We are currently recruiting for Online Peer Supporters, to provide one-to-one and group support to both individuals who gamble and those affected by someone else’s gambling.

Role Responsibilities

Online Peer Supporters will:

• Navigate and guide contacts through existing services at GamCare and the National Gambling Support Network.
• Use motivational interviewing skills while drawing from their own lived experience to provide a supportive, non-judgemental space for those affected by gambling harms.
• Facilitate discussions via our online support services, including:

Email – you will be paired with an individual for regular email correspondence (on average 1-2 emails per week for approximaely 6 months)
Chatrooms – you will facilitate group discussions and supporting conversation between people at various stages of recovery
Forum – you will initiate discussions, respond to posts, and provide encouragement, signposting and support to forum users

• Help individuals set aims and goals to move to a more positive, sustained recovery whilst also providing resources to support people with these plans.
• Recognise the purpose and remit of our service and signposting to other internal and external support where appropriate.

What can I expect from GamCare?

In return, GamCare will:

• Provide a full, comprehensive induction and training programme
• Give you access to a dedicated Volunteer Coordinator
• Offer and arrange 1:1 and group supervision
• Fully support your own wellbeing and recovery journey
• Give ongoing training and development opportunities
• Provide access to some internal job opportunities within our services team
• Provide a reference after 3 months of regular volunteering

Role Requirements

For any of our volunteering roles we ask that you have lived experience of gambling-related harms. This includes being affected by someone else’s gambling (friend or family member).

We ask that you’ve been in positive, sustained recovery for at least one year before volunteering with us.

This role is completely remote, so you’ll need access to a reliable internet connection, a computer and a confidential space.

For full role requirements, please see the Role Profile on our website.

Please note that this role is subject to a Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check. Please do not let that deter you from applying as all applications will be considered.

Availability & Commitment

We ask that you have availability at a regular time for around 1-2 hours per week for a minimum of 6 months.

Before volunteering with us, you will need to complete a mixture of self-directed online training and live online group training sessions delivered by our Volunteer Coordinators over a period of approximately 4 weeks.

Volunteer for an organisation combating mental health with menstrual literacy ❤️

Howami is an immersive menstrual wellness app for teens. Howami addresses the growing mental health risks for women, low menstrual literacy, and persistent period stigma. The World Health Organization’s 2023 Menstrual Health report highlights the global need for improved menstrual literacy and awareness. This report emphasizes the importance of education about menstruation and creating positive norms. Our innovation leverages advanced gaming technology for therapeutic outcomes, aiming to counteract the negative effects of social media by promoting embodiment and self-awareness.

Howami is an innovative mobile application designed to help  menstruating individuals engage with their menstrual cycle and emotions through the use of advanced game design technology, CGI visuals, and a fluid, gesture-controlled interface. Our mission is to combat the mental health crisis affecting women, a crisis exacerbated by unhealthy social media usage, lack of menstrual literacy, and persistent period stigma. Our app provides a safe, healthy, and non-exploitative platform tailored to the needs of people.

Campaign Lead: The Million Moon project

Campaign Lead – Howami  brings you "The One Million Moon" project

Volunteer Role · Global · Flexible Hours, to be discussed, starting ASAP in 2026!

Are you someone who: 
Believes young people deserve better?
Wants to challenge outdated systems that have failed to prioritise menstrual wellbeing?
Feels called to build something bold, compassionate, and culturally transformative?
Thrives at the intersection of creativity, activism, and social impact?
Cares deeply about young people, emotions, cycles, and the hidden work of growing up?
Wants to make real change — not just talk about it?

If yes, you might be the movement-builder we’re looking for.

Why this The Million Moon Campaign Exists
We’re bringing a groundbreaking global project to life in 2026 - a project that will shift how the world understands menstrual wellbeing and youth emotional literacy.

But we are not building it through the usual routes:
No venture capital.
No extractive profit-first models.
No gatekeepers shaping the direction of the work.

Instead, we are choosing to:
Place power in the hands of the community we serve - young menstruators, families, educators, allies.

Challenge the structures that have historically underfunded, misunderstood, or minimised menstrual health.

Prioritise care, safety, inclusivity, cultural sensitivity, and emotional wellbeing over growth-for-growth’s-sake.

Build a model of ethical resourcing that is transparent, human-centred, and participatory.

Create a movement first, and a product second.

This volunteer role is for someone who wants to help shape a new way of doing social impact work, one that honors lived experience, builds global community, and bypasses the systems that haven’t served us.

The full details of the project will be shared with the successful volunteer, but for now, what you need to know is this:

You will be helping us launch a global campaign unlike anything else in menstrual wellbeing.
A campaign rooted in art, story, community, and change.

Your Role: Campaign Lead (Movement Builder)
As Campaign Lead, you will work closely with Howami’s co-founder Nikki Berridge to bring this campaign into the world. Because the founder is narcoleptic with limited working capacity, you will be the operational heart of the project, the person who turns big vision into clear, coordinated action.

