Role

Make a real difference to people living with dementia and their families.

STAND is a Fife charity led by people with lived experience of dementia. We believe that life doesn’t stop with a diagnosis — people can continue to grow, connect and enjoy new experiences. Our Dementia Friendly Meeting Centre Spaces (DFMCS) offer friendship, peer support, meaningful activity and a warm welcome to anyone living with dementia and those who support them.

We’re looking for a compassionate, creative Facilitator to help run three of our weekly groups. Each group meets for two hours and offers a mix of social connection, conversation, shared learning and fun. You’ll help create a relaxed, supportive environment where people feel valued and included.

What you’ll do

• Welcome and support people living with dementia and their families
• Plan and deliver enjoyable, therapeutic activities
• Build relationships and encourage peer support
• Work alongside volunteers and other facilitators
• Help shape the development of our Meeting Centre Spaces

What we’re looking for

You don’t need to be a dementia specialist — we value empathy, good communication, reliability and a genuine interest in people. Experience in community work, care, group facilitation or volunteering is helpful but not essential.

What we offer

• A supportive, lived‑experience‑led organisation
• Training and ongoing supervision
• Flexible planning time from home
• The chance to make a meaningful difference every week
