Lloyd’s Patriotic Fund is looking for new trustees to share their passion and help set their strategic direction and future vision. As a UK registered charities, it forms part of Lloyd’s responsible business strategy to help create a braver world and help people and communities recover in times of need.
Lloyd’s Patriotic Fund has been bringing together the Lloyd’s insurance market for the last two hundred years to support veterans and their families today.
Founded in 1803, Lloyd’s Patriotic Fund is the oldest military charity of its kind. We are proud of our history and contributions to support the armed forces community, but we recognise that as a charity, we need to adapt to address the needs of veteran’s today. In an increasingly competitive landscape, Lloyd’s Patriotic Fund is committed to uniting support from the market to aid the successful transition to civilian life for veterans and their families.
As part of the trustee board, your job is to ensure the charity achieves its objectives.

You will work as part of a small team of trustees who meet three times per year. Between meetings, you will provide support and advice to the Responsible Business team at Lloyd’s who run the charities.
Thinking about becoming a trustee?
