Natural Environment Advisory Group, to share their unique

expertise and act as critical friends. Natural Environment is one of four voluntary Advisory Groups in the

Trust providing advice and provocation to the discussion of strategic topics commissioned by members

of the Exec team. The other groups are: Commercial, Collections & Interpretation, and Historic

Environment which together cover the areas where external volunteer advice is greatly valued. Natural

Environment Advisory Group members also act as a source of advice and peer review in relation to all

aspects of land, outdoors and nature, be that rural or urban, including: coast, countryside and farmed

land, wildlife, natural aspects of gardens or built structures, environmental change and impact of major

infrastructure. The key areas of Trust strategy this group influences are Restoring a healthy beautiful

natural environment and Looking after what we’ve got.

 

Growing Support

We are looking for new members to join the Growing Support Advisory Group, to share their unique

expertise and act as critical friends. Our Advisory groups are highly respected professionals who give

their time, both as individuals on site, and working as a group at bi-annual meetings, to advise on

strategy and significant projects. The aim is to share our Growing Support plans with a talented

community of volunteer advisers, to encourage debate, challenge and critique to enhance our thinking

and help us ensure successful delivery. Our plans span membership, fundraising, retail, retail online,

food and beverage, holidays and corporate partnerships. We are focused on four areas of

development: effortless engagement, building relationships, sustainable growth and diversifying

funding. This Advisory Group will support the Trust directorate responsible for creating 92% of the

Trust’s income and looks after over 6 million supporters. We are looking for people who are active and

expert in their roles, who are part of commercial or membership-led organisations, part of a visitor

business or engaged in fundraising activities.

 

Kind regards,

 

Isabel Gilbert

Advisory Groups Coordinator
