Join Disability Equals Ability as our Honorary Treasurer
Help shape a future where disabled voices lead the way. We’re seeking someone to oversee our finances and strengthen our mission to empower and uplift the disability community as a growing, small charity.
What difference will you make?
This role is crucial to ensuring that Disability Equals Ability remains financially sustainable as we grow our reach and deepen our impact.
Your expertise will help us:
- Build stronger financial systems and policies that support long-term stability.
- Ensure our funding and spending align with our strategic goals and values.
- Strengthen the board’s confidence in making informed, evidence-based decisions.
- Maintain transparency and accountability in how we manage charitable funds.
As Treasurer, you’ll not only help safeguard the organisation’s future but also empower us to invest more in advocacy, creative campaigns, and community projects that celebrate disability equality.
You’ll be joining a team that values accessibility, lived experience, and collaboration. Together, we’re working to break down barriers, shift perceptions, and build a world where disabled people have equal opportunities to lead, create, and thrive.
Your contribution will ensure that our financial health matches our vision — strong, sustainable, and inclusive.
What are we looking for?
We’re looking for someone who is passionate about disability equality and inclusion, and who shares our belief that lived experience should be at the heart of leadership.

No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Our ideal Treasurer will bring experience in financial management, accounting, or charity finance, along with a good understanding of governance and compliance. Experience in bid writing, grant funding, or income generation would be a real advantage, as we continue to grow and strengthen our impact as a small charity.
You don’t need to be a qualified accountant, but you should feel comfortable analysing financial information, communicating it clearly to others, and supporting good financial decision-making at Board level.
We’d love to hear from people who:
- Have knowledge of charity finances, budgeting, and financial controls.
- Can support with developing financial policies and systems that are proportionate for a small, volunteer-led organisation.
- Have experience in sourcing or managing funding, grants, or partnerships.
- Are confident contributing to strategic discussions and helping the board plan for sustainable growth.
- Are collaborative, open-minded, and committed to accessibility and inclusion.
Lived experience of disability or a strong understanding of the barriers faced by disabled people would be particularly valued.
At Disability Equals Ability, we welcome trustees from all backgrounds — especially those who bring new perspectives, enthusiasm, and a desire to help shape a fairer, more inclusive world.
