This isn't your normal "looking for work" post.
I've decided to shut my business and do more volunteer / community work.
If you know of an organisation which could use a board member with strong digital skills, extensive experience in open source and open standards, or cybersecurity please let me know.
Nothing full time. Personal recommendations preferred. Feel free to share.

in reply to Terence Eden • • •my employer (a Scottish charity) places specialist volunteers with charities, based on defined needs. Ranges from board appointments through to an hour or twos advising.

in reply to Terence Eden • • •thanks. It is pretty much entirely remote. Board roles are obviously a certain commitment but the extent to which general specialist advising / support is given is entirely at the volunteer's discretion - my SVN colleagues operate as the matchmaker and then you decide how far you want to take it. Most volunteering done is a few hours in total, but some volunteers go on to get heavily involved with a charity.
While we work only in Scotland, we do work with a lot of UK-wide charities.

As a double agent.
If successful the benefits to the British public would be immense.
