Current opportunities
SBSS is a confidential bereavement service for people who need structure care and support following the death of someone.
We are looking to recruit new committee members. We meet the first Wednesday of every month at 5.30pm. We're a really friendly bunch an most meetings are lightsome and quick. Why not come along for a meeting to see what you think before committing yourself1?! There is also an option to join the meetings virtually. SBSS is a charity, and is led by the committee - so you get to make a real difference to shape the delivery and direction of the service in Shetland. It's a great way of giving something back to Shetland and the community - without a committee, we can't run and there would be no SBSS.
We are looking for someone to help with fundraising for our charity. Coming up with money making ideas, organising events, helping out at events.
Could be anything from 'Soup and Sweet' at local hall to 'quiz sheet' sales at local shops.
Any help, support, ideas welcome.
