UK Deaf Sport Board Directors x 3

UK Deaf Sport works with key partners to ensure that deaf children, young people and adults have equal opportunities to participate and excel in sport and physical activity as their hearing counterparts from grassroots to elite level. We also select and manage the DeaflympicsGB Team, the official team that represents Great Britain at the Summer and Winter Deaflympics.

UK Deaf Sport is seeking three new Board Directors. The Board sets and implements the overall direction and strategy of the organisation and has responsibility for the oversight of financial, risk management, governance, equality, diversity and inclusion matters. Directors of the Board are expected to actively and positively contribute to discussions and decisions in these areas.

We are looking for new Board Directors with experience and skills in one or more of the following areas:

Commercial partnerships, sponsorship and fundraising.
The Code of Sport Governance.
Legal.

These are voluntary roles, but reasonable expenses will be paid where directly related to the work of UK Deaf Sport.

We specifically welcome applications from those with lived experience of deafness and from the deaf community.

UK Deaf Sport is the leading organisation for deaf sport in the UK. Our vision is Every Deaf Person Active and Inspired by Sport and Physical Activity. Our mission is for more deaf people to participate in sport throughout their lives and more deaf athletes to perform on the world stage.
