Lay Trustees | College of Sport, Exercise and Musculoskeletal Medicine (CSEM)

Help shape the future of Sport, Exercise and Musculoskeletal Medicine in the UK.

CSEM is approaching a defining moment as the Faculty of Sport and Exercise Medicine and the British Association of Sport and Exercise Medicine come together to create a single, unified College.

This is an opportunity to contribute at Board level during a significant period of change, helping CSEM strengthen professional standards, support its members and pursue its overarching vision to improve the health of the nation through physical activity.

Time commitment: Trustees are expected to attend at least four Board meetings each year, held virtually or in person, alongside preparation, strategic discussions and occasional College activities.