What You’ll Gain
A front-row seat to building a global menstrual wellbeing movement
Experience leading a culturally significant, multi-layered campaign
Opportunities to work with artists, educators, youth advocates, and storytellers
Mentorship and collaboration with Howami’s founder
A chance to shape a project that could shift culture for generations
A meaningful role that genuinely changes lives

You will:
Help consolidate and organise all existing ideas, research, and creative development.
Hold and organise the project workflow.
Help create decks, briefs, and communications tailored to different audiences.
Reach out to aligned influencers, partners, schools, brands, and communities
Assist in shaping public-facing messaging and campaign materials
Support Nikki in the design and management of this global awareness campaign
Co-steer the movement with confidence, warmth, and imagination
Bring consistency, clarity, and structure to a creative, values-driven project
The technical knowhow and platforms needed to bring a campaign like this to life.

"All the above would be magnificent- but I also want you to know that you could take on 'part of this Role'. Passion is key so If any of this ignites something in you - reach out and introduce yourself." Nikki Berridge

You don’t need to know menstrual health deeply - ALL genders Welcome! 
You DO need to care, communicate, organise, and be ready to create change.

Ready to help build something the world hasn’t seen before?
Please share a few lines on why this mission speaks to you and what capacity you have in the new year....

Best wishes,
The Howami team

This is a great opportunity for anyone passionate about the creative arts to join the governing body of a school that views the creative arts as an essential part of a rounded education.

Applicants must have a keen interest in the school and be prepared to play an active part in the governing body’s work to help improve outcomes for students. Successful candidates will:

• be a member of the governing body
• join one additional sub-committee (Teaching & Learning; Pay & Personnel; Finance; or Pastoral, Premises, Health & Safety)

• participate in a range of other ad hoc circumstances where governor involvement is necessary (e.g. periodic meetings with students, staff and parents that usually take place during the day).

Time Commitment

Governors usually spend ~20 hours per term on core governing duties. Successful candidates would be expected to attend up to 4 governing body/committee meetings a term, which usually take place on a Thursday (late afternoon/early evening). They would also need to allow time to read papers and prepare for meetings. The link governor role involves spending one morning or afternoon in school during the year, meeting with the faculty lead and visiting classrooms. 

In addition, we are particularly looking for the successful candidate to be able to spend a further 8 – 10 hours per term on ad hoc matters requiring more 'hands on' governor involvement, including meetings with students, staff and parents which usually take place during the school day. 

Skills and Background

With the recent launch of the Performing Arts Centre at the school, we are particularly interested in individuals with significant experience in the creative arts at this time.

We encourage applications from all members of society, regardless of background, gender, ethnicity, disability, or age.

Being a Foundation Governor

Governors come from a wide range of backgrounds and professions and include some appointed by the staff of the school, parents and the Islington Local Authority.  A majority of the governors are appointed by the Central Foundation Schools of London. As an Educational Charity we support two schools in inner London, the Boys' School and also the Central Foundation Girls' School in Tower Hamlets. This appointment will be a joint appointment by the Foundation and the boys' school governing body.

Training on the of role of governor will be provided for the successful candidates.

A Central Foundation education involves providing students with a wide range of educational experiences not available to many state schools or students from the communities and backgrounds we serve.

As well as an outstanding academic offer, the support of the Central Foundation and its funding partners enables an extensive sporting, performing arts, careers, activities and wider programme to be offered. As a Foundation Governor, you will ensure that through this provision students develop the knowledge, skills and attributes they need to lead successful lives and develop their own unique talents and confidence to forge their individual paths in life.

Underpinning a Central Foundation education is a rigour and a drive for excellence.  We are proud of our students’ examination results. In the last few years these results have consistently shown Central Foundation Boys' School to be one of the leading educators of boys in the country.   

Central Foundation Boys' School aim is that every single student can achieve outstanding outcomes in their education, both in terms of qualifications and the development of the skills, attributes, knowledge and understanding necessary to thrive in a rapidly changing world. It is these outcomes that will transform their futures and your role as a Foundation Governor will oversee and ensure the character of the school is preserved and developed.

Please apply through Reach in the first instance. 

In your application we would really like to hear why you are interested in joining the Central Foundation Boys School Governing Body and what you think you would bring so please send your CV with a short covering statement.

Interviews will take place in January 2026, initially with the Chair of Governors, Simon Dodds. An appointment confirmation meeting with the Chair of the Foundation Board of Trustees and the opportunity to visit the school. 

New governors will be invited to join the Governing Body at their spring term meeting in February/March 2026.

Chair

Voluntary Position with Reasonable Expenses

Aberdeen (within 50-mile radius)
 

About The Archie Foundation
The Archie Foundation operates across the North of Scotland with a mission to transform experiences and outcomes in healthcare and bereavement for local babies, children and their families. Working in partnership with the NHS, the education and social work sectors and with other charities and community organisations, The Archie Foundation supports vital care, comfort, research and family‑centred services aimed at alleviating the stress of illness and enhancing wellbeing at challenging times.

