🌿 Join the Board of Anam Cara Fasgadh 🌿

Anam Cara Fasgadh is a Scottish charity based in Argyll, founded in 2018 to bring compassion, respite, and hope to families bereaved through the loss of a baby, child, or young person.

Through Poppy’s Place — our peaceful caravan at Tralee Bay Holiday Park on Scotland’s west coast — and the memorial events we host, we have supported more than 100 families from across Scotland and beyond. Our vision is to expand this support through a network of safe, nurturing spaces across the country where grieving families can rest, reflect, and heal.

✨ We are now seeking new Directors to join our Board and help shape the next chapter of our journey.

As a Director, you will:
✔ Guide the charity’s strategy, values, and long-term vision
✔ Ensure good governance, transparency, and financial sustainability
✔ Champion equality, inclusion, and best practice
✔ Build partnerships with individuals, businesses, and organisations to grow awareness and support

💚 What you’ll gain:

• A chance to make a real difference in the lives of bereaved families

• Strategic, governance, and leadership experience

• Opportunities to expand your network locally and nationally

• The reward of using your time and talents to support a cause rooted in compassion

📅 Commitment: Around 4 Board meetings a year (mix of Zoom and in-person), plus our AGM and occasional events. The role is voluntary, but pre-agreed travel expenses are reimbursed.

We welcome applications from people of all backgrounds and experiences, especially those currently underrepresented at Board level. Empathy, commitment, and a belief in our mission are essential.

Together, we can ensure that no family walks the journey of grief alone. 🌿
