The Blue Lamp Trust is seeking to appoint new Trustees in 2026 to strengthen Board capability and support future growth.
The charity supports residents across Hampshire and the Isle of Wight, with a mission to ensure that vulnerable people feel safe and secure in their homes and online.
We have an additional ambition to improve road safety nationally, delivering driver training through a wholly owned trading subsidiary, BLT Driver Training.
Trustees play a pivotal role in setting strategy, ensuring good governance, and safeguarding the Trust’s values and impact.
