Role

STAND (Striving Towards a New Day) is a Fife Charity which encourages, supports and engages people living with dementia and their family and friends through peer support and other means, to support people to live a good life with dementia, continuing to use their skills and learn new ones. 

STAND’s Board of Trustees is made up of people with lived experience of dementia, their supporters and other professionals. 

STAND delivers multiple Dementia Friendly Meeting Centre Spaces (DFMCS) across Fife. DFMCS typically each run for 2 hours a week and through peer support, social interaction and therapeutic activity offer those living with dementia and their supporters, opportunities to live well with dementia, establishing new friendships, enjoying new activities and having fun. Each DFMCS is facilitated by one or two Facilitators, sometimes supported by STAND Volunteers. 

Location: based at 3 weekly DFMCS groups: times and days will be specified (likely to be within 10 miles of Kirkcaldy). Home-based for any planning hours.
