Trustee vacancy – Judge’s Lodging Trust

The Judge’s Lodging is an award-winning, accredited museum that interprets and preserves the history of Radnorshire’s late-Georgian courthouse and associated Judge’s Lodgings Hall. Through period rooms, exhibitions and events, the Victorian lodging and court room provide an authentic, hands-on exploration of law and order in 19^th century society.

It’s an exciting time for The Judge’s Lodging. The Trust has just been awarded an NLHF grant that will enable it to embark on a major capital works project to convert unused parts of the heritage building into holiday lets. Once operational, the flats will provide a sustainable source of income for this valuable heritage asset on the Welsh border.

To help us realise this ambitious project, we are seeking a new Trustee to complement the skills already represented on the Board. We are keen to hear from individuals with a background in heritage; expertise in marketing and/ or fundraising would be an advantage. The Board meets every six to eight weeks, both in person and virtually, so you don’t need to live locally to apply.
