Policy Volunteer

About Next Chapter Scotland
Next Chapter Scotland exists to help anyone navigate the consequences for them or their family members of having a criminal record or of being under investigation for a crime.

We offer honest, non-judgmental help to anyone who – or whose family member - is involved in the criminal justice system. We help people understand the personal, financial, emotional and social consequences for them or their loved ones and address the stigma and discrimination they can face as a result.

We do this because we have a vision of a future society in which everyone is treated equally for who they are in the present and no one’s future is defined by their past.

‍About the role
We're looking for an enthusiastic volunteer to support us in responding to national, justice-related policy proposals in a manner that supports our wider work of positively influencing the justice system.
Ideally, we're keen to find someone with professional social policy skills and experience but we would also be very keen to chat with anyone looking to develop their skills and experience in the policy space.

Travel details

The role would be home-based with meetings taking place online.
