About Us

Finding Your Feet is Scotland’s only national amputee charity. We support families affected by amputation or limb absence with activities, services and support to benefit fitness, mental health and personal growth. Our goal is to be on hand with some form of support for every amputee in Scotland. The first step towards doing this is to connect people and make them smile, which we’re pretty good at! We believe that forming relationships with peers or being part of a group is one of the most powerful ways to reduce isolation, which has been proven to be a contributing factor to life expectancy in the amputee community. Whether an amputee needs vital counselling or wants to sail the seven seas, FYF is the place to be.

You would expect us to say this, but we actually do mean it - Finding Your Feet is committed to creating a diverse environment and is proud to be an equal opportunity employer.

As a key member of the fundraising team you will have the opportunity to make this post your own as your skills and experience develop; being involved across all areas of fundraising but predominantly helping us to grow corporate & events income generation and ensuring effective donor stewardship.

Working closely with the Fundraising Manager, Fundraising Assistant and alongside our Marketing and Wellbeing teams, you will see the direct impact of your efforts within our friendly and fast -paced environment, making a real difference in the lives of amputees and their families.
