About us

The Super Power Agency exists to help young people write their story and to stay with them while they grow into it.

We are a small organisation with big ideas, grounded in the belief that creative writing is not a ‘nice to have’, but an essential skill.

Writing builds confidence, literacy, empathy and self-expression.

When young people are given the space to imagine freely and the structure to shape their ideas, their worlds open up.

The Role

We are looking for someone who believes in the long game. Someone who understands that impact is not only measured in numbers, but in confidence gained, stories remembered, and lives quietly shaped. Someone who can offer strategic guidance, governance oversight and thoughtful challenge all while holding fast to the values that make this organisation special.

The coming years are significant. We are growing our reach, deepening partnerships, expanding into new communities,

and working towards a long-held ambition: creating a dedicated writing centre where young people can flourish and write freely.

As our Chair of Trustees, you’ll provide leadership, support and a bit of magic to help guide our charity’s vision and direction.

• Lead the Board in shaping our strategy and keeping our mission at the heart of every decision.
• Work closely with the CEO to champion creativity, confidence and sustainability across everything we do.
• Be an ambassador for the Super Power Agency by helping to build partnerships, open doors and spread our story far and wide.
• Ensure our governance and finances are strong, inclusive and focused on supporting young people.

This role is perfect for someone who wants to make a real difference while bringing their leadership, collaboration and

imagination to the table.
