Usanii Village Africa
Through the boundless power of creativity, we inspire young minds to dream, innovate, and become changemakers in their communities. By using art as a platform for awareness and advocacy, we tackle critical issues like environmental sustainability, gender equality and reproductive health.
Limited Access to Art-Based Education & Economic Opportunities – Many young people, especially out-of-school youth and teenage mothers, lack access to creative and vocational training programmes that can equip them with skills for self-reliance and economic independence.
High Rates of Teenage Pregnancies & School Dropouts – Limited knowledge and resources on sexual and reproductive health contribute to early marriages, teenage pregnancies, and high dropout rates among girls and young women, restricting their future opportunities.
Lack of Environmental Awareness & Sustainable Practices – Communities often lack the knowledge and integration of environmental stewardship in education and daily life, leading to unsustainable practices, environmental degradation, and missed opportunities for eco-friendly innovations.
Usanii Village Africa provides creative and vocational training in fields such as Eco-Artistry, carpentry, fashion, and design. By integrating art with practical skills, young people—especially out-of-school youth and teenage mothers—gain the tools needed for self-reliance and economic empowerment.
To combat early marriages, teenage pregnancies, and school dropouts, Usanii Village Africa equips young people, particularly girls and young women, with essential knowledge and resources on menstrual health, reproductive rights, and gender equality. This ensures they make informed choices about their futures.
By embedding environmental conservation in education and community initiatives, Usanii Village Africa fosters a culture of sustainability. Through Eco-Artistry, waste repurposing, and climate action advocacy, the organization promotes eco-friendly practices and raises awareness about the importance of protecting natural resources.

A brand/comms professional with a bit of time to spare

You'll volunteer without regular time commitments, ‘as and when' volunteering! Engage with the public, organisations and local communities – promoting a positive image of the NSPCC! You'll be a valued part of one of our Volunteer Community Fundraising Teams across the UK, raising awareness and funds. We appreciate that work, family and friends come first and, with that in mind, this role offers flexibility to fit in with your lifestyle. You only need to commit to a couple of hours a month, but if you want to do more that would be great.
What you'll get
We'll support you with advice, skills and tools to help you fundraise and spread the word of the NSPCC. You'll learn more about how you're helping to protect children across the UK, and you'll have the opportunity to grow your skills and inspire others to support us. It's also a chance to spend time with like-minded people and make new friends.

Ready to make a meaningful difference through purposeful leadership?
At Sight Concern Bedfordshire, we’re here to make sure people living with sight loss can lead full, independent, and active lives. Rooted in our local communities across Bedfordshire and Luton, we’ve been quietly making a big impact for over 25 years.
We’re now actively looking for a new Chair of Trustees to help shape our next chapter.
This is a special opportunity to bring thoughtful, grounded leadership to a charity with a clear mission and deep community ties. You’ll be stepping in at a pivotal point as we modernise, grow our partnerships, and explore how assistive technologies and accessible services can unlock new possibilities for those we support.
As Chair, you’ll work closely with our CEO as a trusted partner, someone who can offer encouragement, challenge when needed, and help build a culture of inclusion, community, and accountability. You'll ensure our governance remains robust and fit for the future, and that our Board continues to deliver collaboratively, constructively, and always aligned with our values.
You’ll also represent the charity externally to help us grow our network and strengthen local relationships, as well as amplifying our voice when the opportunity arises. You’ll also help us foster an environment where people feel valued, lived experience is in our central scope, and blind and partially sighted individuals remain at the heart of every decision we make.
We’re not just looking for someone to keep the wheels turning, we’re looking for a leader who understands how crucial it is to lead with integrity, empathy, and purpose. Someone who understands that the best kind of change evolves through collaboration, not control.
You don’t need to have been a Chair before, but you should bring experience as a senior leader in a professional setting or have worked closely with a CEO or senior executive. An understanding of charity governance is key, and we’re also looking for someone with flourishing people skills and a genuine commitment to inclusion and accessibility.
If you’ve got previous Trustee experience too, that’s a bonus.
Does this sound like you?
If the answer is yes, and you're ready to help guide our charity through a meaningful and exciting phase of its journey, we’d love to hear from you.
The official Recruitment Pack can be found on the Sight Concern Bedfordshire website.

Wanted: Volunteer Graphic Designer - FLEXIBLE and REMOTE
Help Creative A Visionary Youth Work Charity In London!
Urban Youth isn't just another charity. We're a brand new youth community designed to change young people's lives in London. We're talking about giving them happy memories, creating lasting friendships, and building the essential skills they'll need for adulthood. We want to provide opportunities and experiences they simply won't get anywhere else.
But to do that, we need to be seen, heard, and remembered. We need a visual identity that screams "cool," "modern," and "inspiring"—one that speaks directly to young people aged 11-19 years old in London.
That's where you come in.
We're looking for you to help us create an exciting youthful brand that attracts young people aged 11 to 19 years old in London to be part of this new youth work community. We're looking for a volunteer Graphic Designer who wants to be a founding creative force behind Urban Youth. You won't just design our brand; you'll help define our future.
What You'll Be Creating:
-
Our Signature Logo: A powerful, youthful, and modern mark that will become synonymous with positive change for young people in London.
-
A Complete Brand Guide: You'll help us develop the visual language we'll use across all our platforms—from our website and social media to our promotional materials and merchandise.
-
The Foundation of Our Visual Story: Every graphic, every colour, every font choice you make will help us attract the young people and community partners we need to succeed.
If you would like to help us build a whole brand, we will then move on to the design of;
- Social Media Posts: Promoting Urban Youth, our Projects and activities and encouraging people to volunteer, donate, join us, support us or get involved in other ways.
- Website Branded Images: To help keep our website in our branding design so that we are recognisable.
- Roller Banners/Posters: Promoting Urban Youth, our Projects and activities and encouraging people to volunteer, donate, join us, support us or get involved in other ways.
This is a unique opportunity to build YOUR portfolio with real-world impact. You'll gain experience working with a dynamic start-up, collaborating with passionate founders, and creating a brand that has the power to inspire thousands. Your work will be a key part of our journey from a small start-up to a registered charity that changes lives. We'll also even write a testimony or reference for you as a thank you for your help and support to help us on our journey to success with young people across London.
