About Socialudo

Socialudo is a small social enterprise dedicated to helping organisations and communities achieve positive change through using serious games. Co-founded by Professor Vikki McCall and Professor Alasdair Rutherford, Socialudo specialises in the design, delivery and evaluation of serious games to support learning, reflection and systems change across complex social issues including health, housing and inequality. Socialudo's methodology is research-led and co-produced, and has been independently evaluated by the Social Care Institute for Excellence. Find out more at Serious Play for Serious Change

Purpose of the Role

The Project Coordinator will manage and work with our partner, Socialudo, to co-deliver our Prostate Matters project which is funded by Macmillan Care Grant. The Prostate Matters project will co-produce, co-develop and deliver an innovative serious game to improve equity, cultural responsiveness and shared decision-making in prostate cancer care. Prostate cancer remains one of the most common yet least understood cancers particularly for men from underserved communities. The creation of the game aims to understand barriers such as stigma, culture, race, place and access to services which means some men delay seeking help and struggle to navigate prostate cancer diagnosis and treatment. The Project Coordinator will work with the Socialudo team to establish an Advisory Group and organise and coordinate a conference and a range of four regional co-production workshops across Scotland. These events will bring together men affected by prostate cancer (including from black and minority ethnic communities and those less likely to engage with testing) to work alongside professionals to shape realistic pathways from information-seeking, diagnosis, treatment choice to post diagnostic support.

Background to the work of The Canmore Trust

Suicide is now the highest cause of death in the UK under the age of 35 years. Recent work in Scotland suggests that around 20% of men and women in Scotland under the age of 35 years will experience significant suicidal thinking.

Background and Need Case

Scotland has formally recognised a biodiversity crisis and is widely acknowledged as one of the most nature-depleted countries on Earth. Urgent, evidence-based action is required if we are to reverse ecological decline and achieve meaningful nature recovery. Badgers, as native ecosystem engineers, play an important role in soil health, habitat dynamics and wider ecological resilience. Yet they remain one of Scotland’s most misunderstood species, with long-standing myths continuing to influence public attitudes and policy debates. In the current digital environment, misinformation spreads rapidly through social media, often outpacing scientific evidence and responsible conservation messaging.

Scottish Badgers is Scotland’s only charity dedicated to the conservation, protection and welfare of badgers in Scotland. Established in 1999, we have spent more than two decades promoting evidence-led policy development and we’re proud to have influenced progressive changes in animal welfare legislation in recent years. However, as a small, volunteer-led national charity, Scottish Badgers does not currently have the dedicated communications capacity needed to respond proactively, challenge inaccuracies constructively, and ensure that accessible, science-based information reaches communities, supporters and decision-makers. Investment in a Communications Partner is therefore essential.

This role will enable the charity to translate complex ecological knowledge into clear public messaging, strengthen digital engagement, support informed civic discourse, and contribute meaningfully to Scotland’s wider nature recovery ambitions.

Role Responsibilities

Our Communications Partner will deliver the following priorities:

• Design and deliver a coordinated 6 month digital campaign. This will focus on stabilising and rebuilding our ongoing digital presence.
• Consolidate our digital presence (currently across multiple national and local accounts)

Where time allows within the contract, our Communications Parter will also:

• Manage and develop our social media presence, building connectivity with other similar organisations
• Support regular member newsletters (with content provided by Trustees and volunteers)
• Assist trustees in translating advocacy priorities into accessible communications
• Provide monthly analytics reports, leading to a longer term communications strategy

Experience

Experience in charity communications and digital campaigning is essential. Experience in wildlife or environmental communications is desirable.
