Citrus Arts, a circus and outdoor arts organisation in Pontypridd in the South Wales valleys, is looking for new trustees to join our small yet mighty board.
Who are Citrus?

We’re an arts charity with a vision of a flourishing creative community rooted in the ethos of the travelling circus.
Citrus’ mission is to use the hands-on skills of circus and outdoor arts life to nurturecitizenship and kindness in our neighbourhood, and to ignite creativity, connecting our community to self, to each other and to the land through hosting spectacular shared experiences.

 
What do we do?


Paid training in outdoor arts technical skills for young people not in education, employment or training (ArtWorkers scheme - see short film)
Outdoor arts and circus installations with and in our community (see Ty Unnos film)
Circus classes for children and adults at our base at Hopkinstown Hall
Rage Rage | Oes Oes a rebellious cultural programme for people who left school before 1990
Creative community events eg NT Live screenings, gigs, performances and community days
 

Who are we looking for?

We are seeking new members to join our board and help us drive the company, ensuring that we work with determination and flair in everything we do.
 
We’re particularly interested in hearing from people who live in Hopkinstown or the local area, who are Welsh speakers and/or who feel their lived experience is underrepresented in the arts or on charity boards. We are also interested in hearing from folks with experience in environmental sustainability, safeguarding, marketing or relationship building, staff management, data protection and/ or venue management. The most important thing, however, is that you are interested in the arts and have a desire and enthusiasm for helping our community and our young people to embrace creativity, citizenship and kindness.
 
A trustee is a person who takes care of the work of a charity, making sure it meets its charitable aims and carries out everything it does in a legal and professional way. Trustees have meetings every few months to check on, plan and discuss the work of the charity. Trustees do not get paid for being trustees, but they do get expenses for any travel etc.
 
Citrus’ board meetings are held around 4 times a year, usually on Zoom, and there are other Citrus creative events we love our board members to attend where possible. These can include screenings, gigs, performances, festival, workshops and much more. We aim to support our board with training and development needs as well as social opportunities.

Currently, Citrus Arts has 4 trustees and we’re looking for 3 or 4 more.
 
To apply, send us an application in any format you would like. You can send a CV if you have one with a covering letter, and audio file or a video. You can apply in English or Welsh. Currently, our board meetings happen in English with some Welsh, and we’re really keen to increase the amount of Welsh spoken. We’d also be happy to support BSL interpretation of meetings if required.
 
If you would like to have an informal chat with one of our current board, or if you have any questions get in touch with our Executive Director Beth: beth@citrusarts.co.uk
 

Deadline for applications: 31st July 2025, 5pm
