The Lay Advisory Group

Our Lay Advisory Group brings together people from outside the clinical professions who provide independent perspectives across the College's work.

Who are we looking for?

individuals with the following areas of expertise:

• Digital Skills/Artificial Intelligence
• Fundraising
• Examinations and quality assurance
• Assessment of fellowship and scholarship applications

Lay Advisors are appointed specifically to provide an independent perspective, and applicants should therefore not have a professional medical or clinical background. Previous experience as a lay advisor, trustee, non-executive director or committee member would, however, be an advantage.

Commitment

These are voluntary appointments, normally for an initial three-year term, with the option to remain for a second term, by mutual agreement. All reasonable expenses incurred in carrying out the role will be reimbursed in accordance with the College's travel policy.

All lay advisors will become members of the Lay Advisory Group, which meets approximately three to four times each year. Some lay advisors will be expected to attend additional meetings of a relevant College Board or Committee.

All meetings are hybrid, with the option of attending in person at our Glasgow offices or remotely via MS TEAMS.
