About Age UK London
Age UK London is a charity that campaigns for an age-friendly London. We campaign for specific changes to improve the lives of older Londoners and ensure that their experiences, needs and contributions are heard and taken into account by decision makers.
We do this in three ways:
· Core campaigns, through which we will secure specific, sustainable changes to the policies and practices of decision makers to improve the lives of older Londoners.
· Shaping the agenda, by ensuring that the experiences, needs and contributions of older Londoners are heard by decision makers and form part of the public discourse on the future of London.
· Supporting the London network of local Age UKs. An age-friendly city relies on both campaigning and direct service provision, so we support the network of local Age UKs in London who deliver vital front-line services.
Since becoming a charity focused solely on campaigning in 2019, Age UK London has adopted and implemented a new strategy. We have agreed campaign priorities; successfully changed policy at a London-wide and borough level; and adapted our finance, HR and IT systems to better support a campaigning charity.
Who we're looking for
We are looking for a candidate to cover our CEO’s maternity leave from the end of May 2024 until the middle of February 2025 to oversee the continued delivery of the charity's current strategy. This includes securing policy changes in our current campaign priority areas of digital inclusion, public toilet provision and poverty amongst older Londoners; supporting the development of new campaigns; and establishing systems to increase our financial sustainability.

Help us strengthen management, leadership and governance across the non-profit specialist advice sector.
We are looking to recruit someone with a real interest in organisational development and training to work with the Management & Leadership Hub Director in all aspects of the Hub’s work. This is a great opportunity for someone who wants to develop and expand their knowledge and experience but who also wants an opportunity to take the lead in developing and delivering resources, training and support.
The LAPG Management & Leadership Hub exists to provide training, consultancy and capacity building resources to non-profit specialist advice organisations (like Law Centres and Local Citizens Advice).In addition, we are actively building a community of managers across the non-profit advice sector.
We also provide the Funder Plus (grantee support) programme for grantees of the Access to Justice Foundation and London Legal Support Trust.This includes the provision of training (on issues such as management and leadership skills) and resources (policies, procedures, templates and guidance etc.) as well as consultancy support, mentoring and troubleshooting.
The Hub is run by Matthew Howgate, an experienced sector consultant and trainer.Hosted by LAPG its aim is to help sustain and strengthen the advice sector thus expanding access to advice for the vulnerable and marginalised.
We believe that by strengthening management, leadership and governance within organisations we can both make those organisations more resilient and help create space for them to help more people.
This is a fixed term role until 31st March 2026, with the possibility of extension if additional funding can be secured.There is also the potential for this to become a full-time role if additional funding can be secured.

Restore Hope exists to see hope restored and lives and communities transformed.
We are a Christian charity working to bring hope to people across our local community. We work with people of all faiths and none, showing them love; walking alongside them on their journey; advocating for them when they aren’t able; and helping them develop skills and confidence to take their next steps for a more positive future.
This is a particularly exciting time for Restore Hope. Since 2002 we have been based on 360 acres of stunning countryside at Latimer Park, on the River Chess set within the Chilterns AONB; but we are now in a time of rapid growth. In 2025 we will be opening a second site - Restore Hope Amersham, a new Community Hub on Woodside Road, 3 miles from our current home.
We are looking forward to continuing the work we’ve become known for over the past two decades whilst also developing new partnership working with other organisations to deliver excellent support. Both of our sites will be buzzing with activity, where people will interact, share experiences and encourage one another.
Restore Hope has grown significantly in recent years, in terms of breadth of services provided and depth of connection to those we are serving. Therefore, we are now seeking to expand our core team and appoint a talented person into the new role of Fundraising Manager.
This role is integral in supporting the charity’s ambitious income targets. In this role you will support the Development Director and make a vital contribution to our primary objective to bring about transformative change for children, young people and families by unlocking income and raising the profile of Restore Hope.
Working with the Development Director, this role will implement the fundraising plan, seeking funding from trusts and foundations, corporate and individual donors, partnership contracts and events. This is a new role and as such, an opportunity to step in and make the role your own.
