  • Dementia Friendly Meeting Centre Spaces Facilitor - STAND

    Created: 6/8/2026

    Post: Dementia Friendly Meeting Centre Spaces Facilitator 
    Organisation: STAND
    Contract: 1 year fixed term
    Hours: 12 hours per week
    Salary: £26,000 per annum, pro rata
    Locations: Three weekly groups within 10 miles of Kirkcaldy


    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. They believe that life doesn't stop with a diagnosis - people can continue to grow, connect and enjoy new experiences.

    Their 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.

    They're looking for a compassionate, creative Facilitator to help run three of their 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 their Meeting Centre Spaces

    What they're looking for

    You don't need to be a dementia specialist - they 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 they 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
