Could you help build the partnerships, projects and momentum needed to reconnect people and nature across the National Park through a new, landscape-scale nature restoration initiative?
This is an exciting time to explore new opportunities, take on rewarding challenges, and work with a team united by a passion for people and nature.
Loch Lomond & The Trossachs Countryside Trust (LLTCT) was established in 2012 as a charitable company focussing on improving the natural environment, connecting communities and delivering health and well-being activities within the National Park. LLTCT is a small team of experienced staff supported by committed volunteers delivering a wide range of benefits to nature and people. We have brought extensive experience, knowledge and connections in nature restoration through working with over 30 land managers, community groups, charities, local businesses and statutory bodies on Wild Strathfillan (a 50,000-hectare landscape-scale project).
We now need to build capacity within the team to further develop our people and community-focussed work.
Working in partnership with Loch Lomond & The Trossachs National Park Authority and RSPB Scotland, LLTCT has committed to the exciting new Loch Lomond & The Trossachs Landscape Connections (LLTLC) Initiative, funded by The National Heritage Lottery Fund. This focuses on accelerating restoration of our woodland mosaic, addressing shared threats, and maximising shared opportunities for people and communities across three existing landscape partnerships (Wild Strathfillan, The Great Trossachs Forest, Lomond Rainforest).

Good Food Scotland is looking for new Trustees to join the Board as the organisation moves into its next stage.
Across Glasgow we run nine community food shops, employ 19 staff and spend more than £350,000 each year on food for our members. The scale of the work is significant and it reflects the scale of the challenge facing many households across the city.
Most of our shops are based in communities experiencing some of the highest levels of deprivation in Scotland, including areas ranked among the most deprived on the Scottish Index of Multiple Deprivation. In many of these neighbourhoods access to affordable, healthy food is limited, while wider pressures around housing costs, debt, energy bills and low income continue to shape everyday life for many families.
Food poverty rarely exists on its own. More often it reflects wider poverty and inequality. Our approach starts with food, but it does not stop there.
Food is often the reason someone first walks through the door. After that, the aim is to make sure people can access the wider support that helps them feel more secure, more connected and better able to cope with the pressures they are facing.
Our shops provide access to affordable, nutritious food and they also act as community spaces where people can meet others, find advice and connect with local support. We work alongside partners such as Govan Law Centre, One Parent Families Scotland and energy advice services, while the shops themselves are delivered in partnership with housing associations including Wheatley Group, Linthouse Housing Association, Sanctuary Scotland and Southside Housing Association. Through these partnerships members can access help with issues that often sit behind food poverty in the first place.
Until now the work has been delivered as part of the Feeding Britain network. We are now establishing Good Food Scotland as an independent Scottish Charitable Incorporated Organisation, while continuing to work closely with Feeding Britain as a partner. This is an important step for the organisation, and it brings an opportunity to strengthen governance and shape how the charity develops over the coming years.
Our ambition is to build a model that is financially sustainable and capable of growing into other communities across Scotland.
About the role
Trustees play an important part in guiding the organisation and making sure it remains well run and focused on the communities it exists to serve. The Board works closely with the leadership team, offering support, challenge and oversight, helping shape the longer term direction of the charity while making sure strong governance and financial responsibility remain in place.
What we are looking for
As the organisation continues to grow we are particularly keen to hear from people who bring experience in one or more of the following areas.
Commercial retail experience, particularly where you understand how multi site operations work in practice and where improvements to systems, stock management or logistics could strengthen how the shops run.
Finance or accounting experience, ideally someone who may be willing to take on the role of Treasurer and help the Board maintain strong financial oversight.
Legal experience, helping ensure the charity meets its responsibilities and operates within the appropriate governance framework.
Previous board experience can be helpful but it is not essential. Practical knowledge, sound judgement and a willingness to contribute are just as important. We would also welcome interest from people whose lived experience reflects the communities we work alongside.
Why join the Board
Good Food Scotland is already working at scale across Glasgow and making a real difference in communities that face some of the toughest economic pressures in the country. Joining the Board offers the opportunity to contribute to work that is practical, community rooted and focused on long term change.
For those with relevant experience it is also a chance to help shape the organisation as it establishes itself as an independent charity and looks at how the model can grow into other communities.
Time commitment
Trustees attend quarterly board meetings, with occasional input between meetings when needed. Meetings may take place more regularly over the next 12months, with Trustees able to attend in person in Glasgow or online.
If you are interested in using your experience to support communities across Glasgow and help shape the future direction of Good Food Scotland, we would be pleased to hear from you.
This new role would suit someone who is naturally very well-organised, able to build strong relationships and garner support, enjoys working with lots of partners, has experience of Scottish politics, and is committed to climate action and justice. Amidst the self-evident climate emergency it is vital that we re-establish the priority of climate action amongst the public, with politicians and decision makers, and win wide support for urgent change and leadership.
You’ll lead on our engagement with stakeholders, MSPs, government officials and party staff and work to build support through sympathetic groups such as unions and the faith community, in order to help to mobilise our supporters and grow the strong public support for action. You’ll be part of the small SCCS secretariat team that provides support to our diverse members and works with them to plan and deliver advocacy and campaigns activities, so you’ll need to be a great communicator, enthusiastic, proactive and willing to be flexible.
With Scottish elections taking place in 2026, this is an important time to be influencing climate policy. This role will play an essential part in helping the Scottish climate movement navigate the new political context, boost our impact and win deeper support for urgency and action.
Stop Climate Chaos Scotland (SCCS) is Scotland’s climate coalition, bringing together over 70 civil society organisations campaigning together on climate change. Our membership is diverse and includes national and community organisations working on:
Together, we represent hundreds of thousands of people across Scotland and stand in solidarity with communities most affected by climate impacts around the world. We collaborate with our members to build strong public support for faster climate action. We use this support to influence decision-makers to put in place fair, effective policies to reduce emissions and benefits for everyone.
