Alzheimer Scotland is Scotland’s national dementia charity. Our aim is to make sure nobody faces dementia alone. We provide support and information to people with dementia, their carers and families, we campaign for the rights of people with dementia and fund vital dementia research.

You will coordinate and deliver an exciting national engagement project, travelling with our giant inflatable brain exhibit to raise awareness of brain health in schools, communities, and public spaces. This includes planning logistics, managing event set-up and take-down, delivering interactive educational sessions to a wide range of audiences, and supporting associated volunteer and fundraising activities.
