Charity registered in Scotland SC004128
Are you interested in contributing to the work of Health in Mind, a mental health and wellbeing charity based in Edinburgh, working across Scotland? Our vision is that everyone in Scotland has positive mental health and wellbeing and can access high-quality support if, when and how they need it. Through our unique pathway of support, collaborations, campaigns, and resources, we build hope, resilience and understanding of mental health and wellbeing.
Health in Mind Board meets four times a year, via video conferencing or in Edinburgh and is supported by two focused committees, meeting quarterly by video conference.
We are currently seeking applications from people who have experience of mental health difficulties, and/or health and social care, finance, HR and other relevant expertise and experience. You don’t need to have been on a Board before- we offer a full induction and ongoing learning and development opportunities.
We are committed to reflecting the communities we serve and would particularly welcome applications from people who are currently under-represented on our Board, including disabled people, those from Black, Asian and other minority ethnic communities and people aged under 50.
