I'm ill-equipped to suggest any good cheeses, but if any of your friends are lactose intolerant, maybe include some of the dairy-free slices? They're not as good as real cheese but they're better than no cheese (or the pain of "I'll just have some cheese anyway and deal with it" lol).
Well, I'M lactose intolerant, so I welcome these suggestions. Which ones do you like?
I mostly get the shredded style to use as toppings which probably wouldn't work for the charcuterie board.

If you want to put out cheese cubes, Daiya makes "block" style as well.
They have other varieties, but I usually stick with cheddar style when making a charcuterie board:
