Searchlight Scotland

Searchlight Scotland was founded in 2018 with a drive and hope to see societies most vulnerable receive trauma informed care and support in order for them to live the life that they deserve.

Over the past few years we have seen many individuals come through our doors and start a journey to freedom from addiction, abuse, exploitation and many other life controlling issues. We are passionate about providing specialised care to those who have suffered trauma in their lives.

We have a vision and a drive to identify and rescue those who are trapped in the travesty of human trafficking. We want to raise awareness and provide training to front line professionals to see as many individuals identified in Scotland as we can. We have a passion to see slavery ended in Scotland in our life time.

We are committed to expanding and developing our services to see the long lasting recovery and restoration of many more individuals who have found themselves in very dark situations.

Current opportunity

Morning Community Café Volunteers

Searchlight Scotland organises a Coffee Morning every Friday from 10am-12pm at the Junction Café (5 Bon-Accord Terrace, Aberdeen AB11 6DP), in collaboration with The Junction Church. Our community café is open to everyone, especially vulnerable people and parents with children. People can relax, have a coffee and a chat with our case workers. Our main aim is to provide to the community a free space where everyone can feel comfortable and have a first contact with us if they need our support. We have great opportunities for people to help volunteering at the Coffee Mornings and provide a smile to our customers. Main duties are: • Welcome and chat with customers. • Help serve drinks and cakes. • Create a relaxing environment. • Assist with activities. • Help tidy up the Cafe' after closing. A fantastic opportunity to assist in a Community Café that provides an important and welcoming place where people can come together. All help makes a real difference and is greatly appreciated.
