Being a Community Facilitator is all about delivering a variety of lifesaving first aid skills in community engagement workshops and projects, within local communities, and primary and secondary schools.

The role is all about promoting first aid awareness and helping to achieve our mission to create a nation of lifesavers. Minimum hours is 20 per year.

Volunteer Drivers will be required to collect food parcels from NCT and to families isolated/ vulnerable during the pandemic.

The Scottish Communities Climate Action Network (SCCAN) are growing our Climate for Change facilitator team! The Climate for Change programme harnesses the power of conversations among friends, colleagues, or neighbours to create a groundswell of support for real climate action in communities across Scotland. We are looking for volunteer facilitators - you don’t need any experience – just passion, commitment and drive (though it always helps to know a bit about climate change!). We will give you all the training you need to be able to go out and bring people together to talk about this important issue. Our pilot last year was a great success which trained 60 volunteer facilitators and reached over 400 people through climate conversations hosted by 50 individuals and organisations. Conversation guests said: 'Excellently presented. I feel more optimistic in having conversations with friends and family and engaging with local representatives/. Facilitators said: 'The proven structure of the facilitation sessions gives you confidence in the process - also having SCCAN staff, mentors who you can call on for support or attending facilitator meetings allows you to keep contact with others, share experiences, ask questions, get new ideas. All the while you are building confidence in your own ability to hold meaningful conversations and influence real change'. We invite you to join the training for the next facilitator cohort this June and become a part of the drive for the urgent action to avert the worst of the crises we are all facing. Applications welcomed. Apply here: https://airtable.com/shrCNTMZNLFakSzl8 The next training takes place online, over two half days: Thu 29 and Fri 30 June 9.30am-12.30pm.
