Social Friday
Social Friday reinvents the end of the workweek by transforming unproductive Friday hours into a global tradition of purpose, teamwork, and impact—connecting businesses, nonprofits, and communities through hands-on engagement.
Fridays are the least productive time of the week. Work slows down, focus fades, and hours are lost. The numbers are staggering:
- Unproductive Friday hours cost the U.S. economy $1.9 trillion annually.
- 1 in 4 people worldwide feel lonely, struggling to reach their full potential.
- The U.S. Surgeon General calls loneliness an epidemic, costing employers $154 billion yearly.
- Remote and hybrid work has widened the gap, leaving employees more disconnected than ever.
- Societal tensions are rising, creating an urgent need for initiatives that bring people together.
Governments debate the four-day workweek—but what if, instead of subtracting a day from work, we added purpose to Fridays?
We face a choice: -Accept the status quo and keep losing trillions. +Or flip the script, turning Fridays into a force for good.
Social Friday isn’t just a project—it’s a movement. A global tradition in the making that transforms the least productive hours of the week into moments of connection, impact, and purpose, where doing good becomes a habit.
Beyond one-time events, Social Friday is designed to scale into a lasting global movement, embedding social impact into work culture and everyday life.
How It Works
A scalable platform connects businesses, NGOs, and volunteers, transforming Fridays into a global force for change through engagement, collaboration, and gamification.
By integrating leaderboards, challenges, badges, and rewards, Social Friday keeps participation exciting and fosters a culture where social impact becomes part of the routine.
This isn’t just about reducing disengagement. It is about transforming the way society, nonprofits, and businesses connect, creating a future where social impact is a shared responsibility, embedded into everyday life. Social Friday has the power to turn the least productive time of the week into the most meaningful, a global tradition, the Olympics of Giving Back.

Yoga Stops Traffick is an international campaign to raise awareness of and funds for survivors of human trafficking in India. We are seeking 2 volunteers to help us improve and evolve this campaign.
What will you be doing?
Yoga Stops Traffick is an international campaign run by UK registered charity Adventure Ashram to raise awareness of and funds for survivors of human trafficking in India. Every year thousands of yoga practitioners from all corners of the globe roll out their mats, from the UK to Iceland to Costa Rica, to stand in solidarity with young survivors. The funds raised from Yoga Stops Traffick help rescue and rehabilitate survivors of human trafficking, sexual and domestic violence, modern-day slavery, and child marriage.
We are seeking 2 volunteers to improve the Yoga Stops Traffick campaign. We've been running this campaign for many years now but sadly despite the campaign's great potential, it has been less and less successful each year. We need some creative marketing and social media experts to help lift this campaign back to its full potential.
Main responsibilities of the role:
• Bring your creative social media and marketing ideas to the team to help us think of new ways to increase awareness of Yoga Stops Traffick to yoga studios and teachers in the UK and worldwide, and help us develop plans to turn these ideas into well-executed action.
• Use your corporate partnerships experience to advise us on the best ways to develop new corporate partnerships - help us identify the best potential partners for the campaign and develop plans for approaching them and developing those relationships.
• Help us plan our social media activity to increase our reach, improve our engagement levels and ultimately drive the success of this campaign.
• If you are experienced using Wordpress and skilled at improving SEO that would be an added bonus - our website has terrible SEO and ranks badly and we no longer have the skills in-house to know the best way to improve our website. However, if this is not part of your skill-set but you can improve our general marketing and social media plans - we would still be grateful for your help!
• Provide other administrative support as needed (this could include website updates, creating marketing materials, sending campaign emails, responding to campaign-related enquiries)
What we offer in return:
• A supportive team to work alongside
• The knowledge you are making a real difference to a small charity that is struggling in the current climate
• Invitation to Adventure Ashram / Yoga Stops Traffick events
Requirements of role:
• Ideally a commitment of approx. 6-12 hours per week
• Equipment you need: Laptop/PC, Internet Access
What are we looking for?
We are looking for creative social media and marketing experts whose ideas and experience will take this campaign to the next level.
Experience in running social media campaigns and creating engaging content is essential for this role.
Excellent written communications is essential for this role.
Experience using WordPress and knowledge of SEO would be very useful - though not vital.
Experience building and developing corporate partnerships for fundraising purposes would be very helpful.
More than anything, we are looking for people who are passionate about making a difference! We would like you to commit to the role until the end of April 2026, with the possibility to extend beyond this.
1 year, 21 hours per week traineeship - Voluntary
Are you looking to pursue a career in UK wildlife conservation?
This role is intended to provide experience and skills necessary to pursue a career in UK wildlife conservation and habitat management. To date all former Evidence trainees have gained paid jobs in the sector following the end of the traineeship.
Ecological Evidence Trainees are be based in our Evidence and Connected Landscapes Team. There is a maximum of Evidence 2 trainees at any one time.
As the Nature sector moves to an evidence-based approach it is the Evidence team that collect, analyse and report on the wildlife, environmental and ecological data used for GWT and some local government decision making. Data is collected and analysed by a friendly team of staff, trainees and Citizen Science volunteers.
This is 12-month voluntary traineeship with 21 hours per week schedule with some flexibility.
Although based in Gloucester, this role involves travelling to nature reserves across Gloucestershire, so independent transport is essential March – October.
It is the nature of the work that there may be the occasional option to attend evening and weekend events. However, this is not a requirement of the role. You are not obligated to work beyond your standard hours. However, should you wish to participate in evening or weekend events, you are welcome to do so.
Our head office facilities are at Robinswood Hill Country Park in Gloucester. Trainees survey nature reserves across Gloucestershire during spring and summer.
It is the nature of the work of Gloucestershire Wildlife Trust that tasks and responsibilities are, in many circumstances unpredictable and varied.
We aim to be an equal opportunity employer and are determined to ensure that no applicant or employee receives less favourable treatment.
Being a charity we hope all recruitment agencies will appreciate that we want to save money where possible - so thank you, but unless we get in touch, we don't need you help with this role quite yet.
The client requests no contact from agencies or media sales.
