Vintage Vibes

Transformational Trustee for Vintage Vibes

  • Vintage Vibes
  • Management Board
  • Unpaid
  • Hybrid: Edinburgh (mostly online, occasional in-person catch-ups over a cuppa and cake)
  • Closing 30th June 2025

Are you someone who loves helping brilliant ideas grow?

Do you have a passion for tackling loneliness and isolation in over 60s?

Or maybe you have expertise in areas like HR, law, fundraising, enterprise or innovation?

Fancy supporting a small charity with a big heart, boatloads of experience and almost ten years of experience transforming lives in Edinburgh?

JOIN OUR BOARD OF TRUSTEES!

Vintage Vibes is a multi-award-winning charity (SCIO SC054011) tackling loneliness and isolation in over 60s across Edinburgh. Since 2015, we’ve created hundreds of lasting friendships between older people (our VIPs) and volunteers of all ages, transforming lives and communities in every postcode.

This year, we’ve stepped into an exciting new phase: becoming an independent charity after almost a decade of impact within a charitable partnership been LifeCare and Space @ Broomhouse Hub.

We're proud of our roots and full of ambition for our future. We're looking for new volunteer trustees to help us build strong foundations and dream big. Could you join our team?

What does a trustee do?

As a trustee, you'll help us make good decisions, keep our work aligned with our values, and support the organisation to grow with care. At Vintage Vibes, that means:

  • Strategy – Thinking big and thinking forward - You will support the team in consulting on, developing and delivering our 2026-2031 Strategy to carry out our mission.
  • Governance – Offering your skills and experience to collaborate as a board to ensure the charity is compliant with our governance and charity law requirements.
  • Risk – You will be the critical friend that helps the charity to assess, understand and embrace health risk within the operations and planning of the organisation.
  • Approach - Bringing a positive, down-to-earth, fair approach to conversations and building relationships based on trust, transparency and collaboration.

Our Board of Trustees has two Sub Groups:

  • Governance and Good Practice Group
  • Finance, Fundraising and Future Group

We're looking for amazing people to join us who are excited by opportunity, who’ve helped projects or organisations thrive sustainably, and who believe that connection, kindness and creativity are just as important as structure, systems and spreadsheets.

In the next 18 months, we’ll be focusing on:

  1. Building strong foundations — From reviewing policies to increasing our visibility and embedding good governance as a new independent charity
  2. Developing a bold new strategy — We’ll be consulting with our community and designing our 2026–2031 Strategy and Plan
  3. Growing our income — We're ambitious about finding the right partners and opportunities to help us thrive long term

If you have experience in areas like income generation, fundraising, HR, enterprise, legal structures, or managing organisational change — we’d also love to hear from you.

What’s it like to be on our board?

Our meetings are structured and focused, but we keep things human.

We value honesty, warmth, and good humour. You'll find a collaborative space where you can share ideas, learn, and contribute without pressure to be perfect.

Whether you’re a seasoned trustee or have never been on a board before, we’ll support you with a full induction, training, and a 6-month buddy system with an existing trustee to help you settle in and grow your confidence.

We welcome trustees of all backgrounds and identities, and especially encourage people who haven’t seen themselves in this type of role before. If you're values-led, excited by growth, and keen to contribute, we’ll support you every step of the way.

Time commitment:

4-6 meetings a year plus 2 days of volunteering per year across 1 x Away Day, 1 x 0.5 Day Event and 1 x 0.5 Day Getting to Know the Community Activity per year. Outside of this you will be required to respond to semi regular emails, and join a bimonthly online call for one Sub Group. We work hard to ensure that our trustees time is used efficiently and respectfully.

We will also shortly be recruiting for a Chair of our Board of Trustees – you can find out more on Good Moves and our Social Media.

Here’s what one of our current trustees says:

“I have enjoyed enormously watching this creative, thoughtful and energetic organisation grow and develop. It is now ready to be independent and we welcome that. This is one of the most important ways to tackle isolation and loneliness in older people and something that brings such joy can only go from strength to strength.” Helen
