Description
The Royal Hospital for Neuro-disability (RHN) is a charity, independent from the NHS but working closely with it, to provide the best possible care for people living with neuro-disability. The RHN exists today as one of the oldest, independent charity hospitals in the UK, which has now been caring for people with complex neuro-disability for over 160 years.
At RHN, we don’t just treat people with profound disabilities, we care for them as individuals, creating care plans that resonate with them on a personal level, and offering practical and emotional support to them and their families every step of their journey.
Our ‘The Path to Excellence’ strategy embodies the RHN’s commitment to continuous improvement and innovation. With recent successes like being the first independent UK hospital to receive ANCC Pathway to Excellence® accreditation and having been awarded with the Race Equality Matters Bronze Trailblazer Status, we show we are capable of fantastic achievements.
As we look to the future, RHN is seeking new trustees to join in our mission. We are looking for individuals who share our passion and dedication to providing exceptional care, innovative research, and shaping the future of care for those affected by complex brain injury and neurological conditions.
We are seeking to appoint four more trustees to be Board members and members of at least one major committee.
The Board is looking for the following areas of specialism to complement our already strong leadership structure:
- Fundraising - an experienced and entrepreneurial fundraising leader that can demonstrate impact at scale and is equipped to drive strategy and growth including diversification of funding sources
- Technology – someone who can support the hospital to harness data insight and use Digital, Data, Technology and AI to drive strategy to support the ambitions of the charity
- Human Resources – an experienced HR leader that brings experience of delivering people strategy and organisational development initiatives in complex environments
- Legal - someone who can bring knowledge and skills from practising law to the hospital, ensuring compliance, sound governance and adherence to charity law
The RHN is a diverse organisation, in its staff and its patients and residents, and is keen that its Board of Governors should reflect that diversity. While it is essential that the Board must contain members with significant Board experience, the RHN welcomes applicants with less direct Board experience who have the other skills which it is seeking and can make an important contribution to the Board as a whole.
