>> Do you have a feel for which of these banks will expect, and to what
degree? As someone that lives in two places (parent's home and rented
accommodation) and has bills at the latter, and is a postgraduate
student (i.e. on the fuzzy line between student and employee), but
meets the other two points, I'm wondering if I fall between too many
lines to be useful on the initial board.

I've just opened a business bank account with HSBC and this is what they asked for:
One document from List A (Confirmation of Name):
- HMRC Tax notification - e.g. PAYE Notice of Coding, WFTC notice, Children's Tax Credit notice (not P45/P60)
- Bank or Building Society statement for your personal account dated within the last 6 months and showing receipt of salary and payment of utility bills - online statements are not acceptable
- Construction Industry photot registration card
Alternatively bring your Valid UK Passport, Full UK Photo Driving License or Nationali ID card to a branch.
plus:
One Document from List B (Confirmation of Address)
- HMRC Tax notification - e.g. PAYE Notice of Coding, WFTC notice, Children's Tax Credit notice (not P45/P60)
- Utility/Council Tax bill dated within the last 6 months
- Credit card statement within last 6 months (not online)
- Mortgage statement within 12 months (not online)
- Motor insurance certificate (unexpired not cover note)
- Rent Card or Rent Book (council / RHA not private landlord)
This gives you an idea. Each bank's list seems to be slightly different but they all ask for one thing proving name (normally includes passport / driving license) and one thing proving address (normally includes utility bill)
Note that banks will not necessarily need this info for all five trustees - sometimes just the main officers will do.
