The silence surrounding men's struggles is a crisis that breaks hearts and costs lives. Sadly, suicide remains the biggest killer of men under 50 in the UK. Behind every statistic is a man, a son, a father, a friend, battling alone. MINDSET is here to change that. We're a brand new start-up charity, forging a brotherhood to inform, guide, and support men, empowering their mental well-being and self-improvement through vital services, events, and a powerful community.

This is your chance to be at the very beginning of something extraordinary. We're not just looking for volunteers; we're seeking pioneers with a burning desire to create a lasting impact. We need your heart, your skills, and your unwavering belief to help us get set up and launched, providing much-needed services to men in need across the UK.

This pivotal Volunteer Graphic Designer role is for someone who understands that design is more than aesthetics; it's communication that cuts through the noise. You will be instrumental in crafting our visual voice, creating materials that not only look incredible but also carry the weight of our mission, touching hearts and opening minds.

Imagine the profound impact: Your designs will be the visual handshake for men seeking support, the engaging invitation for potential volunteers, and the professional face that attracts vital partnerships. Every leaflet, social media post, and website graphic you create will directly contribute to building awareness, fostering connection, and ensuring Mindset's message reaches those who need it most.

Key Responsibilities:

• Brand Identity Development & Application: Work with the team to refine and consistently apply Mindset's visual brand guidelines across all platforms and materials.

• Marketing & Campaign Graphics: Design impactful visuals for social media posts, online campaigns, digital adverts, and promotional banners that tell our story and encourage engagement.

• Website & Digital Assets: Create compelling graphics, icons, and layouts for our website, ensuring it is visually appealing, user-friendly, and reflective of our brand.

• Print Materials: Design brochures, leaflets, posters, and other print collateral for events, outreach, and fundraising activities.

• Workshop & Resource Design: Develop clear, engaging, and professional layouts for workshop materials, guides, and self-help resources.

• Event & Fundraising Collateral: Create visuals for event signage, fundraising appeals, and partnership presentations.

• Visual Storytelling: Translate complex messages about mental health and self-improvement into accessible, empathetic, and inspiring visual narratives.

Are you ready to be a part of this incredible journey? We are building a charity, and we need your help and support.

Who We’re Looking For

You’re someone who:

• Has experience in project management, operations, or charity start-up environments.

• Is passionate about youth work and social impact.

• Can work independently and collaboratively in a remote setting.

• Brings energy, empathy, and strategic thinking to everything you do.

Why Join Us?

This isn’t just a volunteer role—it’s a chance to shape something powerful from the ground up. You’ll be part of a community that turns isolation into connection, worry into hope, and potential into reality.

Help us build a space where young people can discover who they are—and who they’re meant to become.