The charity’s work is underpinned by a commitment to dignity, compassion, inclusion and excellence — supporting staff, volunteers, and trustees to deliver high-quality care and meaningful impact at every level.

The Archie Foundation is seeking an ambitious, strategic, and business-minded Chair to lead its Board of Trustees and drive the organisation forward. This is a unique opportunity for an experienced leader who understands that, while Archie is a charity, it operates like a high-performing business.

About the Role of Chair
The Chair provides leadership and direction to the Board of Trustees, ensuring the charity fulfils its strategic, governance, and financial responsibilities. The role is more than chairing meetings: you will be hands-on, actively engaging with the Chief Executive, the Board, and stakeholders to shape and deliver the organisation’s vision.

You will bring the ability to inspire, motivate, and align the Board and senior leadership team, combining a strategic mindset with practical commercial acumen and a critical eye. This ensures clarity, rigour, and focus in decision-making, delivering real impact for the communities Archie serves.

The Chair will attend Board and Finance & Governance meetings, participate in strategy reviews, and engage with stakeholders, funders, and key partners. You will also work closely with the Chief Executive and senior staff, providing guidance, oversight, and active support across the charity’s operations.

About You 
This opportunity is for a strategic and business-minded leader with strong commercial acumen or experience as a high-performing charity CEO. A solid understanding of financial management, budgeting, and reporting, combined with a critical eye, ensures the organisation remains financially sound and strategically focused.

An inspiring presence, the Chair motivates and aligns the Board, senior leadership, and stakeholders behind a shared vision, while actively engaging beyond formal board meetings. Experience of working with complex organisations—ideally including the public or health sector—enables effective navigation of partnerships with professionalism and confidence. Excellent communication and interpersonal skills allow for constructive challenge, guidance in decision-making, and support in ensuring the charity achieves its ambitions while staying true to its values.

This is an excellent opportunity for a leader who values strategic leadership, collaboration, and making a lasting difference in the lives of children, babies, and families across Scotland. It is preferred that candidates are located within a 50-mile radius of the main charity offices at Royal Aberdeen Children’s Hospital.

As Wembley Stadium Foundation enters a period of renewed clarity and ambition, it seeks exceptional trustees to bring structure and steer strategic discipline to an organisation with enormous potential.

Location: Hybrid / Wembley Stadium

Applications close: 9 a.m. Friday 27th February 2026

About Wembley Stadium Foundation

Wembley Stadium Foundation is entering an exciting new chapter. As the independent charity of Wembley Stadium, we use the power of one of the world’s most iconic venues to inspire, connect and transform communities.

Funded directly through stadium event income, we invest in sport, movement and performing arts, helping young people overcome barriers and unlocking opportunities that last a lifetime.

Whether supporting grassroots football, funding performing arts programmes, or providing equipment and access for young people with disabilities, our grants create opportunities that last.

We are committed to collaboration, working closely with local partners, national organisations and grantees to amplify impact sustainably. With a refreshed strategy to 2028, a growing profile and a new CEO appointed in 2024, we are entering a period of renewed clarity and ambition.

Our aim is to ensure the magic of Wembley reaches far beyond the stadium walls, touching communities across Brent and throughout the UK.

About the roles

Following a period of cultural reset and strengthened governance, we are now seeking exceptional trustees to help shape the Foundation’s future. This is a rare opportunity to bring strategic leadership, governance experience and sector insight to an organisation with national reach, financial stability and the growing ambition to maximise its impact ahead of Euro 2028.

Who we are looking for

We are seeking four new trustees who combine governance maturity with a strong connection to our mission. You do not need to have served as a trustee before, but you must bring senior leadership experience, sound judgment and the ability to support an evolving board as it moves into a more confident, professional and high-performing phase.

We particularly welcome individuals with experience in:

• Governance and strategic leadership
• Sport governance and football
• Arts, culture and performing arts
• HR, marketing, communications
• Senior operational, commercial, or organisational leadership

We are also looking for trustees who can bring board-level behaviours: constructive challenge, collaborative mindset, calm leadership through change and the ability to focus discussions on strategy, risk and impact.

You will be mission-focused and comfortable operating in a charity undergoing governance strengthening, cultural renewal and increased visibility. You’ll understand that while Wembley is an iconic and exciting brand, trusteeship is not about perks; it is about responsibility, scrutiny and ensuring funds reach the right communities for the greatest impact.

Our board is diverse and welcoming, but it requires greater depth of senior experience. We encourage applications from individuals who can model strong governance, champion inclusive practice and help build a board that is effective, future-focused and ready to shape the next era of Wembley Stadium Foundation’s impact.

Peridot Partners and Wembley Stadium Foundation are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people, and our client expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. The successful candidate will be subject to an enhanced DBS check and satisfactory references before any final offer can be made.

Applications for this role close at 9 a.m. Friday 27th February 2026.
