Earth in Common
Earth in Common is looking for a dynamic and community-minded individual to lead the transformation of two disused bowling greens into thriving urban crofts in Victoria Park (Trinity) and St Margaret’s Park (Corstorphine). You’ll work with local communities to create vibrant green spaces focused on sustainable food growing, education, and wellbeing.
Trustee Vacancies
Our Trustees serve for a three year term and may serve for a maximum of two terms consecutively, after which the constitution requires them to step down. We are always keen to hear from anyone who might be interested in joining the NWL Board and we particularly wish to encourage general enquiries from Neilston residents.
Current Vacancy
The Trustee fulfilling the role of Treasurer is due to step down from the Board this year, so we need to find a successor. This is a voluntary position, as Trustees cannot receive payment for their services to the charity. However, it is a role that someone keen to support the community of Neilston should find very interesting and rewarding.
The Board is seeking someone with a professional background in accounting or finance to report on the financial position of the charity and to provide advice and support to the Trustees. You will participate in the evaluation of grant applications from the community and guide the Board on its strategic financial planning. This post may particularly suit someone who is approaching retirement, or else anyone who is mid-career but who is also able to commit some time to voluntary work.
