Our Staff Team

Blurb from Donald needed

​

My name is Derek and I am the Minibus Driver/Vehicle Manager.  As part of my day I may be asked to shop, deliver shopping, delivery prescriptions, transport clients to various locations, deliver items and various other duties.  

​

It is very rewarding and can be very busy.

My role within the company is to engage with both individuals and groups and look for ways to lessen social isolation and loneliness.  

In my spare time, I volunteer for various local community projects and enjoy spending time with my family.

​

I have now been with the charity for 14 years! My role includes everything to do with finance as well as managing areas related to governance, such as arranging board meetings and our AGM. You’ll find me in the office most days supporting the team and doing all the day-to-day tasks involved in keeping the charity running smoothly.  

I have two functions in BSCX. On a Monday I answer the phones and perform office admin tasks, and on Tuesdays I help the team out with some IT activities.  When not at BSCX, I volunteer for Abilitynet (and IT support charity for the elderly and vulnerable) and travel about in my camper.. 

​

With a dedicated group of volunteers, I arrange meetings for people who live alone or who may feel socially isolated.  Meetings can be regular 1-to-1 blethers or regular small events to help bring people together, giving opportunities for people to try out new things or old things they used to enjoy.

​

I live and work in Aviemore and have been developing the charity for the last 25 years.  Although now working part-time, my passion for local people to live well in their community with access to service and facilities continues. 

In my spare time I enjoy going out on my e-bike, playing golf and walking with friends.

My role as Office Manager includes dealing with queries, general office administration and includes the booking of all transport-related journeys.  

​

When not working, I enjoy travelling, spending time with my family and friends, long walks with our dog, listening to music and reading.
