Would you like to join our board?

We are looking for new trustees to help LifeCare in its great work supporting local older people.

LifeCare is at an exciting stage in its development and we are looking for Trustees who will passionately inform our services bringing new skills and experience to help lead the organisation.

We are particularly (but not exclusively) interested in individuals with experience in the following fields:

• Health and Social Care
• Finance
• Fundraising
• Marketing and Digital Innovation
• Hospitality

Most of all, we are looking for people with lived experience of care, or as an unpaid carer, to help strengthen our capacity to better embed the voice of the people who use our services at Board level.

Can you help us? We are looking for people who share our values, that are passionate and committed about supporting local older people, who can be creative in building our profile and work closely with our team and stakeholders to deliver outstanding person-centred services to our clients.

The Board usually meets in the evenings (either in-person or via Zoom). The role is non-remunerated however reasonable expenses will be reimbursed and training / ongoing support will be provided. If you have any questions or would like a quick chat to find out more, please contact our chair beverleyfrancis@lifecare-edinburgh.org.uk.

Do you want to make a difference?

Lifecare is a forward-thinking charity that supports older people across Edinburgh. Our outreach service supports people to live in their own homes and be independent for as long as possible. You will make a big difference to people’s lives by assisting with household tasks, providing personal care but most importantly ensuring people feel special and cared for. If you are caring, compassionate and want to work for a charity that offers good terms and conditions, quality training and want to make a difference, come and speak to us.
