Elayos values the importance of trauma-informed approaches and seeks to offer this to both staff and clients. Where appropriate, we signpost and collaborate with other organisations to ensure that the greatest range of support is given.
Alongside emotional support, we provide: a baby bank stocking essential equipment and consumables, expert infant feeding support, a small hardship fund for essential items, vouchers to clients at Christmas and toy packs for vulnerable children.
The client requests no contact from agencies or media sales.
Light Up Learning is a Scottish charity providing bespoke support for high school students. We are dedicated to igniting a love of learning in young people and transforming the nature of education in Scotland.
Our programme aims to address issues of unequal access to education and disengagement in the classroom by creating low-stress, supportive, and playful learning environments for young people who have experienced disadvantage. Through creative, one-to-one mentoring relationships, our team helps young people rediscover their curiosity, build confidence, and imagine a future they genuinely want to work towards.
We currently work in 12 schools in Lothian and Borders and are looking to grow and build new partnerships with other schools across Scotland. We want to reach more students, nurture their curiosity, and provide the resources they need to succeed. To do this, we need further funding and the newly-created role of Head of Fundraising will play a key part in achieving this growth.
We are looking for an experienced fundraiser to oversee all aspects of high-value income generation, primarily focussing on HNWIs, leading to a doubling of our income by 2030. This role will report directly to the Chair with a dotted line to our Founder, and will manage the relationship with the Consultant we have engaged to write grant applications. The role will be very hands-on, and the right candidate will thrive off working alongside a entrepreneurial and passionate team. You will be a self-starter with the hunger and curiosity to build activity and relationships, and make a strong personal impact.
We are a small charity with big ambitions, and we work in a way that reflects our ethos: collaboratively, reflectively, and with a real sense of purpose. We are excited to welcome someone who shares our belief in the transformative power of learning and relationships - and who brings the skills, creativity, and drive to help us grow our impact.
This role is designed to be flexible in both hours and location, and we are open to conversations about how best to make it work for the right person. If you are someone who thrives in a mission-driven environment and want to be part of a team that is changing the lives of young people, we warmly encourage you to apply.
