A talking newspaper is a simple concept: articles from a printed newspaper are read out loud into a recording (memory stick or app) for the benefit of those who cannot do this for themselves - e.g. blind or partially sighted or anyone who finds reading a newspaper difficult.
Lothiansound is a small Scottish registered charity based in Edinburgh, run entirely by volunteers, funded by donations, and managed by a Committee of Trustees. With the publisher's permission, we produce a weekly audio edition of articles selected from the “Edinburgh Evening News”. This is distributed by returnable memory stick inside a returnable wallet. New Listeners are sometimes referred to us by SSI agencies, or they can self-refer on request.
Lothiansound’s Listeners are mainly in the Edinburgh area, but might be anywhere in the UK (and sometimes beyond) and receive this service completely free of charge. We know that our Listeners appreciate us hugely, because they regularly tell us so!
Your SECRETARY role would be to assure the Charity’s handling of administrative matters, including:
- Prepare Agendas and Minutes of Committee Meetings (currently on Zoom) – six meetings per year.
- Prepare Agenda, Notice and Minutes of Annual General Meeting (currently on Zoom).
- Maintain Register of Operating Policies.
- (In association with Chair & ViceChair) Maintain existing good relationship with the landlord of our physical office (in an Edinburgh suburb) which is where our weekly admin/copying teams do their stuff with Listeners’ incoming/outgoing wallets.
- Assist (the Treasurer) in preparation of Annual Report and Accounts.
- Be Lothiansound’s nominee with the Charity Regulator (OSCR).
Your (Trustee/Office Bearer) role can be carried out mainly from home, other than ad hoc visits to the office if necessary.. There is no involvement in recording and distributing the audio newspaper unless the applicant wishes to do so.
No professional qualification is needed. Experience of some of the above matters would be advantageous. Requirement for competency with word processing, plus clear and accurate communication skills, and ability to convey documents efficiently by email etc. Occasional need for printing out can occur – e.g. simple A4 sheets for notice boards at the office. Outgoing Secretary will be on hand for initial assistance and transition.
