Serving Community Volunteers (Kinloss)

SSAFA
Postcode: IV36 3UH
SSAFA, the armed forces charity that supports armed forces personnel, their families and veterans is currently setting up an exciting Serving Community Team in Kinloss and would welcome volunteers from the area. You do not need a military background to volunteer; people from outside the serving community but who live in the local area are very welcomed to get in touch. Volunteers with the Kinloss Serving Community Team help look after all those working and living on and near Kinloss Barracks and they do this in a number of ways. As a Serving Community volunteer, you will be helping the serving community access financial, practical, and emotional support when they need it. Depending on the role you choose, you might be fundraising, managing finances, or helping us with marketing. SSAFA is seeking to refresh their offering to the serving community, to ensure they give tailored support to each site, that is in tune with the needs of today's serving personnel. Currently, there are administration roles, (supporting meeting and events) roles to help distribute funding grants to those in need, welcoming, supporting and coordinating other volunteers, and volunteers needed to help plan and organise networking and community events. Everyone who offers their time to volunteer with SSAFA makes a huge difference. The roles are varied, flexible and very rewarding, giving back to those who are serving. It makes a real difference to the people living in the Kinloss area and all help is greatly appreciated. For more details please visit https://www.ssafa.org.uk/volunteer/serving-community-teams and send us a message.

You'll also join us in chinwags, social events, and practice hikes if you will!

Charity Trustees

Aberdeen in Recovery (AiR)
Postcode: AB25 1BT
Aberdeen in Recovery (AiR) was granted Scottish Charitable Incorporated Organisation (SCIO) charitable status in March this year. We are now looking to find talented, passionate and skilled people to fill some vacant seats on our Board of Trustees to help us grow and develop our innovative and solution focused new charity. This is a unique opportunity to help lay the foundations to ensure AiR has a long-term future as a charity with solid processes in place to ensure it meets its mission of: “To be a bridge from ‘dependence’ to ‘independence’ for the individual seeking to recover from problematic substance use and addictive behaviours”. This is such an exciting and invigorating prospect for individuals to get involved and be participant in the tsunami of change which is now gaining momentum and being driven by “Experts by Experience” and the vibrant Lived Experienced Communities which are blossoming, not only locally but are now established as a national phenomena. Since its conception, AiR and its members have worked tirelessly to establish and build collaborative relationships with professional services and third sector support agencies. We have consistently driven the message that individuals who have personal lived/living experience of active substance use, including Family members who have been affected by the addictive behaviours of a loved one, and the Recovery Communities they represent have something valid, essential and extremely beneficial to bring to described Recovery Orientated Systems of Care (ROSC). We can provide existing services and clinical structural systems with resources, skills and capabilities that they, no matter how much effort, time and money they invest, will never be able to offer or provide. So, it gives the greatest of pleasure to see this is now recognised on the highest levels that “Recoverists” can productively contribute to the design, development and delivery of truly person-centred ROSC. This being evidenced by the vision, philosophy and content of the Scottish Governments “Rights, Respect and Recovery” Drug and Alcohol Strategy. We also believe it is reaffirmed by the recent success in being granted funding from the Government’s National Development Fund, with our principle partner Alcohol and Drugs Action (ADA), for our ‘Recovery Peer Pathway’ joint two-year project. This collaborative venture will build on three years of pilot work to further establish and build proactive and productive Developmental Pathways within ADA and their Volunteer network while in synergy with AiR membership for individuals who desire to initiate change in their behaviours and outlook as they progress on their recovery journeys within, and imperatively out-with, statutory and formal support services. We believe that the blue sky thinking behind this project categorically and emphatically fits with the expectations, outcomes and concepts of the above Government policy. So, if you have lived experience, or a stakeholder interest, and a passion for recovery and are willing to give of yourself that another may learn, you will not find a better opportunity to indulge your appetite than from within Aberdeen in Recovery. For more information please contact Dermot Craig, Recovery Community Development Manager at E Mail: dermot@aberdeeninrecovery.org or tel.: 01224 638342 / Mobile: 07751 213108.

Postcode: AB11 5YU
Help us take on Scotland’s single biggest killer! Help us build up the pace in Scotland by sharing our badges and displaying posters across your local area; playing your part in the future of Scottish medical research and taking on heart disease. Our Heart of Scotland Appeal is a fundraising campaign to raise and spend money in Scotland on vital medical research into the prevention, treatment and cure of heart disease. 41 people die every day in Scotland from cardiovascular disease and we know that the death rate from coronary heart disease is almost 50% higher than for the South East of England. This isn’t fair and we want to change this. We will provide posters for you to display in your local shops, community centres, libraries, supermarkets, pharmacies and doctors surgeries to help us reach as many people as possible. The Heart of Scotland Appeal is backed by internationally acclaimed Scottish fashion designer, Christopher Kane. Christopher has designed four unique badges featuring the words Love, Care, Brave and Life. We can send you a box of badges to sell to friends, family and colleagues for donations, as well as asking local shops if they will have a box of badges on their counter (that we can then send out to them directly). Join our network of volunteer Pace Makers and help us get everyone wearing a Heart of Scotland badge. Together we can keep those we love around for longer.

