Faith in Community Dundee is looking for additional Committee Members

Faith in Community Dundee (FiCD) exists to tackle poverty in Dundee’s poorest areas by working with communities of all faiths.

FiCD is part of Faith in Community Scotland (FiCS) which is a Glasgow based charity whose vision is to walk together with people of faith in our economically poorest communities. FiCS is committed to working hand in hand with all who share the desire to challenge and overcome poverty and exclusion.  

Committee members in Dundee work collectively through committee meetings (usually five times a year) and offering support to staff, where practical.   Committee members are not trustees of the FiCS charity, but our committee’s purpose is provide the strategic direction, maintain the focus and support staff as appropriate. It would be helpful, but not essential, if those interested in this work had some experience of serving in local communities to address poverty and exclusion.   It is expected that members of the committee are people of faith and it is the intention of FiCD to have a committee that brings together different faith traditions committed to tackling poverty with our poorest communities.
 
These positions are voluntary in nature. However; all members are eligible to claim agreed expenses. For further information please contact Gordon or Varsha at 01382 825351 or email gordon@faithincommunitydundee.org
