No matter how good our services are, we can’t properly support our users/community well if we don’t have good organisers in the team. If this sounds like you?... we would love you to consider volunteering with us for a few hours per week/month. The primary purpose of Old Kilpatrick Food Parcels is the prevention and provision of relief from food poverty in the local area of Old Kilpatrick and its environs. Our friendly office is an ideal place for you to put your Administration skills to great use- ideally you would have good Computer and filing skills, be good with the members of the public, have a good telephone manner and keep records up to date. So, whether you are looking to use your time well or update your skills, we would love to hear from you. In return we can offer you a warm welcome and all the support you could need. We are seeing a rise in demand for our services everyday. Having your help will allow us to be there for the people who need us. Any time you can give will make a real difference.

Secretary/Administrator

Our charity (www.lothian.remap.org.uk) designs and makes bespoke equipment to improve the confidence, dignity and quality of life for the disabled. Our records historically have been paper based, and whilst we now use digital systems, the need for secure central storage has become essential. The management of the records and documents need to be uploaded to new web based systems to allow our volunteers to access information and store files centrally rather than from peer to peer.
