The Opportunity
Sonic Bothy is seeking new people to join our Board of Trustees, to work alongside our existing members to support the organisation at this exciting time as we expand and reshape our award-winning inclusive music programmes, and achieve our artistic ambitions. 

This is a unique opportunity for individuals with relevant expertise looking for a rewarding leadership experience. By joining the Board of Trustees at Sonic Bothy, one of the UK’s leading inclusive music organisations, you will play a significant role in making a real difference to our beneficiaries – our people in Disabled communities to shine through creating and performing new music.

We are looking for a variety of individuals with different experiences, skills and interests to join us and help inform and support our work. We are looking to fill three specific roles: SecretaryTreasurer and Chair.

We particularly welcome applications from D/deaf and Disabled people or people with lived experience of Disability, as we are committed to bringing Disabled and D/deaf community’s voice in the heart of our decision making.

Some of our founding and existing trustees are scheduled to stand down at the next AGM.  

This opportunity is suited to applicants who are based in the UK. However, if you are based internationally and have particular experience and knowledge that you feel would be very beneficial to Sonic Bothy, please get in touch with us.

Commitment
The board meets a minimum of four times per year with meetings usually falling in March, June, September in addition to an AGM in December. At present board meetings are virtual. Board members may also be expected to give some extra time in support of the organisation’s activities, by participating in sub-committees, research, interviews etc. Board members are expected to come together in person at least once a year, and attend at least one Sonic Bothy Ensemble performance per year.

Please note that this is a voluntary, unpaid position, however the cost of travel to and from board meetings from within Scotland will be paid.  We cannot cover costs of travel from outside of Scotland.
