A little bit about us…

‘We use ‘trans’ as an umbrella term for people that are binary trans, non-binary,
genderqueer, genderfluid, agender or of other non-cisgender genders, including
those of non-Western origin.’

The Charity

Mermaids has been supporting trans children, young people, and their families since
1995. Mermaids has evolved into one of the UK’s leading LGBTQ+ charities,
empowering thousands of people with its secure online communities, local community
groups, helpline services, web resources, events, training, policy and stakeholder
engagement and residential weekends.

We also seek to educate and inform wider society on gender identity by helping
professionals accommodate and reassure gender diverse young people. Over the
years, we’ve seen many changes in the language and understanding surrounding
gender issues, but one thing remains the same: trans children deserve the freedom and
confidence to explore their gender identity wherever their journey takes them, free from
fear, isolation and discrimination.

What You Can Expect

In supporting our mission to create lasting, positive change for trans people, now and for
generations to come, you will receive our full support to thrive in your role. This includes
comprehensive  training,  opportunities  for  professional  development,  a  contributory
pension,  generous  holiday  entitlement,  access  to  external  supervision,  and  a  range  of
additional benefits.

Message from the CEO
Thank you for your interest in the role of Fundraising

to join the charity; there’s no other organisation like
Mermaids. Whatever you do here you will be
supporting our work to achieve our mission and make
positive change for transgender, non-binary, gender
diverse children and young people for generations to

important than ever for the charity to step up.

If you want to be involved in one of the most significant civil rights movements of our
time, then this is where you need to be. This role will be crucial in driving forward our
trusts, foundations and corporate partnerships work to build strong, mutually beneficial
relationships to support our mission.

I joined the organisation as Chief Executive Officer in November 2025, bringing with me
a long-standing commitment to youth advocacy and inclusive leadership. Supporting
trans, non-binary and gender-diverse young people is central to my work. Throughout
my career, I have championed policies that promote safety, dignity and equal access to
opportunities, and I continue to listen closely to the communities we serve to ensure
their experiences guide our direction. I am dedicated to fostering a culture of respect,
belonging, and meaningful change for all young people.

If you have the passion and drive to help us achieve our vision. I look forward to hearing
from you and, hopefully, joining us soon.

Yours,
Jo Hardy

· A fluent Preacher of the Gospel and Teacher of the Faith;

· Keen to work with, and minister to, the Primary School and the younger residents of the Benefice, whilst at the same time valuing older generations in our communities

· Convinced that the all-age growth of each of our churches is nothing less than a Gospel imperative;

· Committed to building further collaboration between the seven churches of the planned Benefice, and to strengthening our relationship with the Anglican Shrine, with the Deanery and with the Diocese

· Prepared to oversee the retired clergy in the Benefice by offering them pastoral care, as well as inviting them to share in his ministry on occasion

· Committed to the further development of the ecumenical links throughout the Benefice;

· A discreet listener, an effective Spiritual Director and experienced Confessor;

· Committed to visiting all his parishioners in health and in sickness, whether at home, in care, or in hospital and to the necessary Celebration of the Sacraments in their presence, especially for those in end-of-life care;

· Willing and able to travel where necessary at all times of the day or night

· Interested in, and has an appreciation of, our mediaeval churches, and their maintenance and improvement

· Prepared to delegate to those willing and able to assist
