The Salisbury Centre in Edinburgh was founded just over 50 years ago to offer a place of welcome, safety, warmth and community for all those who are seeking to grow and develop spiritually, psychologically and creatively in the company of others. If you have already have a connection with the Centre or feel an affinity to this general objective, then the Board of Trustees warmly invites you to put yourself forward to become a Trustee.

We are looking for at least three new Trustees to join the current Board who have the time and commitment to take on the immediate practical tasks and legal responsibilities of being a Trustee. Another important task this year is for Trustees to review and work towards a more financially and structurally sustainable future for the Centre.

Founding Trustee – Arts-Fronted Democracy Movement

Hive Mind Speaks

Hive Mind Speaks is a new civic arts venture using public art and participatory democracy to give people a direct voice in the policies that shape their lives. We combine provocative, large-scale guerrilla interventions (inspired by Led by Donkeys, Banksy and Ai Weiwei) with structured public deliberation and symbolic national referendums, inviting both dialogue and direct engagement on major public issues. We’ve piloted our first project cycle on the NHS, hosted a Citizens’ Jury in partnership with campaigners, and received positive feedback from figures including Rory Stewart, Ben Stewart (Led by Donkeys) and Adam Kay. We’re now working with a research consortium including the Universities of Edinburgh, Strathclyde and Queen Mary to validate our model and prepare for national scale. Our next project, still under wraps, will be our most ambitious yet. We’re now looking to appoint a founding board of trustees to help us become a registered charity and build the structures to scale. Your insight, networks and experience will help guide us through the transition from project-based initiative to long-term organisation. We’re especially interested in trustees with: • Access to values-aligned philanthropic supporters (in arts, participatory democracy, public deliberation, policy advocacy or art sales) • Experience in charity governance, management, or finance • Skills in marketing, comms, digital strategy, or brand growth • Strategic operations or scaling social enterprises • Creative income generation and business model development We’re building something disruptive but deeply strategic and we want trustees who are excited to roll up their sleeves and help guide its emergence. You don’t need prior board experience, just belief in the mission. You’ll join a creative and collaborative team shaping one of the UK’s most ambitious experiments in civic engagement. As a founding trustee, you will shape the direction, values and infrastructure of a new civic arts movement working to rebalance power through creativity and public voice. You will support our transition to registered charity status and help us build the operational, financial and governance backbone of a national-scale organisation. This is a crucial period of development and your insight, networks and expertise will be instrumental in helping us secure funding, grow sustainably and stay bold in our mission. You’ll also be contributing to a series of public art installations and referendum cycles designed to provoke real national dialogue and offer people meaningful, participatory alternatives to disengagement and disillusionment. This is a hands-on, high-influence opportunity to help shape how the arts and democracy evolve together.

Job

Freelance Web Designer (Student or Recent Grad)

Acid House Designs

I’m looking for a bold, creative web designer – ideally a UK-based student or recent grad – to help bring my new interior design studio to life online. The studio is called Acid House Designs, and it’s anything but beige. Think rave flyers, punk zines, and DIY rebellion – colourful, cheeky, loud, and personality-packed. This isn’t a clean, minimal Squarespace clone — the goal is a site that stops people in their tracks. This is a paid freelance role, but I want to be upfront: I’m launching the business solo, so while I’m not paying slave wages, the rate will be lower than what you'd charge a commercial client or agency. That’s why I’m hoping to collaborate with someone earlier in their career who’s excited to help build something fun, expressive and truly distinctive. What I can offer: – A standout portfolio piece that’s wildly different from the norm – Full creative credit and visibility – Creative freedom and input from the start – A fun, collaborative process (not just a handover of wireframes) – Real potential for future, properly paid work if this helps get me noticed The website will feature animation, a custom mascot, interactive elements, and anti-beige humour (try picking beige and you’ll trigger alarms). I’ve got strong branding and a clear vision – I just need the right designer to bring it to life technically and visually. I’m based in Edinburgh, so if you’re local that’s a bonus – we could meet and collaborate in person – but I’m open to working remotely with anyone based in the UK. To get a feel for the aesthetic and tone, visit: 👉 https://harrythedesigner.myportfolio.com Website not live yet. Email me with your portfolio and to show interest, ask questions etc: heydude@acidhousedesigns.com
