Badenoch & Strathspey is a remote rural area situated south of Inverness in the Scottish Highlands. Its small villages are considered to be amongst the most geographically deprived in Scotland due to their distance to services. Inaccessible and infrequent transport means many people are left isolated or are unable to access services and activities.
In 1999 Badenoch and Strathspey Community Transport Company was created by and for the people of this area to provide accessible transport. In 2022, recognising that, through our transport provision, we were providing a wider range of services, we rebranded and changed our name to Badenoch and Strathspey Community ConnXions (BSCX).
Through its work, BSCX tackles the underlying causes of isolation providing links and social contacts for its service users. In 2023, BSCX was awarded the Community Transport Association’s best Community Transport Operator in the UK, an achievement we are very proud of.
The organisation is growing and developing at pace, so it's an exciting time to get involved. We are highly respected by health professionals in the area. From care workers to doctors, all introduce service users to BSCX to support their health and wellbeing. BSCX is supported by a small number of part-time staff and around 70 volunteers, who all care passionately about our community.
PURPOSE OF THE JOB
Have you graduated in the last 4 years? Would you like to join a small and dynamic charity in the heart of the community? Do you have an interest in digital technology?
