As well as sorting out the last minute details for GovCamp 2026 we're also planning for the long term. We want to set up GovCamp as an official non-profit company. To do that we need a Board of Trustees. We've previously asked for volunteers but, while good people, they're all straight white men.

What about asking at GovCamp 2026, pitching a session about the future and the duties of a trustee?

Maybe - I already have 3 other ideas!

If you or someone you know might be interested in helping us build a more diverse set of GovCamp trustees please get in touch.

What would being a trustee involve?

Might be worth making use of a service like @reachvolunteering.org.uk to get a more diverse set of trustees.
