Help shape a platform designed to catch workforce burnout before it happens — no design experience needed, just your honest opinions and one hour a month.
Do Me A Favour Buddy (DMAFB) is a preventative workforce health platform. We use validated psychological science to help managers spot early signs of declining work energy, low psychological safety, and unmet needs in their teams — and act before people reach crisis point. We are UK and Swiss registered, working alongside researchers at King's College London, UCL, Brunel, and the University of Sussex, and currently piloting with NHS and enterprise teams.
What you'd do
As a member of our feedback panel, you'll take part in short, structured design tests — for example, viewing a page for five seconds and telling us what you think the company does, choosing between two design directions, or showing us where you'd click first. Occasionally we'll invite you to a relaxed 30-minute video call to walk through the platform and tell us what's confusing, what's compelling, and what's missing. You can do as much or as little as suits you; every activity is optional.
Who we're looking for
Anyone with experience of workplaces — employees, team leaders, HR professionals, healthcare staff, people who've experienced workplace stress. We want a genuinely representative panel across ages, sectors, and levels of tech confidence. If you've never done anything like this before, that makes your perspective more valuable, not less.
What you'll get
A real hand in shaping a product built to protect working people, early access to the platform as it develops, a view into how behavioural science and design come together, and our genuine gratitude. We'll happily provide a reference or LinkedIn recommendation for regular panellists.
Commitment: around 1–2 hours per month, fully remote, flexible around your life. To join, apply with a couple of lines about your work background and why this interests you.
Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis. If selected, you'll receive a short welcome email within two weeks with your first five-minute activity — there's no interview, no obligation, and you can step back at any time.
The client requests no contact from agencies or media sales.

We welcome applications from people from all walks of life, including those who may have personal or professional experience of mental health. While lived experience can bring valuable perspective, it is not a requirement for volunteering with us. Our focus is on providing volunteers with the training, guidance and supervision they need to feel confident in their roles and to develop their skills.

Above all, we value the contribution volunteers make to our community and are committed to recognising their achievements.

Training in Food Handling.
Training for any other skills as identified by yourself and your supervisor.
Regular check-in with your supervisor, reflective supervision, and managerial support.
An opportunity to learn new skills and develop existing ones while being a part of a supportive team at Mind in Kingston.

Adherence to Mind in Kingston’s policies (e.g., confidentiality, safeguarding).
Proactive engagement with your supervisor for support.
Application Process:
Two recent references are required.
An enhanced DBS check is necessary.
We ask volunteers for two references, one of which must come from someone who has supervised you recently in your work or studies, such as a current or previous employer or a tutor. You will also need to undergo an enhanced DBS (Disclosure and Barring Service) check, as you will be working with vulnerable adults.

We have an elderly client in Luton, LU1 who would like someone to visit her at home once a week, or perhaps fortnighly with a phone call in between visits. She moved to Luton from Scotland many years ago and spends most of her days alone at home which understandably gets her down. She has a supportive daughter who works full time and a friend who drops by when she can.
As her befriender, you will provide companionship: friendly conversation and a non-judgemental listen ear, to help make her day a little brighter. Your gift of time, and your companionship will help to break the monotomy of sitting alone at home and will give her something to look forward to. Meetings will be in her flat, or in the communal garden when the weather allows.
You need to be reliable, friendly and caring,English speaking and a good listener for easy conversations. You should also be able to commit to befriending for at least 6 months. Its worth noting that most of our volunteers stay involved for longer, only because they enjoy what they do.
Befriending is a very easy way to help someone who is struggling and can be very rewarding, in fact you might both look forward to your meetings . It can also provide a great opportunity to gain practical experience of working with older adults in the community for anyone who is considering social or care work as a career.
We provide training before you start and ongoing support once you are matched, we also reimburse expenses for travel and refreshments. Two references are required and an enhanced DBS check will be processed.
If you live in or around Luton and have one or two hours to spare on a regular basis, please get in touch.
