LGBT Health have a vacancy for a Project Manager. To see the job description and download the application pack visit the vacancy page.

The LGBT Centre for Health and Wellbeing is currently offering a restricted service to community groups and existing volunteers. The building at Howe Street has recently been closed for refurbishment as a requirement of our lease. The Board of Directors is now waiting for the outcome of funding applications before being able to announce the re-establishment of full services and re-opening to the public.

The new Project will be running to a social enterprise model; this means that we will continue to support LGBT people living and working in and travelling to Edinburgh and to offer opportunities for volunteering, health related workshops and sessions and plenty of social activities.

However we also need to remain independent and this means generating our own income now that we no longer have the funding from Big Lottery Fund and other previous funders. We will be working with a variety of partners including other LGBT organisations and will continue to support the development of community groups in the future.

The Board of Directors regrets the delay in being able to resume our services – no one is keener to get going than we are but we have to be patient! In the meantime there is planning going on and further applications for funding being submitted. We hope that you like what is on offer when we are finally able to fully re-open.

As you will see above we are also recruiting a new Project Manager. The Board of Directors welcomes enquiries about secondment to the vacant post.

Thank you for your patience and for supporting the LGBT Centre for Health and Wellbeing.

Judith Syson
Chair of the Board of Directors
