Asylum and Refugee Care is a charity which offers support to asylum seekers and refugees in the North East of Scotland. We support survivors of human trafficking and exploitation, partnering with other organisations to offer specialist person-centred trauma support. AARC ensures that all New Scots feel welcome and have their basic needs met in order to help them integrate into their new communities. They offer trauma informed, person-centred support. Examples of this are: supporting at medical appointments, helping to convert qualifications in preparation for getting permission to work, and supporting to access ESOL. AARC is led and informed by the experiences and voices of those we support, in order to ensure value for all.

This is an exciting opportunity to play an active role in the governance of AARC. We are looking for individuals with experience in governance, finance, promotion/fundraising, or related skills, to become trustees. We are currently a small team of trustees, wanting to grow in size and experience as a team.
We are looking for individuals with lived experience of the asylum-seeking process, to become trustees. To avoid conflict of interest, we ask that you are no longer receiving direct support from AARC, but would welcome anyone who has previously received support from AARC.
As a volunteer-run organisation, we rely heavily on volunteers including peer volunteers (with lived experience). If you're keen on admin and working with people, we would really appreciate your support to help coordinate the volunteering that happens within AARC.
