Loneliness is one of the quietest challenges of our time, but at SUNSHINE, we believe in the power of people coming together to change that story, to break through the clouds with beautiful rays of warmth, belonging, and hope.

SUNSHINE is a brand new loneliness and wellbeing charity with a simple but powerful mission: to bring people together, spread joy, nurture community spirit, and create spaces where everyone feels seen, valued, and connected.

With our charity application submitted, our dedicated Board of Trustees in place, and a series of exciting pilot programmes ready to launch, we are stepping into a defining moment and we’re looking for someone extraordinary to step in with us.

Could you be our first ever Volunteer Coordinator / Volunteer Manager?

This is a rare and meaningful opportunity to help shape a charity from the ground up by building the very heart of our movement: our volunteers.

• Training, onboarding, and communication pathways that feel warm and human.

• Volunteer teams for our pilot programmes — from wellbeing workshops to community meet-ups.
