Charity support volunteer volunteer roles

Volunteer Role: Lyonic Scots Society Committee Member (Remote)

4–8 hours per month • Remote • Historic Clan‑Styled Organisation

About Us

The Lyonic Scots are a long‑standing Scottish community with roots stretching back to 1746, formed in the aftermath of Culloden. Today, we are transforming our historic society into a modern, global, clan‑styled organisation — guided by our Clan Chief, The Prince of Scots, ‘The Lyon’.

As our numbers have naturally declined over generations, we are now seeking passionate volunteers from across the UK and around the world to help us grow, strengthen our identity, and shape our future as an emerging micronation‑style community.

The Role

We are recruiting Lyonic Scots Society Committee Members to support the development, governance, and cultural direction of our organisation. This is a remote volunteer role requiring 4–8 hours per month, ideal for someone who enjoys heritage, community‑building, and contributing to something meaningful and unique.

What You’ll Do

• Contribute to committee meetings and decision‑making

• Help shape the structure, culture, and future of our clan‑styled society

• Support the Prince of Scots and the Lyonic Council with organisational tasks

• Assist with planning community initiatives, heritage projects, and global outreach

• Bring fresh ideas to help us grow our membership and international presence

• Promote our values, history, and mission to new audiences

Who We’re Looking For

You don’t need Scottish heritage — just passion, reliability, and a willingness to help. We welcome volunteers from all backgrounds, especially those who are:

• Community‑minded and collaborative

• Interested in Scottish culture, clans, or history

• Organised and proactive

• Comfortable working remotely

• Creative thinkers who enjoy shaping new ideas

Experience in charity committees, community groups, or heritage organisations is helpful but not essential.

Why Join Us?

• Be part of a unique organisation with nearly 280 years of history

• Help revive and grow a community with global ambitions

• Gain experience in governance, heritage work, and community leadership

• Connect with like‑minded people across the world

• Play a meaningful role in shaping a modern micronation‑style society

Time Commitment

4–8 hours per month, flexible, remote. Meetings are held online.

We have an ambitious vision for the UK to be the best place in the world for people with a learning disability to live happy and healthy lives.

"Hosting breaks down barriers and helps you realise how similar everyone is."  

Do you have a spare room in your home?

We are looking for people with a spare room who are willing to offer a temporary home and a helping hand to a refugee or person seeking asylum as they plan their next steps in the UK. Hosting is only ever temporary and you decide how long you are willing to host for; it can vary from a few nights to several months and anything in between. 

Who can be a host?

Anyone with a spare room, or even a sofa bed, that is well connected and has good public transport systems can apply to host. This enables guests to travel to college, school, support groups or jobs, and retain their independence.

All hosts will need to complete an application form, provide two references and have a home visit. 

Support available

We carefully assess each guest and host, match according to preferences, advise on hosting arrangements and preparations, and provide ongoing support to hosts throughout the placement. We stay in contact with you when you have a guest staying with you, and someone from the team is available seven days a week if you have any questions or problems.

We will discuss with you any preferences, such as if you would prefer not to host someone who has not been vaccinated against covid, or who smokes. This will be recorded on your profile on our database so that our whole Placement Team can access this and match you with a guest who fits your circumstances.

All guests, hosts and households are different. Some hosts share meals and do activities with guests; others just give guests a key, show them round and get on with their busy lives. Our team are available to support you through every stage of the process.

Why is hosting needed?

Refugees and people seeking asylum are fleeing war or persecution in their own countries. But many who come to the UK in search of safety find themselves facing homelessness and destitution. They may be without statutory support for long periods, or need some additional help to build new lives.

Hosting is such a practical way to support refugees and it sends a powerful message of welcome, that the UK is in fact kind and compassionate to those who are trying to rebuild their lives here.

Don't have a spare room?

Maybe you have a friend or family member who does. Consider speaking to them about hosting.

"There are so few times you can do something practical to help. Hosting refugees felt like a practical thing to do."

Refugees at Home is the UK’s largest independent hosting charity, connecting those with a spare room in their home to refugees and people seeking asylum in need of somewhere to stay. Our vision is for every refugee and every person seeking asylum to have a safe place to stay. 

Many of our guests come to us on the verge of homelessness – some have already spent time sleeping on the streets. Since starting in 2016, we have supported over 7,500 guests into hosting, but the need is not going away.

The Health Hub, in partnership with BrisDoc, provides access to healthcare for women who street sex work.

On Monday, Tuesdays and Wednesday the women can see a specialist nurse, sexual health nurse, and GP. Women can also access the things they need like clothing and hot food.

Bright Connections exists to end social isolation for disabled people by creating spaces where friendships can grow, confidence can flourish, and every person feels seen, valued, and connected. We bring people together through joyful activities, shared experiences, and a community built on belonging, because together, we shine brighter.

Our story began with one simple truth: no one should feel alone.

Inspired by a sister whose world had become small, isolated, and painfully quiet, Bright Connections was created to bring light back into the lives of disabled people who often feel forgotten. Many rely on others for daily care, yet still lack the one thing every human needs: friendship.

What started as one family’s determination to bring joy and connection to a loved one has grown into a movement, a movement that believes friendship is a human right, that joy should be accessible, and that community can transform lives.
