Womankind is looking for compassionate women to become Befriending Volunteers and help transform lives.

This role offers an opportunity to make a meaningful difference in the lives of individuals who have experienced sexual violence and/or domestic abuse. This position is ideal for individuals looking to gain experience in counselling/ support roles or uplift and empower women through voluntary work.

As a volunteer, you’ll commit to around 1 or 2 hours per week, meeting your Befriendee either in their home or a community setting (or via phone or zoom if you choose the remote option).

We offer two opportunities:

• In-person befriending in Bristol and South Gloucestershire (12 Months)
• Telephone befriending supporting women across the UK (6 Months)

Responsibility
- Help create a safe, trauma-informed relationship that improves mental well-being and reduces isolation.
- Provide empathetic and listening support to women who have experienced violence and abuse.
- Uphold confidentiality and safeguarding policies at all times.

We’re looking for women who want to make a real difference, can listen without judgment and believe in building warm, supportive connections. You'll need to have:
- A genuine interest in supporting women who have experienced abuse or violence.
- A willingness to learn and develop your skills in training.
- Excellent communication skills and the ability to engage empathetically with vulnerable people.
- Fluency in English (both written and spoken)
- Basic IT skills for record keeping and organisational tasks
- Be reliable, responsible, and committed to volunteering hours as agreed

If this sounds like you, we’d love to hear from you! We welcome women from all backgrounds who are eager to make a difference.

Could you be a Cry-sis Helpline Listener?

Do you know, or could you imagine what it’s like to have a baby who just won’t stop crying?

An exhausting, overwhelming feeling - and the desperate wish that someone who *gets it* would pick up the phone?

That’s exactly what our Helpline Listeners provide. And if you’ve been there yourself or could imagine how exhausted a parent feels, you might be just the person a struggling parent needs to hear from.

What you’ll be doing

Taking calls from parents and carers at the end of their tether, offering a kind ear, non-judgemental support, and safe, practical guidance - all from the comfort of your own home, in your own time.

We’re looking for people who

• Are warm, empathetic listeners who can help someone feel heard.
• Can volunteer their time, at times that suit their schedule.
• Are committed to supporting families without judgement.

Maybe you have direct experience of a baby that just won’t stop crying, maybe you have seen how it impacted someone close to you. 

Above all we need you to care, to be understanding, and to be patient. 

What you’ll get from us

• Training using our comprehensive online training, with phone-based role play sessions to assess how you’re getting on.
• An experienced buddy when you first join.
• Ongoing support so you never feel alone in the role.
• A free to use, online or telephone based call system which keeps you and callers safe. 
• A group of trustees who are keen to hear and act on any suggestions to improve the charity. 
• The knowledge that your experience is genuinely helping other families through one of the hardest times of their lives.

Ready to turn your experience into something powerful?

We’d love to hear from you.

Executive Director

The Longest Yarn

Flexible

Initially Voluntary Basis with Expenses Covered to be based in the U.K. 

About The Longest Yarn

The Longest Yarn is an internationally recognised knitted and crocheted exhibition project preserving wartime stories through immersive textile art, historical interpretation and community participation. Registered as an Association in France since 2023 with CIO pending in U.K. 

Having toured extensively across the United Kingdom, Ireland and the United States, The Longest Yarn now consists of two major exhibitions.

One exhibition, The Longest Yarn: Britain at War, is based in the United Kingdom and is already booked to tour major cathedrals and other significant venues through to 2028.

The original D-Day exhibition now has its permanent home in Normandy near the landing beaches, where it is exhibited for approximately six months of the year, with the flexibility to tour across the UK or Europe during the winter months.

Together, the exhibitions continue to grow as a major international remembrance and heritage initiative.

Founded as a simple project combining creativity, education, remembrance, community involvement and support for veteran causes through large-scale public exhibitions and events, The Longest Yarn rapidly exceeded all expectations, attracting more than 500,000 visitors within just 23 months.

We are currently working with several veteran charities, including one major initiative helping to provide a home for a homeless veteran living with PTSD. Developing and expanding our support for veteran causes remains an important part of the future vision for The Longest Yarn.

The Role

Could You Help the Founder Build The Next Chapter?

Over 500,000 people have now visited .

What started as a slightly bonkers knitted D-Day idea has grown into:

• a permanent Normandy exhibition
• a second UK touring exhibition
• veteran partnerships
• media attention worldwide
• and more opportunities than one person can realistically manage alone.

We are beginning the search for somebody to help build this properly for the future.

This may suit somebody from:

• military or veteran backgrounds
• tourism or events
• heritage or museums
• operations or logistics
• volunteer coordination
• charity or project management

Most importantly — you need to believe in people, possibility, and what this project represents.

Initially this is about finding the right person and exploring what the role could become over time.

The Executive Director will report directly to:

• Founder & Creative Director
• The Board of Trustees

Job Type: Volunteer

We are looking for someone keen to move into the area of advising small charities on management and governance issues.

We are a very ambitious local grant-making charity that also offers various training, support and consultancy services to small charities and community groups in West London. Our broad-ranging plans are now beginning to bear fruit and so we need volunteers to help us in the following areas as demand for our services continues to grow:

· Supporting small groups and start-ups with basic governance and management issues

· Assessing the impact of our services on groups

· Outreach to new groups

· Possibly helping out with grant application assessments when needed

Our ideal candidate would have a good all-round background in management, consultancy or organisational professional services gained over a number of years, but they need not be experienced in the areas mentioned above. You'd be given full training, with the opportunity to shadow the people already working in these areas. Far more important is adaptability, initiative, an ability to get on well with people from all sorts of backgrounds, and good organisational and writing skills. Most crucially you would have a demonstrable commitment to our ideals of promoting a strong and influential civil society in West London. You will thrive on challenges and find rewards in seeing our objectives achieved.

You would ideally be able to commit an average of 1 day a week and the work would involve dealing with our groups during office hours, so you will probably be someone who is working part-time, or is perhaps retired or semi-retired, or is otherwise not in full-time employment.

Much of the work would be taking place from home, but it will also involve some face to face contact with clients, so living in or around the Ealing, Hounslow or Hillingdon boroughs would be an advantage.

All reasonable expenses will be reimbursed and refreshments provided where suitable.
