Join our board and help shape an intergenerational Scotland Generations Working Together (GWT) is seeking to appoint two committed, proactive and passionate volunteer Trustees to join our Board at a particularly exciting time for intergenerational work.

About the role

We are looking for Trustees with experience in the voluntary, public or private sector who are motivated to contribute strategically to a growing national organisation. You will share our passion for building strong, connected communities across different generations.

We are especially interested in individuals with skills or experience in:

• Human Resources (including organisational development, workforce planning, or learning & development)
• Policy and influencing
• Marketing, communications and audience development
• Strategic leadership or organisational management
• Housing, place-based working or community development
• Environment / climate and regenerative practice
• Work relating to older people

What you will bring

• Our Trustees:
• Provide strategic leadership and oversight
• Act as ambassadors for intergenerational work
• Support the development of GWT’s corporate plan and future direction
• Contribute expertise through Board discussions and occasional task groups

We welcome applications from people who are enthusiastic, dependable and collaborative, and who are keen to contribute their skills to a purpose-driven organisation.

About Generations Working Together

Generations Working Together is the nationally recognised centre of excellence supporting the development and integration of intergenerational work across Scotland. Our mission is to develop, expand and improve IG practice nationwide. Our vision is to live in a Scotland where different generations are more connected, where everyone has opportunities to build relationships that help to create a more inclusive society.

Intergenerational work means relationship-based projects, activities and events where people of different generations, who might not otherwise meet, do things together in positive and creative ways. It includes any activities which purposefully ignore, remove or break down social, environmental, cultural or institutional barriers between generations e.g. ageism, making spaces for older & younger people to meet naturally, get to know each other, share ideas, pass on &/or learn new skills, work together to identify solutions to problems, addressing challenges in their communities, all the while forging relationships and friendships.

An intergenerational lens can also be applied to the workplace which can now have up to five generational cohorts within. Organisations are considering the impact of this and are questioning whether they have the right policies, processes and ethos in place to support their diverse expectations. Applying an intergenerational lens to the workplace provides an opportunity to consider the benefits that come from diverse generational groups.

As a membership and capacity-building organisation, GWT operate locally and nationally raising awareness, sharing and expanding knowledge and understanding of intergenerational practice and its impact. We provide training and wide-ranging resources and organise learning events and facilitate local and thematic networking opportunities, to enable high quality intergenerational activity to take root on the ground & flourish. GWT lead and deliver pilot projects to support and encourage the development and delivery of intergenerational practice in new settings. We also participate in research projects and scan relevant research taking place across the world for distilling and sharing with our members and others.

A short film narrated by our retired chair Alan Hatton-Yeo MBE can be viewed here on our YouTube channel detailing our history and the background of intergenerational work and its growth in the UK.

Hear from our volunteer Trustees below:

Q.What is it like to be a volunteer Trustee?

A. “Volunteering with GWT this past few years has let me see the value of intergenerational practice in many arenas of life. It has given me greater insight into the passionate practice out there and also the resource and specialism required to support it to be done in ever more meaningful and measurable ways. I have loved the opportunity so far of being part of a Board with such great diversity of age and experience.” (Trustee)

A.“My experience volunteering as a Trustee for GWT over the past nine years has been both rewarding personally and beneficial professionally. Exposure to the Governance and Compliance aspects of Trusteeship has been useful supporting my role as a senior manager within a private sector business, while the opportunity to present to workshops and conferences has been invaluable experience of public speaking. Additionally, working alongside the other Trustees and GWT staff who have a wealth of diverse and in-depth experience has been extremely useful from a professional development perspective. From a personal perspective, being able to give my time to support a cause which is increasingly important to society overall and impacts on the lives of everyone I know is rewarding and well worth the investment in time.” (Trustee)
