Larkhall & District Volunteer Group is a trusted local organisation with a strong track record which works to promote the wellbeing of the 55+ community in Lanarkshire by reducing physical and social isolation whilst increasing health and wellbeing.

We have a clear vision and an ambitious strategic plan covering the next three years. We would like to give you the opportunity to use your talents and expertise to help us implement the plan.

We are looking for enthusiastic, community-minded and experienced individuals of any age and background to join our Board of Trustees (including a Vice Chair and Secretary) and help guide our organisation as it moves forward into what we see as a new and exciting phase. We are looking to recruit new Trustees with experience of fundraising, marketing, HR, finance, digital skills and communications who will strengthen and complement our existing Board members.

As a Trustee you will provide strategic direction and guidance to the Charity and will work collaboratively with other Board Members and the staff team to help us achieve our vision.

The Board meets once a month at our offices in Larkhall. As a small charity it is expected that Board members will take on additional responsibilities between meetings consistent with the objectives of the Charity. This is an unpaid position,however reasonable expenses will be reimbursed.

Whilst all applications are appreciated, the Charity particularly welcomes applications from groups currently under-represented on its Board including people aged under 50, ethnic minorities.

We are seeking new Board Members by June 2020 in time for our AGM in summer of 2020.
