The vacancy
Our Activity Centres provide innovative and person-centred services and support to veterans struggling with sight loss. The services aim to reduce isolation and anxiety while improving independence and confidence to live well with a visual impairment now and in the future. The services offer veterans and their families and carers access to information, support, meaningful activity and social engagement in a welcoming environment.


We are looking for a Centre Officer who will empower our veterans to enjoy such activities. By enhancing their independence and maximising the benefit and enjoyment they gain from attending the Centre, you will support the veterans to revisit past interests and gain the skills to enjoy new ones.

We will build on our rich history to create an organisation which is prepared for the future, and ready to respond to the needs of people impacted by vision loss.


Our vision is bold. We want to be at the leading edge of positive societal change by:

Investing our funds in the support that makes the biggest difference Putting our community at the heart of what we do Campaigning for change Accelerating prevention and treatment of eye conditions Fostering a collaborative culture of innovation and learning
We're determined that no-one should face sight loss alone. We're committed to improving, diversifying and growing our services to make sure we can reach many more people with sight loss - when and where they need us.


Our organisational values - Transform, Unite and Thrive - underpin all the work we do at Sight Scotland and Sight Scotland Veterans.
