Meet the Team
 
Home Basics is run by paid members of staff and lots of volunteers.  The charity has a team of voluntary Directors who are the Trustees.  The Directors meet once a month and also have sub-groups to look at specific needs.
 
Some of the people you might encounter most often at Home Basics are:
 
 

Ruth MacDonnell - General Manager

Ruth is based at the Walkerburn depot. Ruth is the person to contact if you have any questions about how the charity is run or have any comments that you want to pass on. Ruth is assisted by Bruce and Catherine to help organise the van collections and delivery schedules.

 

 
 
Tom Knox - Depot Co-ordinator

Tom is Shop Manager at our premises in Hawick, where a selection of furniture items are available for sale. A computer terminal allows customers to see what items are held at the Walkerburn depot.

 

 

Brian and Ian - Van Drivers

We employ Ian and Brian as our drivers and they are helped by a number of different volunteers.

 

 
 
Dennis Fisher - Volunteer Development Worker

Dennis is in charge of recruiting and supporting our volunteers.  He is the person to speak to if you are interested in volunteering with Home Basics.

 

 
 
Our Volunteers

Very important people to us. Without our volunteers we couldn't keep going. We have more information about how to volunteer and short descriptions from some of them about being a volunteer on the  Volunteers Stories page.
