This is a fabulous opportunity for you to have a leading role on the Board of a successful charity that is achieving real change for people with learning disabilities, autistic people, or people with other support needs, and their families.
We are keen to recruit a social care leader and people with a background in marketing, branding, digital media or communications.
About us
The Association for Real Change (ARC) is a national charity which works in England, Wales, Northern Ireland and Scotland.

To do this we bring people together. We support them to share different views and experiences. We help them to agree and take action to achieve real change through training, research, networks, collective advocacy and policy.
