We are looking for new trustees to help LifeCare in its great work supporting local people
LifeCare is a forward-thinking growing charity established in 1941, that supports people 50+ across Edinburgh through a wide range of community-based support services, alongside running a community Café and Hub which is open to the public. We employ over 80 staff and are supported by a diverse range of volunteers.
“I’ve noticed a difference since LifeCare’s visits started. When I call Dad, he is more upbeat and chattier than he has been in ages.”
Our Board of Trustees is made up of up to 12 amazing people who give up their time to benefit the organisation and those we support by sharing their own skills, knowledge and experiences to provide our governance and leadership.
As a board we routinely audit our skills, and we are currently seeking two new Board Members who could bring expertise in any of the following areas to our organisation:
• Communications and/or Marketing
• Venue/centre management or hospitality
• Lived experience as an unpaid carer to an older person
• Running a Social Enterprise
The role is non-remunerated however expenses will be reimbursed, and training/ongoing support will be provided. The board usually meets early evening either in person or online.
If you would like an informal chat about the role before considering applying, please contact sarahvanputten@lifecare-edinburgh.org.uk .
