Our Board

‘Piw yw an rewler omma?’ Who’s in charge around here?

Time, energy, blood, sweat and tears; our talented board of advisors give it all.

We’re a community interest company developing and delivering cultural projects that uncover and celebrate Cornwall’s distinctiveness and diversity. We know that a diverse board makes decisions more effectively and we’re committed to improving our processes, to make sure that our board reflects the diverse communities we collaborate with.  

We are an open-minded organisation when it comes to recruitment: your gender, age, skin colour, sex life, religion, disability, any other protected characteristic or whatever makes you you, is just part of the diversity we actively celebrate. 

If you’re interested in joining our board, let us know what skill, expertise or wisdom you might bring.
