The board of trustees

About the Board of Trustees

Our Board of Trustees governs StepChange and is ultimately accountable for everything the charity does, although most of the day-to-day activity is carried out by the charity’s colleagues.

Led by Lesley Titcomb CBE, the charity currently has 10 trustees.

As the legal directors of the organisation, our trustees act collectively, bringing together a wide range of individual skills and experience, to help further our charitable purposes.

The Board of Trustees is a dynamic and inclusive group, creating a space that welcomes diverse perspectives, with a real passion and commitment to driving the charity’s mission.

Short biographies for our trustees are available here.

All new trustees receive a full induction to help familiarise themselves with StepChange and its purpose, its wider context, and to identify the role and responsibilities of a trustee. Ongoing training and development is provided to all trustees.

The Board of Trustees also has two committees that support its work

Trustees are normally invited to join one of these:

  • Audit, Risk & Compliance Committee
  • Nomination and Remuneration Committee
