Are you ready to build a legacy that saves lives?

In England today, too many men are fighting silent battles. They are navigating the complexities of mental health and personal growth without a compass or a tribe. At MINDSET, we are changing that narrative. We believe that through brotherhood, community, and intentional self-improvement, every man can reclaim his strength and purpose.

We have the vision. We have the momentum. Now, we need the voice.

The Volunteer Opportunity: Communications Officer (Volunteer)

As our first-ever Communications Officer, you won’t just be "posting on socials"—you will be the architect of our energy. You will lead the charge in creating an exciting buzz around MINDSET, raising awareness for men’s mental wellbeing, and ensuring our mission is heard in every corner of England. You are the one who will take our message and make it a movement.

Who You Are

We aren't looking for a CV; we’re looking for a character. We need a storyteller who is:

• A Creative Catalyst: You have an entrepreneurial spirit and a knack for creating "buzz." You know how to capture attention and turn it into engagement.

• A People Person: You understand the power of connection. You can speak to men from all walks of life with authenticity, empathy, and a touch of wit.

• A Person of Action: You don’t wait for the news—you make it. You have the passion and dedication to elevate MINDSET from a brand-new charity to a household name.

• A Believer: You are deeply committed to men’s mental health and believe that personal growth should be a conversation every man is proud to be part of.

The Volunteer Role

Working directly with the Founder and the Board, you will lead our external voice. You’ll manage our digital presence, create high-impact content, and build relationships that raise our profile. Your goal is simple but massive: make sure every man in England knows that MINDSET is here for him.

Why Join Us?

This is a chance to be there at the "Day One" of something massive. You will have a blank canvas to build a brand identity that is bold, heart-felt, and modern. You’ll gain incredible experience in PR and brand management, but more importantly, your words could be the reason a man reaches out for help for the very first time.

"A man’s mindset is the foundation of his future. Help us tell the story that changes the future for men across England."

If you have the creative spark to lead and the heart to serve, we want to hear from you. Help us turn the tide on men’s mental health by putting MINDSET on the map.
