About ScotsCare
For over four centuries, ScotsCare has been a beacon of hope for Scots navigating life’s challenges in London. Our journey began in the early 17th century, and today, we stand as a testament to resilience, compassion, and community support.
Our mission goes beyond simple financial aid. We understand that true support means addressing the complex, interconnected challenges individuals and families face. Whether it’s a family struggling with complex issues, a homeless individual seeking support, or an older person experiencing isolation, ScotsCare offers a holistic approach to support.
Our work spans multiple dimensions of care. We provide financial grants to alleviate immediate economic pressures, but we don’t stop there. Our team of dedicated professionals offer bespoke mental health services, including substance misuse, job coaching, housing and homelessness support, and advocacy services. We see each person as an individual with unique strengths and potential, not just a set of challenges to be solved.
The heart of ScotsCare is our people – both staff and volunteers. We’re constantly seeking passionate professionals who believe in our mission of breaking cycles of deprivation. Our team represents diverse backgrounds and skills, united by a common goal: creating meaningful opportunities for Scots in London.
We operate three sheltered housing sites, provide psychotherapy sessions, and run community-building programmes like our ScotsCare choir. These initiatives are more than services; they’re pathways to reconnection, healing, and empowerment.
About the role
As we establish our newly formed Property Sub-Committee, we are looking for a new Trustee to join our board and committee.
As a Trustee, this is an opportunity to be part of shaping ScotsCare’s vision.
Who we are looking for
We seek an individual passionate about supporting Scots in London with executive-level property experience to join our existing, skilled, and diverse team of Trustees.
Experience in property, asset management, estates management, housing and/or development or construction will be vital in ensuring the property strategy is congruent with strategic direction.
You will demonstrate an ability to provide constructive challenge, offering insights that support. Communication is key, so we are looking for a Trustee who is personable, approachable, and able to work seamlessly with our Chief Executive and property lead.
You will be a trusted advisor who brings both professional rigor and a genuine commitment to the charity’s goals, helping to drive ScotsCare’s vision and supporting its important work for Scottish communities.

With over 1,300 students, including a significant proportion eligible for free school meals and a growing number of learners with education, health and care plans, we are proud of our inclusive ethos and high standards.
Since converting to academy status in 2013, Westfield has consistently been rated “Good” by Ofsted, most recently in November 2024. Our ethos is centred on three drivers – Believe, Strive, and Achieve — and these are central to the culture of the school and underpin everything that we do. Our students are supported to reach their full academic potential and to grow into resilient, confident and compassionate young people.
We have an experienced and high-performing leadership team, excellent facilities and a growing reputation as the leading non-selective school in West Watford.
Our recent focus has been on improving student enrichment, strengthening financial resilience and ensuring a robust safeguarding framework. We are shaping our future ambitions, which include further capital investment and the development of our site, as well as other educational and community initiatives. Anyone joining Westfield Academy now has the opportunity to make a tangible impact and influence our future.
About the roles
As a trustee, you will play a key role in shaping the strategic direction of Westfield Academy. The Board is responsible for ensuring that the school delivers the best possible outcomes for students while maintaining sound financial management and effective governance.
Who we are looking for
For both roles, we are interested to speak to those who have governance experience.
For the education role, we are seeking someone currently or recently working in secondary school leadership, ideally at Assistant Head level or above. You will bring a strong understanding of attainment data, teaching and learning, safeguarding, and strategic school improvement. Experience with Ofsted inspection frameworks, curriculum development, or SEND provision would be valuable.
For the business leadership role, we are looking for a local employer or senior business figure with strategic oversight experience, financial acumen and a genuine interest in education and the local community. You will be comfortable operating in a governance setting and prepared to engage fully with the details of reports and strategic plans. Knowledge of organisational development, audit, or risk would be an advantage.
We particularly welcome interest from individuals with a local connection to Watford or the surrounding areas. This ensures our Board remains rooted in the community we serve and attuned to the lived experience of our students and families.
This is an exciting time to help lead an academy with strong foundations and real ambition. If you can bring the commitment and capabilities we are looking for, we would love to hear from you.
