Role

Seescape

More than 160 years since it was founded as Fife Society for the Blind Seescape continues to provide high quality support to the visually impaired community in Fife. Our past is important but it is our future that will change lives. Our Chair took up office at November’s AGM and we have recently appointed a new CEO. This is an exciting time in the development of Seescape as we work towards implementing our 4 Strategic Ambitions and we are now looking for up to 3 Trustees to join our committed and engaged Board on this journey.

We are seeking Trustees who are strategic thinkers, collaborative, constructive, and able to act as charity ambassadors.

We encourage applicants from all backgrounds to apply. We particularly welcome applications from those with the following background and/or experience:

• Lived experience and/or knowledge of the Visual Impairment community 

• Knowledge of networks and organisations in Fife 

• Interest in and commitment to the values and strategic ambitions of Seescape and enthusiasm for leading the delivery of these. 

• Knowledge or experience of the Public Sector, in particular Health Services.

The Board currently meets 6 weekly in Glenrothes on Thursday mornings. Trustees are encouraged to attend in person but online attendance is also possible. The position is voluntary but reasonable expenses can be claimed. 

Trustees are required to be members of the PVG Scheme.
