Volunteer Board member and Treasurer
We are seeking an individual to join our board as a trustee and treasurer, as we take Scotland’s longest established relationship counselling charity forward in the novel environment created by Covid-19.
You will be joining us at a significant time in the charity’s evolution. We responded to the Covid-19 lockdown by migrating counselling to video and phone platforms for clients who would previously have met their counsellors face to face. Since then, our expertise in distress-and trauma-informed support counselling has enabled Bright Light’s counsellors to help people not only with their relationships but also to manage the personal and anxiety-provoking challenges of the Covid-19 lockdown and ongoing restrictions and uncertainties. Our vision is to promote a better quality of life and wellbeing for our clients and their families through supporting them to develop strong positive relationships.
This is a voluntary role and out of pocket expenses will be met. Bright Light is committed to equality and diversity, and we would encourage applications from people from all walks of life.
To apply
To apply, download the application pack and complete the Equalities Monitoring form then send your CV, a covering letter and your form to our CEO, Julie Hogg Weld at julie@bright-light.org.uk
The closing date for completed applications is 5pm Monday 31 May.
