About Us

Millimetres 2 Mountains Foundation (M2M) is a charity dedicated to helping individuals rebuild their lives after experiencing physical or emotional trauma. Founded by former professional rugby player Ed Jackson and his wife, Lois, following Ed’s life-changing spinal injury, M2M uses the power of adventure, nature, and community to support people on their journey of recovery. 

At the heart of the charity lies the M2M Development Programme - a bespoke, holistic support system tailored to each beneficiary’s unique recovery journey. Through one-to-one mentorship, a nurturing community, and the transformative power of the outdoors (culminating in life-changing mountain expeditions abroad), M2M empowers individuals to rediscover purpose, rebuild confidence, and move forward with lasting resilience. We take on eight new beneficiaries each year, supporting up to 24 individuals at any one time. Guided by our ‘inch-wide, mile-deep’ philosophy, we focus on depth of impact over scale, ensuring each person receives the tools, encouragement, and care needed to create life-long change. This includes access to grants for physiotherapy, psychotherapy, job retraining, and any other support essential to their growth. Everyone is met exactly where they are, with a personalised plan that reflects their goals, challenges, and potential.

In addition to our core programmes, M2M runs Together Outdoors  - an initiative that harnesses the healing power of nature and connection through community-based mental health walks. Led by trained volunteers and Life Coaches, these walks offer safe, inclusive spaces for honest conversations, emotional support, and personal growth. Whether on a remote peak or a local path, M2M believes in the life-changing potential of movement, shared experience, and the great outdoors.

About Changing Faces

Changing Faces is the UK’s leading charity for everyone who has a mark, scar or condition that makes them look different (a visible difference). Being different in a society where there is such pressure to look a certain way is extremely difficult.

People with visible differences are vulnerable to isolation, loneliness, social anxiety and low self-esteem. They face staring, unwanted attention and even bullying and hate crime. They experience lowered expectations in education, problems getting work and stereotyping in the media. This can have a devastating, and lasting, impact on their wellbeing. Adults often come to us, having never spoken to anyone about the psychological impact of their visible difference before.

We provide unique practical, social and emotional support for people affected by visible difference; we challenge discrimination and campaign for a world that respects difference.

Our services build confidence and resilience – giving people the tools to manage their feelings, cope in different social settings, handle other people’s reactions or deal with life, education, work and relationships.

Closing date: Monday 18th August
Interviews will be held remotely on 29th August and 1st September.

YMCA DLG requires all staff and volunteers to be committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people, and to respond proactively to safeguarding concerns. Successful applicants are required to undertake an Enhanced DBS (including the Children’s and Adults’ barred lists) check, along with a reference and background check carried out by a third-party service provider. 

We’re looking for a motivated and relationship-driven Project Coordinator (Growth & Engagement) based across Greater Manchester to help us build and sustain impactful partnerships that will grow the reach and visibility of our Dog Champion Scheme.

At Street Paws, we believe that no one should be forced to choose between a safe place to stay and the pet they love. For people experiencing homelessness, a pet can be a vital lifeline — providing emotional support, a sense of safety, and unconditional companionship in the most difficult circumstances.

Sadly, most accommodation services do not allow pets, leaving people with an impossible decision: stay with their pet and remain homeless, or enter housing alone. At Street Paws, we work to remove that barrier through compassionate, practical action.

We support homeless pet owners by:

• Providing free veterinary care and preventative treatment

• Offering essentials like leads, coats, food, and bedding

• Training hostels to become pet-friendly through our Dog Champion Scheme

• Advocating for inclusive housing and service access

Since launching our Dog Champion Scheme, we’ve trained hundreds of hostel staff, supported dozens of services to welcome pets, and helped keep hundreds of people and animals safely together.

About the Role

This role is perfect for someone who is passionate about social justice, inclusion, and the human–animal bond — and who is confident in building connections with frontline organisations, community services, and supporters.

As Project Coordinator (Growth & Engagement), you’ll focus on building relationships with new hostels, expanding awareness of our work, and promoting our training programme and online learning platform. You'll also work with existing partners to make sure they feel supported and are continuing to deliver on their commitments to pet-friendly care.

Key Responsibilities

• Promote and grow the Dog Champion Scheme by identifying and engaging new partner hostels

• Build and maintain strong relationships with hostel staff, local authorities, housing providers, and referral networks

• Introduce and guide partners through the onboarding and training process

• Deliver clear, engaging communication about the benefits and expectations of becoming a pet-friendly service

• Support the delivery and monitoring of online training through our learning platform

• Collect feedback and stories from the hostels we work with to showcase impact and promote the scheme

• Represent Street Paws at local events, forums, and outreach opportunities across the North of England

• Work closely with the wider team to align delivery with Street Paws’ core values and strategic goals

• Support other areas of our work where needed, including volunteer engagement and public awareness campaigns

About You

We’re looking for someone who is:

• A great communicator – confident talking to frontline services, potential partners, and wider community networks

• Skilled at building trust and relationships with people from all backgrounds

• Organised and proactive – able to manage your own workload, travel when needed, and meet project goals

• Creative and people-focused, with an eye for spotting opportunities to grow and share our impact

• Committed to inclusion and compassionate support – you’ll be representing a charity that’s non-judgemental, trauma-informed, and rooted in dignity for all

Experience working in the charity, housing, or community sector is a plus, but not essential. What matters most is that you believe in our mission and want to be part of positive, person-centred change.

What We Offer

• A flexible, remote-working role with the opportunity to travel and meet partners across the region

• A supportive, values-led team environment

• Opportunities to grow with us, shape the role, and influence how we engage new partners

• The chance to make a tangible difference for people and pets who are often excluded from services

Applications close Friday 29th August.   Interviews will be held week commencing 8th September 2025
