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.
