Spitalfields Music is a learning organisation, with a strong commitment to creating opportunities for people otherwise under-represented in the music sector. This extends into governance, where we offer up to five opportunities to shadow our board of trustees each year, so that Spitalfields Music and the wider arts sector can benefit from more diverse perspectives and experiences.

The programme will encompass four elements:

• A paid-for place on an online ‘Trustee Leadership’ course
• Observer status at the four Spitalfields Music board meetings held between January & December 2025 (likely a mix of online and in-person* meetings)
• A board ‘buddy’, in the form of an existing trustee, to help explain and navigate the responsibilities of directors of the charity
• Pre- and post-board meetings (online) with Spitalfields Music senior leaders so that those on the programme understand fully the agenda, papers, and implications and impact of
  decisions made by trustees
