YOUR SUPPORT
MEANS THE WORLD TO US

Volunteer in our MSTC Community

Are you someone who would like to contribute actively to our community?

We are always on the lookout for wonderful volunteers!

We offer a range of opportunities at the centre, from helping with our Oxygen Therapy service to reception and administrative support. We will always provide you with the necessary training and support. We also ask that you commit to volunteering on a regular basis – This can be as little as two hours a week!

As we provide services for people living with long term health conditions, we would love to encourage people who have similar conditions to volunteer too. By engaging with our clients and sharing your experiences, it might not only inspire them but also help them feel understood and not alone in dealing with their condition.

We have a small team, so any additional help is very important. We are a friendly bunch here and we cannot wait for you to join our team. If you are interested in volunteering, make sure to give us a call at 0131-554-5384 or email us at administrator@mstc-lothian.org.uk.

Become a Trustee for our Board

If you know someone or you yourself would like to support those who are living with MS, another neurological or long-term health condition, why not support us by becoming a Trustee?

MSTC is a well-established Lothian-wide charity, which empowers person-centred self-management support for people living with many different long-term health conditions in a community-based health and wellbeing centre.

We offer continuous support through a range of specialist services, including physiotherapy, practical activities, oxygen therapy, alternative therapies, information and advice. Despite the challenges COVID-19 has brought, we have responded effectively and are still experiencing an exciting period in the development and transformation of our charity.

We are currently seeking the energetic input of individuals, who are motivated and wish to add value to the work of our board. Our vision is to:

• Continue to be holistic in our approach and provide continuity of support with a range of inclusive, accessible and affordable self-management activity options, reducing barriers to health and inclusion and expanding the diversification of our client community.
  
  
• Create a new community-based health and wellbeing centre in a geographical location that is supported by an established community of interest, allowing us to continue to build community relationships and social capital.
  
  
• Leverage health and social partnerships of strategic importance - addressing priority areas such as promoting healthy lifestyles; reducing isolation and loneliness; tackling health inequalities and building strong inclusive communities.
