The Nottingham and Nottinghamshire Refugee Forum (NNRF) is a £1m+ community-based charity providing advice and support to individuals and families who seek asylum or live as refugees. The Forum is a key partner of Nottingham City Council, and its work spans a number of separate programmes, much of which is delivered from our building and cafe in the heart of the city.

What exactly does the Forum do?

• We believe in a future where people are treated fairly and compassionately, and where everyone has the chance to feel safe and live with dignity.
• Working in partnership with others, our focus is on helping refugees and asylum seekers to rebuild their lives and to help with their immediate needs. We do this by providing a welcoming community centre, and by offering a range of support services and programmes, including impartial advice, advocacy and signposting.

We are seeking to appoint several Trustees during 2025, each on an initial 3-year term and applications are welcome from any background. In common with many organisations in this sector, people from ethnic minority backgrounds and those with lived experience of the asylum system are underrepresented on our Board at this time. Applicants who have governance experience, for example in schools or local government, or who may be working in a legal/HR role may be of interest. However, the most important attribute is that you have the energy, time and interest necessary to support the Forum’s work.  Candidates will be appointed solely on a defined selection criterion, ensuring that ethnicity plays no role in the decision-making process.

The role of our Trustees is vital to what we do and it means that you can support those seeking refuge to re-establish themselves in a new country. The Board of Trustees has the ultimate authority and responsibility for directing and governing the organisation. Being a Trustee can be a hugely rewarding experience - it offers a fantastic development opportunity, the chance to make a positive impact, to build new relationships and to gain experience in charity operations. As a Trustee you will be able to use your knowledge, skills and experience and have a direct influence over a cause you care about. You will also get free access to a range of Board-level learning resources, including articles, webinars and national networking events.

These are voluntary roles, with meetings usually set for after normal working hours. The minimum time commitment is quite modest - we have six Board meetings per year, each lasting a couple of hours, and an Annual General Meeting in November. We do actively encourage Trustees to also get involved in the work of at least one of our committees, so all of this means a commitment of no more than 1 day per month.

How can I apply?

• In the first instance, please send your CV (if you have one) and/or letter of application to our Chair of Trustees, Graham Bell, telling us about your interest in the role why you want to help us by volunteering as a Trustee. You are also welcome to send your application in the form of a short video. 
• We will also be holding online events during July and September as a way of introducing our work and as an opportunity for you to ask any questions about the role. Further details will be posted on social media.

This role is advertised as part of TPP's Free Giving Back Services. This volunteer advertisement copy has been supplied to TPP and applicants apply direct to the organisation. Please contact the organisation directly if you have any questions about this volunteer role.

We're on the look out for a volunteer to join us in the volunteer role of Volunteer Coordinator and help us shape the future of Urban Youth!

If you're a natural leader with a talent for inspiring and organising people and you have experience in volunteer management, HR or a strong desire to build a thriving volunteer community from the ground up, then we'd love to hear from you!

Urban Youth is a brand-new youth work charity being set up to build a vibrant community for young people across London. Our mission is to provide engaging youth work activities, offer positive mentorship, and create safe spaces where young people can thrive, develop new skills, discover themselves and reach their full potential.

We are currently in the crucial setup phase and are looking for a dedicated and passionate Volunteer Coordinator to lead the set-up, development and management of our entire volunteer programme. This is a unique, high-impact opportunity to shape how Urban Youth attracts, supports, and empowers the incredible individuals who will drive our mission forward.

What will you do?

In this pivotal role, you'll be responsible for building and nurturing our volunteer community from day one.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Strategy & Development: Working with the Founder and Board of Trustees to develop and implement Urban Youth's comprehensive volunteer strategy, policies, and procedures.

• Recruitment & Onboarding: Leading the full recruitment cycle, from writing compelling role descriptions and promoting opportunities to interviewing candidates and managing the onboarding process, ensuring a positive initial experience.

• Training & Support: Coordinating and, where appropriate, delivering essential training for volunteers (e.g., safeguarding, code of conduct) and ensuring they receive ongoing support and supervision.

• Engagement & Retention: Developing initiatives to recognise, appreciate, and retain volunteers, fostering a strong sense of community and commitment.

• Database Management: Establishing and maintaining an efficient system for volunteer records, hours, training, and communications.

• Safeguarding Compliance: Ensuring all volunteers comply with Urban Youth's safeguarding policies, including managing DBS checks and mandatory training requirements.

• Problem Solving: Acting as the primary point of contact for volunteer queries, feedback, and any issues that may arise.

Who are we looking for?

We need someone who is not only deeply passionate about empowering young people but also brings proven leadership and organisational skills to the table.

You should be:

• Experienced: Ideally, you'll have prior experience in volunteer coordination, HR, project management, or a similar role requiring people management and organisational skills.

• Exceptional Communicator: Able to build rapport with diverse individuals, lead meetings, and communicate clearly and inspiringly, both verbally and in writing.

• Highly Organised: Excellent at managing multiple priorities, systems, and processes with a keen eye for detail.

• Empathetic & Supportive: A genuine desire to support others and create a positive, inclusive environment for all volunteers.

• Proactive & Solutions-Oriented: Able to take initiative, identify challenges, and develop effective solutions independently.

• Committed: Willing to dedicate consistent hours per week (flexible, some tasks can be done remotely, with some in-person involvement for training/events) to establish and grow this crucial function.

This is a voluntary, unremunerated role, but it offers unparalleled experience in charity leadership, the chance to build a programme from scratch, and the immense satisfaction of enabling a new organisation to make a profound difference in countless young lives.

Ready to lead our volunteer community?

If you're eager to take on a leadership role and build the volunteer force that will make Urban Youth a success, we'd love to hear from you!

Let's work together to create a brighter future for urban youth!
