How we recruit volunteers

Panel Members

Children’s Hearings Scotland would not function without our dedicated volunteers. Every year we recruit new volunteers to join us as Panel Members. They are appointed for a period of three years, and they can then request to be reappointed for another three years. 

An infographic detailing how CHS supports our Panel Members. Our local volunteers are Panel Members, Learning Champions, Local Panel Engagement Leads, Lead Panel Practice Advisors and Panel Practice Advisors. They support Wellbeing Coordinators, Partnership Coordinators and Regional Tribunal Delivery Managers. Learning is delivered via our National Learning Manager and National Wellbeing Manager.
