Background

Founded in 2003 and originally named Andrea’s Gift and later Brain Tumour Research and Support

Across Yorkshire, Yorkshire’s Brain Tumour Charity (YBTC) is Yorkshire and Humber’s leading

brain tumour charity. Offering practical, financial and emotional support to both adult and child

brain tumour patients, together with their families.

We fund brain tumour research in Yorkshire; we hope this research, dedicated to identifying new

approaches to the discovery and treatment of brain tumours will improve outcomes for patients.

At YBTC we are a small team who are growing to meet the needs of those affected by a brain

tumour in Yorkshire. Around 15 new cases of primary brain tumours are diagnosed in the region

every week.

Our charity values are: Integrity, Compassion, Community & Ambition.

Our Vision/Mission

To improve the lives of people impacted by a brain tumour in Yorkshire through local support and research.

We urgently need volunteers who can provide a friendly face, shop for and deliver groceries to our clients.

The Age Connects shopping service is an invaluable lifeline to so many older, vulnerable members of our local communities, particularly those with no family or friends to offer shopping support. We know that older people can become frail, and those who have mobility problems, who no longer drive or don’t have access to the internet, may find it difficult to do their weekly shop.

As a shopper you will be providing a shop and deliver service for the client either on a weekly or fortnightly basis. You will collect their shopping list, carry out the shopping and deliver it back to them. It could be that you’re the only person they see or speak to that day or even that week and it can be an opportunity to have a chat with the client, provide them with information about other services they may need or to offer practical help.

This is a fee paying service, the client will pay £5 per shop to the charity. If you are a friendly, reliable and trustworthy, you can help. You need to be aged 18+, and to be able to make a commitment for a minimum of 6 months: we will also require two character references, and will carry out a DBS check before you can start. It is best if you have access to your own transport, as some clients do not live centrally, or require large shops.

Do you have a great idea to benefit people living with MS? At the MS Society, we campaign on a range of issues like welfare, treatments, care and support that people with MS need. We want to do more locally and want to support your ideas on making change happen. Together we can do more.

Perhaps you’ve spotted there are no blue badge spaces at your local supermarket? Or maybe your neighbourhood has no kerbs easy for wheelchairs to use? In this volunteer role, you’ll help drive change for people with MS in your community and develop your networking and influencing skills along the way.

As a campaigner you’ll bring your own ideas, local knowledge and personal experience to your campaigns. You’ll make decisions about your own campaign activities and collaborate with other campaigners in your area.

This role is flexible and aims to fit around you. Time commitments for this role may vary depending on your activities and the campaigning you’d like to do. This is an ongoing role.

�� Calling Social Impact Influencers – Help Us Change How The UK Gives ��

We’re building something different.

Unify Giving allows donors to directly support individuals experiencing homelessness, domestic violence, and financial crisis — with full transparency, dignity, and trust. 100% of donations go straight to the person in need.

But to reach more people, we need voices. Real voices.

That’s why we’re building our Social Impact Influencer Squad — a network of mission-driven creators and storytellers who want to use their platforms to help us grow, reach new donors, and expand our recipient base across the UK.

✅ Who we’re looking for:

• Individuals with 5k+ engaged followers (Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, YouTube etc.)

• Passionate about social impact, homelessness, domestic violence support, or financial inclusion

• Want to use your voice to help real people — directly

✅ What you’ll do:

• Help share our mission with your community

• Highlight stories of individuals we support (all fully anonymised and approved)

• Be part of a new model for giving — one that puts dignity and transparency first

✅ Why it matters:

Every share helps us expand, onboard more charity partners, and reach individuals who urgently need support. This isn’t just charity — it’s a whole new infrastructure for giving.

If this sounds like you, we’d love to chat ��

What is the Talking Bubble Project?

✔ Enjoy flexible volunteering hours from the comfort of your home
