Do you envisage a world free from animal suffering?
As a Grassroots Organiser, you will play a pivotal role in making this vision a reality by organising campaign events and actions in your local area and bringing together a community of like-minded people to advocate for animals.
Why join The Humane League?
We exist to end the abuse of animals raised for food. We do this through delivering corporate-focused and legislative campaigns, demanding better animal welfare with an effective and pragmatic approach.
The actions and events you organise will place vital pressure onto our corporate targets and open the eyes of the general public to the truth of factory farming. You will be a key player in reducing animal suffering and bringing an end to the worst and most widespread abuse of animals raised for food.
Watch this short video to find out what volunteering with us is like!
As a Grassroots Organiser, you will change animal lives by:
- Organising events and actions in your local area
- These will include peaceful protests, public outreach, social meet-ups and leafleting.
- Ideally you will organise 1 event every 1-2 months
- We will provide you with all the support and materials you need, as well as covering relevant expenses
- Growing a community of advocates by promoting your events and encouraging others to join you, bringing people together for the animals to create change
- Joining us at national events organised by staff team
- Taking campaign actions remotely, such as writing emails, letters and social media actions
- And much more!
If you’re excited by the prospect of leading and organising effective actions at a local level, all while making a genuine difference to animals, this is the role for you.
You will be supported directly by THL staff members who will steward you throughout your time with us, including a full onboarding process to get you started. No prior experience is needed and we’ll give you everything you need to build your skills and take action.
There is no set time commitment for this role, all we ask is that you can organise at least 1 event every 1-2 months. On average, it takes around 4-6 hours to deliver an event (including planning and delivery).
Whether you're retired, working full time, a student, or somewhere in between - we would love to welcome you to our community.
PLEASE NOTE: We aim to get you started within 2 weeks of your application, so please ensure this is the right time for you to onboard with us.

We are looking for enthusiastic people to join our trustee committee and help shape and deliver animal welfare in the East and South East London areas.
The RSPCA East London and Havering Branch aims to align its core objectives with those of the National RSPCA — specifically: to rescue, rehabilitate, rehome, and protect animals.
The RSPCA East London and Havering Branch CIO (the "Branch") is seeking to appoint new Trustees to join the Branch Trustee Committee. This is an exciting time for the Branch as we aim to grow and enhance our services across East and South East London.
What does the Branch do?
Our Branch covers postcodes within East and South East London (those beginning with E or RM). We operate boarding facilities where we care for, rehabilitate, and rehome cats rescued by RSPCA Inspectors.
We are an independent charity, working in partnership with the National RSPCA, a separate charity. Together, we deliver the RSPCA's mission — focused on frontline animal welfare and community engagement.
As an independent branch, we fundraise and manage our resources independently to deliver animal welfare services. We receive some financial support and guidance on best practices from the National RSPCA to ensure we comply with Charity Commission regulations.
Future Plans
In the coming years, our plans include:
· Developing and executing plans for sustainable income growth
· Building out our volunteer and supporter network
These plans are continuously reviewed and developed by the Branch Trustees to ensure we focus our efforts on helping as many animals as possible.
What are we looking for?
We are looking for people from all social and cultural backgrounds with experience or skills in any of the following areas:
· Accounting
· Marketing and Communications (including social media, PR, websites)
· Fundraising (including corporate fundraising, trust fund and grant applications)
· Local community and supporter engagement
· Charity growth and development
· Veterinary or animal welfare
· Volunteer management
Alongside relevant experience, we’re looking for people who are committed to the RSPCA’s charitable objectives and share our passion for animal welfare. You should be a creative, innovative team player, bring a fresh perspective, and be able to turn ideas into action.
We are particularly interested in hearing from individuals who live or work in the areas we cover (E or RM postcodes), or who can travel to London for Branch meetings and fundraising activities.
What can we offer in return?
We offer all Trustees:
· Support from both the RSPCA team
· A platform to utilise your skills and experience to shape the charity and directly impact local animal welfare
· An opportunity to gain new skills and develop existing ones while making a real difference
· A chance to expand your professional and personal network by working with like-minded people
Practical Considerations
Please note:
· You must be based in London or can have regular access to London to join our fundraising activities
· You must be aged 18 or over and a UK tax resident to join the Trustee Committee
· You must be a member of our Branch before you are eligible to be co-opted or elected as a Trustee
· Trustees are elected for a 12-month term each year
· Reasonable expenses will be reimbursed
· Trustees must sign a Declaration of Willingness to Act and confirm they are not disqualified from being a Trustee (more information is available on the Charity Commission website)
What difference will you make?
As a Trustee, you will:
· Help shape the strategy and direction of the Branch
· Contribute your unique skills and experience to decision-making
· Work as part of a collaborative and motivated team
· Develop your own skills or pass them on to others
Together, we can make a significant impact on animal welfare in our community.
Please include also a cover letter explaining why you are interested in this role and detailing your relevant skills, knowledge, experience, and motivation.

