Welcome

Thank you for your interest in the role of Chair of the Board of Trustees at the Sickle Cell Society. We’re delighted that you’re considering joining us at this pivotal time in our journey.

For over 40 years, the Sickle Cell Society has worked tirelessly to improve the lives of individuals living with sickle cell disorder. Through advocacy, support, and awareness-raising, we’ve made significant progress in amplifying the voices of the sickle cell community and driving change in healthcare policy and practice.

As our next Chair, you will have a unique opportunity to build on this legacy and lead the organisation through the next stage of its development. Working closely with the Board of Trustees, Chief Executive, and staff, you will help shape our future strategy and ensure we continue to deliver meaningful impact for those we serve. 

The Board is currently made up of one Chairperson, a Vice Chair, a Trustee Treasurer, and seven board members who oversee the work, strategic direction and governance of the charity.