Volunteer Fundraiser

The State Hospital Board for Scotland
Postcode: ML11 8RP
The State Hospital is keen to identify opportunities to enhance service delivery, taking advantage of opportunities available via external funding where appropriate. Given the current financial constraints, the Hospital is experiencing significant financial challenges in relation to enhancing patient experience, where costs would be incurred out with the core service delivery budget. Opportunities have been identified across a range of services within the Hospital, particularly in relation to the range of patient activities available, and work streams supporting the Supporting Healthy Choices initiative. The role will require the volunteer to engage with patients, carers, staff and other volunteers, supported by the Person Centred Improvement team. Additionally, the volunteer will be asked to contribute to reports and, on occasion, attend a number of internal meetings, including the Person Centred Improvement Steering Group, and Patient Partnership Group. The Hospital works collaboratively with Forensic Network partners and other supporting organisations e.g. Health Improvement Scotland: Community Engagement, Volunteer Scotland, the volunteer may also be asked to contribute to presentations and attend external events which promote and share best practice.

Why we need you The charity has around 100 branches, all run by volunteers, who provide local support to people affected by autism. Every branch is different and so are the activities they provide – they may run parent support groups, adult social groups, children’s activities, conferences or focus on providing information or campaigning. However, no matter how big or small, all branches are hugely valued by the people in their local area. The Fundraising officer role is important to the running of the branch as they help organise fundraising events for the South Lanarkshire branch. What you will be doing Putting collection tins in local shops or community areas. Holding a ‘tin shake’ in a local town – this is where Branch members stand outside shops with collection tins and get donations Holding a sponsored event such as a swim or walk. People will sponsor Branch Members' money to complete certain tasks. Holding an event for local people to attend – quiz night, auction, raffle, talk, coffee and cake morning – people will give donations when they come. Having a section on the Branch website that people can click on if they want to give money. Talking to committee members about different ways to fundraise and deciding what to do as a Branch. Talking to NAS Regional Fundraising Team and ensuring the Branch complies with the NAS rules on fundraising.

When and where Flexibility on days and the amount of time committed to the role. The majority of branch volunteers give around 2 hours a week but it depends how active the branch is. Home based (plus travel to branch activities) Ideally you will live in the South Lanarkshire area. Support Branch Chairperson and committee members to support the Fundraising volunteer where needed. Designated NAS Branch Support Officer to answer any queries and support you with the day to day running of the branch.

We seek applications from anyone interested in the role, but particularly welcome applications from those on the autism spectrum Whilst we are able to make reasonable adjustments for volunteers you will need to be able to volunteer independently as we are not able to offer one to one support. We process applications as we receive them, we will close the role when we recruit a suitable volunteer, consequently the role may close before the advertised closing date.

We need collection can volunteers to promote the wonderful work of Cornerstone locally, and raise vital funds to ensure we can go above and beyond in the care that we provide someone allowing them to be included, and respected in choices about the care they receive, and helping them to stay connected to the people, hobbies and interests that they love most. Our collection can volunteers are responsible for placing and collecting fundraising cans from a range of sites including cafes, pubs and shops. We also would love your help in identifying new locations where we can place our cans. If you are wanting a role which is more flexible and ad hoc this is perfect for you! What would I be doing? • Delivering and collecting cans from a wide range of businesses and community groups locally including checking that they are sealed and labelled correctly • Identifying suitable locations for collection cans to be placed and placing them in your local community. • Emptying cans, counting and banking the money • Keeping an accurate record of the number of cans in circulation, and the funds raised and reporting this back to Cornerstone on a regular basis.

Pushing up the Daisies
Postcode: IV30 1BU
Pushing up the Daisies is a pioneering charity in Scotland, providing information and support to the newly bereaved during the period between a death and a funeral, the advancement of education in care of bodies at home after death and the advancement of health related to grief. We are especially here to support anyone who instinctively wants to keep the body of their loved one at home (or bring them back home) after their death. In November 2021 we started to take steps towards setting up a service to empower and practically assist people who want to keep someone close in the days after their last breath and be involved in the arrangements. This is aimed to be instead of or alongside funeral directors. We want to develop this aspect of the charity as a service and also as a source of income. We are now in a position to expand the Board of Trustees to strengthen and expand the charity and particularly to develop the service aspect of the charity in a business-like way. The current charity trustees are passionate about the work of the charity. We want to balance this with supportive business expertise. We are also looking to balance people with the inspiration and time to be hands-on in our development and people experienced to take an overview in the development and governance. If you are interested, please contact kate@pushingupthedaisies.org.uk to arrange a meeting in-person/online to discuss and answer any questions you have.
