Committee Members
As Elderpark Housing concludes our 50th Anniversary, we are looking to build on the legacy of the dozens upon dozens of Committee members who have dedicated their time, commitment and passion to our community, to help lead us into the next half-century of success.
Since our creation in 1975 in the heart of Govan as one of the earliest community-based housing associations, voluntary Committee Members have been at the beating heart of our drive to provide safe affordable homes in a vibrant neighbourhood that prioritises resident safety and wellbeing. They provide the leadership, direction and oversight required to ensure that Elderpark Housing continues to meet the needs of our residents and the wider community.
We are looking for committee members who, above all, share the values of Elderpark Housing Association:
- Caring
- Reliable
- Fair
- Open
- Adaptable
As we launch our new 5-year strategic plan in early 2026, we are keen to hear from individuals who can support the organisation’s vision by providing oversight and support as we progress our objectives.
Whilst our committee would benefit from specific skills and experience in housing services, finance, HR and IT, the most important asset any committee member can bring is their enthusiasm for the work of the association, and a passion for community-based housing. Full training and support will be given to all members through an initial 6-month period and from our corporate team on an ongoing basis.
| What we ask of you | How we will help you in the role |
| Working as a team with fellow committee members to provide strategic direction to the organisation | IT support and training for systems you require access to |
| Attendance and preparation for 9 x 2 hour Committee meetings a year, held on the last Tuesday of the month at 6pm (this can be online) | A full induction programme, designed to work around your time and other commitments |
| Participation in one Sub-Committee that meets 4 times a year (this can be online) | Access to training and development for the role |
| A willingness to learn and develop in the role | Provide networking opportunities through local groups and sector events |