Time period: Approx 4 months (July - October 2025) with the opportunity to continue beyond this if interested.
ABOUT US
We’re IAPWA (International Aid for the Protection & Welfare of Animals) - a UK-registered animal welfare charity dedicated to creating a better future for animals in need.
Our charity is small but mighty! Since our inception in 2009 we have helped over 50,000 animals through our projects and support programmes across the globe. From managing humane dog and cat population projects to reduce the number of puppies and kittens born to suffer on the streets, to providing aid to companion animals, working donkeys, and endangered wildlife - our work is vast. And we're not slowing down any time soon.
As a small charity we can’t do what we do without the support of volunteers and fundraisers. That’s where you come in.
THE ROLE
Walk for Paws is an exciting fundraising initiative that empowers supporters to organise sponsored dog walks to raise vital funds for dogs and cats in need. This summer, we’re scaling it up to support our huge upcoming animal welfare project. We urgently need to raise money to help dogs and cats living in terrible conditions in an animal centre in Borneo - but we need your help to make it a success.
We’re looking for a passionate and proactive Volunteer Walk for Paws Co-ordinator to help grow this campaign over a 4-month period. You’ll play a key role in growing, inspiring and supporting our community of Pack Leaders - the people who run Walk for Paws events in their local area.
This is a fantastic opportunity to gain hands-on experience in community fundraising and supporter engagement, while directly contributing to improving the lives of animals in need.
The Volunteer Walk for Paws Co-ordinator will:

Onboard new Pack Leaders, supporting them to set up and promote their Walk for Paws fundraising events

The ideal person will be:
-
A friendly, enthusiastic communicator who enjoys engaging with people and building relationships
-
A self-starter who is happy working independently and bringing their own ideas to the table
-
Organised and reliable, with good attention to detail and follow-up
-
Passionate about animal welfare and making a difference
-
Experience in fundraising, supporter care, or community outreach (even in a voluntary or informal setting) is helpful but not essential
What you’ll gain:
-
A chance to be part of a meaningful campaign supporting animals in need
-
Experience in charity fundraising, community engagement and volunteer management
-
Flexible hours and remote working
-
A reference from IAPWA and the potential to continue volunteering with us beyond the initial four-month term if desired
-
The satisfaction of knowing you’ve helped raise life-changing funds for vulnerable animals

We’re proud to be the oldest welfare charity in existence
- We were the first to introduce a law to protect animals and we work hard to ensure that all animals can live a life free from pain and suffering.
-
Through our campaigns we raise standards of care and awareness of issues for the animals who have no voice. We push for laws to be changed, improving the welfare of animals on farms, in research labs, in the wild, in paddocks or in our homes.
-
Through investigations and prosecutions, we stand up to those who deliberately harm animals to send out a clear message - we will not tolerate animal abuse.
-
Our highly trained officers tackle neglect and cruelty at every level and are working hard to stamp out large-scale serious, organised and commercial animal cruelty.
-
We believe every animal has the right to be counted as an individual. Animals can rely on us to rescue them when they need us most. To rehabilitate them wherever possible, provide them with the very best veterinary care and to find them new homes, either through rehoming or release.
What are we looking for?

ROLDA does not support visa applications for volunteers. All in-person volunteers must have the legal right to volunteer in the country where they are located. It is the volunteer's responsibility to ensure they meet the necessary visa and work authorisation requirements before participating in any activities with ROLDA. However, remote volunteer roles do not require a visa, as they can be performed from anywhere.
Our mission is to ensure animals have a good life by advocating for them and by inspiring everyone to treat them with compassion and respect.
