Works+

Charity Trustees

  • Works+
  • Management Board
  • Unpaid
  • Galashiels
  • Closing 7th April 2023

Works+ was established in 2018 as a small, registered Scottish charity providing youth employability services across the Scottish Borders. Our office is located at the Focus Centre in Galashiels. Each year we help young people build their confidence to secure employment, training and education. Like all charities, Works+ relies on the generosity of our funders and donors to support the work. It could not survive without the dedication of its many partner organisations, staff, trustees and volunteers.

Trustees govern the charity. We aim to have a Board which covers the key areas in which we work, and we are now seeking to appoint additional Trustees who, ideally, have experience in any of the following areas:

  • Human Resources
  • Charity Law
  • Charity Sector Experience

That said, we also welcome applications from individuals with other relevant experience. Our Trustees have ultimate responsibility for the operation and development of the charity, including employability, compliance with legislation, fundraising, public relations and financial control.

This is an exciting time to join Works+ as a Trustee as we explore opportunities to help us respond to the ever-increasing demand for high-quality, person-centred employability support. We also have our 5th birthday celebration and an upcoming launch of our new website.

The principal responsibilities of a Works+ Trustee include attending and actively participating in 6-weekly Board meetings (held on a Thursday evening, both virtually and face-to-face). Trustees bring their professional experience to help govern the charity and actively support the Project Manager. The time commitment required is a minimum of one day per month, including the Trustee meetings (of 1.5-2 hours per meeting). All Trustees are expected to share a passion and commitment to supporting young people in the Scottish Borders. Please note that this is voluntary, although reasonable expenses will be reimbursed.

If you think this opportunity sounds like you and want to help a local employability charity, join us as a Trustee.

Scottish Borders Rape Crisis Centre

Diverse Communities Support Worker

  • Scottish Borders Rape Crisis Centre
  • Part time
  • £28,753 pro-rata
  • Galashiels
  • Closing 30th March 2023

Scottish Borders Rape Crisis Centre (SBRCC) provides a safe, non-threatening environment where survivors can talk freely and in confidence. We support all self-identifying females aged 18+ and all young people of any gender/gender identity aged between 12 and 18, who have experienced rape or any form of sexual violence, either recently or in the past. We work in partnership with others towards the elimination of violence against women.

We are an all-women organisation, believing that this allows us to offer the most appropriate and secure support to women and young people affected by rape and other forms of sexual violence. While we acknowledge that men experience rape and sexual violence, we also know that most incidents are committed against women by men, and it is to women that our efforts are primarily directed. Rape and sexual violence are crimes of violence against women and girls which reflect inequality in our society: redressing this inequality defines our work with women and girls who have experienced rape and other forms sexual violence.

We aim:

  • To enable survivors to take their own steps towards reclaiming control of their lives.
  • To support them through information, listening, and acceptance as they make choices for themselves; and
  • To embody the principles of equality and empowerment in all we do.

SBRCC recognises that currently survivors accessing our services are not representative of the diverse society in which we live, for the reason we are committed to increasing our engagement and participation within diverse intersectional communities. This post will specifically focus and bring expertise and knowledge to further our intersectional approach. The role aims to increase our reach and engage survivors specifically within rural and remote communities, LGBT+, BME, children & young people, disability, older women and survivors with learning difficulties.
