We are looking for new people to join our established and experienced Board of trustees.
Foundation66 was formed in February 2009, following the merger of two of London’s oldest alcohol and drug charities, ARP and Rugby House. The two charities brought together a combined 66 years’ experience in the alcohol and drug sector.

We now need 3 new trustees to bring the Board up to the maximum membership of 12.Foundation66 is a socially progressive, professionally-managed organisation.

- Financial knowledge and experience, with an accountancy qualification
- Business & entrepreneurial experience, to support in particular our marketing and fundraising initiatives
- Knowledge of Health and social care sectors including the commissioning of services by the statutory sector.
