Build a Community of Connection with SUNSHINE

Loneliness is a quiet crisis. It doesn’t shout—it whispers. It hides behind closed doors, in empty chairs, in the silence of a phone that never rings. In London, thousands of people are facing this reality every day, and the emotional toll is devastating—impacting mental health, physical wellbeing, and the very fabric of our communities.

SUNSHINE is a brand new, 100% volunteer-run grassroots charity on a mission to change that. We’re creating spaces where people feel seen, heard, and valued. But to do that, we need a vibrant, empowered volunteer community—and that’s where you come in.

Why This Role Matters

Volunteers are the lifeblood of SUNSHINE. They’re the ones who bring warmth to coffee mornings, compassion to befriending calls, and energy to community events. As our Volunteering Development Manager, you’ll be the architect of this community. You’ll design systems, nurture relationships, and create a culture where every volunteer feels proud, supported, and inspired, feeling the SUNSHINE Experience deep within them that bonds us all as family.

This is more than recruitment—it’s about building belonging.

What You’ll Do

• Develop inclusive, emotionally resonant volunteer pathways.

• Create role descriptions and onboarding processes that reflect SUNSHINE’s values.

• Foster a culture of appreciation, growth, and connection among volunteers.

• Collaborate with programme leads to match volunteers to meaningful roles.

• Help shape the long-term strategy for volunteer engagement and retention.

What You’ll Bring

• Experience in volunteer management, HR, or community development (professional or volunteer).

• A deep belief in the power of people to create change.

• Emotional intelligence, adaptability, and a collaborative spirit.

• A passion for building inclusive, values-driven spaces.

What You’ll Gain

• The chance to build a volunteer community that transforms lives.

• A role at the heart of a charity that’s rewriting the story of loneliness.

• A team of visionary changemakers who value your voice and leadership.

• Purpose, legacy, and the joy of watching connection bloom.

Let’s build a volunteer community that radiates warmth. Let’s be the sunshine.

The silence surrounding men's struggles is a crisis that breaks hearts and costs lives.

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.

UKuhamba

Ukuhamba produces lightweight, custom-made, and affordable prosthetics using 3D printing technology to improve the lives of amputees living with disabilities, restoring their independence and dignity.

Ukuhamba aims to address several social and environmental challenges such as:

• Limited access to prosthetic devices: Many individuals in Africa, particularly in rural areas, lack access to prosthetic devices due to high costs, limited infrastructure, and a shortage of trained personnel.
• Social stigma associated with disability: People with disabilities, especially amputees, often face social exclusion, stigma, and discrimination, which can lead to feelings of isolation, low self-esteem, and depression.
• Economic burden of disability:The lack of access to prosthetic devices can result in significant economic burdens on individuals and communities, limiting their ability to participate in education, employment, and community activities.
• Environmental impact of prosthetic production: Traditional prosthetic production methods can have a significant environmental impact, which Ukuhamba aims to mitigate by using recycled materials, such as plastic water bottles, in their 3D printing process.

Ukuhamba addresses social and environmental challenges in several ways:

• Increasing accessibility to prosthetics: They provide affordable, custom-made prosthetic limbs to individuals with physical disabilities, particularly in South Africa where access to these devices is limited. Currently, only about 30.5% of individuals in need have access to prosthetics.
• Reducing stigma associated with disability: By infusing fashion into their prosthetic designs, Ukuhamba aims to empower users to proudly showcase their prosthetics, challenging societal stigmas surrounding disability.
• Environmental sustainability: Ukuhamba utilizes recycled materials, such as plastic bottles, in their 3D printing process, reducing waste and promoting eco-friendliness.
• Empowering individuals with disabilities: Their prosthetic solutions enable individuals to regain independence, mobility, and dignity, allowing them to participate more fully in daily life activities and contribute to their communities.
• Promoting inclusivity: By providing low-cost prosthetics, Ukuhamba bridges the gap for underprivileged individuals who cannot afford these devices, fostering greater inclusivity and social equality.
