We are looking for Trustees to join our Board

Our Association oversees and promotes a diverse range of activities within the Southside Community Centre. Situated in central Edinburgh, the Centre serves the diverse local community. Its activities also attract individuals from across the city and South-East Scotland. Supported by major grant-funding from a broad range of organisations, including sizable financial support from the National Lottery, the Association is currently extending the use of the Centre’s facilities to more community activities. A major opportunity has emerged to develop the Centre as part of the recently issued Community Centre Strategy issued by the City of Edinburgh Council. We now wish to take advantage of this Council initiative to support a greater range of ways with which to enhance the well-being of the community.

The Association is led by a Board of Trustees. We are seeking to recruit a small number of motivated individuals to help govern our growing charity. We are particularly interested in receiving applications from those with specialist knowledge, skills and experience in:

• Community learning, development and stakeholder engagement
• Business or legal background
• Governance and leadership
• Strategic planning
• Finance

This is an exciting time to join our charity as we have celebrated various successes over the past two years including: recruiting our first Chief Executive, extending our community centre opening hours to include weekends, expanding the range of services we deliver, and significantly increasing the amount of external grant funding we receive. We look forward to continuing to achieve further success as we continue to develop our services, including re-launching our new in-house community café and developing a long-term strategic plan.

We are keen that our Board reflects our diverse local community and we therefore welcome individuals from all minority and disadvantaged groups.

This is therefore a challenging and rewarding time to join our charity as we look towards the future. Over coming months, we need to: agree a new lease arrangements with our landlord, City of Edinburgh Council, explore and decide upon the long-term future of how our building is managed, while continuing to sustain and grow the range of services we currently provide.

About the Role

We have an exciting new project starting this October – Powering Community Sport. The project aims to support community sports clubs across Forth Valley to develop community-owned renewable energy projects that reduce energy costs and generate long-term community benefit. Community sports clubs manage important local assets, including clubhouses, pavilions, changing facilities and floodlighting. Many face rising energy costs, ageing infrastructure and limited capacity to explore renewable energy opportunities, despite often having suitable sites for solar and battery storage. The project responds to clear demand from clubs and partners across the region.

As our Project Officer, you will lead engagement with sports clubs across Forth Valley and the Loch Lomond & Trossachs National Park area, helping them participate in a dedicated sports club energy and sustainability programme linked to FEL's wider community energy work.

You will identify and recruit sports clubs into the programme, build strong relationships with club representatives, and provide ongoing support to help clubs remain engaged and achieve positive outcomes. You will act as the main day-to-day contact for participating clubs, helping them navigate opportunities to reduce energy costs, improve energy efficiency, access funding, strengthen community benefits, and contribute to local climate action.

Working closely with FEL colleagues and a Community Renewables Officer supported by Community Energy Scotland, you will coordinate activities that help clubs understand the benefits of sustainable energy practices and access wider opportunities available through community energy initiatives.

The role will involve organising and delivering workshops, events and engagement activities, supporting Club Energy Champions, gathering evidence of impact, and maintaining effective partnerships with clubs, communities and stakeholders.

While the role will provide light-touch energy awareness advice and signposting, specialist household energy enquiries will be referred to FEL's Home Energy Advice Team where appropriate.

Home-Start Dunfermline supports families with young children through challenging times, providing practical and emotional support to help parents build confidence and give their children the best possible start in life.

Our volunteers are at the heart of what we do, and we are looking for a friendly, enthusiastic and proactive Volunteer & Community Engagement Officer to help us grow and strengthen our volunteer community and build connections across the local area.

This is a varied, people-focused role. You will help recruit and welcome new volunteers, coordinate and support volunteer training, and help ensure our volunteers feel valued, supported and connected to Home-Start.

You will also get out into the community, building relationships with local groups, organisations and businesses, attending events and networking opportunities, and raising awareness of Home-Start Dunfermline, our services and volunteering opportunities.

We are looking for someone who is confident meeting new people, enjoys building positive relationships and can encourage others to get involved. You will be organised, proactive and able to work both independently and as part of a team.

You should have experience of recruiting, supporting or coordinating volunteers, building relationships with people from a range of backgrounds, and organising or delivering training, presentations, workshops or group activities. Strong communication and digital skills are also important.

A full driving licence and access to a vehicle for work purposes are essential.
