Trustee

The Bird of Prey Project is a multi-award-winning visitor attraction and registered charity in Bath, Somerset. Our visitor centre is home to 22 resident birds of prey and owls, and we run multiple conservation and education programmes. Our dedicated team works tirelessly to advocate for wild birds of prey and the ecosystems they live in, as well as to improve the welfare of raptors in captivity in the UK.

We are now seeking new Trustees to join our Board and help guide the next phase of our growth and impact. We welcome applications from candidates who are committed to actively supporting us in our mission to restore habitats, conserve birds of prey and make wildlife education accessible to all.

We are particularly keen to hear from candidates with experience in:

• marketing and communications
• managing a visitor centre or attraction

However, we warmly welcome applications from anyone with an interest in conservation and wildlife.

Commitment

The Board of Trustees meets six times a year, usually in the evening, at or near The Bird of Prey Project, Newton St. Loe, Bath. Attendance via video conferencing is also supported. In addition, Trustees collaborate with the Charity Manager and at times other staff members on an ad hoc basis to help achieve the charity’s aims and objectives.

This is a voluntary, unpaid position offering a rewarding opportunity to make a real difference to the future of birds of prey and their habitats.

Deadline for applications: 9am, Wednesday 28th January 2026.

We look forward to receiving your application!
