From launching legal action and producing hard-hitting research to working directly with local communities, we drive systemic change across food and farming, powered by grassroots energy and backed by the facts.
We exist to say what others won’t, do what others don’t, and never settle for “it can’t be done”. Change is possible, and we are rising to make it happen.

About us
We’re Campaign Against Living Miserably (CALM), and we’re united against suicide.
We’re a suicide prevention charity, on a mission to help people end their misery, not their lives. We run stigma-smashing campaigns, offer loads of digital tools and resources, and run a life-saving helpline - all designed to help people find hope and a way forward. We are - united against suicide.
Don't meet every requirement? We’re still interested.
Research shows that people from marginalised groups – including women, LGBTQ+ people, people from global majority backgrounds, disabled people, and those from lower socioeconomic backgrounds – are less likely to apply for a role unless they meet the full criteria. At CALM, we know that skills and potential come in many forms, and that diverse perspectives and lived experience of mental health or suicide can be just as valuable as formal qualifications.
If you're passionate about our mission but your experience doesn't tick every box, we'd still love to hear from you. You could be exactly who we're looking for.

Role: You will work with local residents to bring about positive change for North Leatherhead, by supporting community-led activities, growing local leaders, and facilitating residents’ engagement in decisions affecting this community.
Pay: £32,136 a year (pro rata).
Contract: permanent contract, subject to a 4-month probationary period.
Hours: 4 or 5 days a week, including occasional evening and weekend working, to be agreed with the successful applicant.
Location: LCH, Kingston Road, Leatherhead. KT22 7PX. Not suitable for remote working.
Background
Leatherhead Community Hub (LCH) has employed a Community Development/Engagement Worker since 2022, building relationships with local residents and listening to people’s concerns and hopes for North Leatherhead. This has led to the development of a number of successful community-led activities, including our weekly non-contact boxing and football training sessions for children and young people. More recently, we set up a Residents’ Panel and carried out a large-scale Community Survey, to help ensure that LCH is always listening to local residents and guided by local priorities.
This role is a vital element of LCH’s strategic vision for the next three years and beyond:
· cultivating community – offering a safe space for community activities that strengthen mutual support networks.
· growing capability - equipping local residents with the skills and confidence to bring about positive change in their community.
· fostering connections - acting as a focal point for collaborative working between local charities, agencies and businesses.
Our community development work is particularly focused on “growing capability”, recognising the importance of focusing time and energy into listening, encouraging and empowering others, and offering opportunities for local residents to get involved through volunteering, training, and working with us.
LCH is always seeking to be shaped by the desires and needs that arise within the community, by bringing people’s ideas into action and giving residents a voice in decisions affecting the local area. As a charity, we are also working towards residents being involved in every aspect of the governance of LCH, whether as trustees or on the management and operations teams.
Context
North Leatherhead is in the top 10% most deprived neighbourhoods in Surrey, with relatively high rates of poverty, economic inactivity, poor physical and mental health, and social isolation; all these issues have been exacerbated by the lack of community provision and damaging impact of the closure of the children’s centre and other community buildings in recent years.
Leatherhead Community Hub (LCH) was set up in July 2020 as a dedicated community centre in North Leatherhead. LCH provides opportunities for people to come together socially and build community, as well as giving our partner organisations a permanent base from which to offer critical support to local residents. Our mission is to create a safe, welcoming space at the heart of the community, where people of all ages can connect, learn, have fun, and find the support they need to thrive. The Hub attracts around 3,500 visitors a month to our affordable café and the many other community activities run by LCH and other community groups.
Description of role:
We are looking for someone who is capable of running community projects, but who is keen to involve others and gains most joy and satisfaction from developing leaders and volunteers from within the local community and seeing them grow and succeed in their roles.
In this role, you will be responsible for engaging and empowering the residents of North Leatherhead to facilitate positive change for the local community, by:
1) overseeing existing community projects, and encouraging the involvement of local residents in supporting, running, and leading these projects;
2) equipping local residents with the skills and confidence to initiate and run new community-led events and activities;
3) facilitating and growing our Residents’ Panel to play a key role in the governance and running of LCH, with a view to appointing several trustees from the local community.
4) promoting dialogue and collaboration between local residents and service providers, enabling people to have a greater say in decisions affecting the community;
5) supporting the management team and trustees in prioritising LCH’s resources to best serving the desires and needs of the local community.
6) subject to experience, we would also like the postholder to help with, or lead on, our social media alongside volunteers from the local community - although this is not an essential requirement for this role.
You will be employed by Leatherhead Community Hub, using the Hub as a base for networking, capacity-building, and community-led activities, whilst also reaching out and making connections with other sections of the local community. This role will require you to have a regular presence at LCH and in the wider community.
You will work closely with local service providers and other community organisations, including the council, housing association, and GP practices, as well as LCH’s core partners: Citizens Advice Mole Valley, EDGE Disability, Good Company Surrey (Foodbank), Link 2030, Mid-Surrey Community Fridges, The Gathering Church, and The Hive (a creative arts project). You will help promote a collaborative and participatory approach to supporting the community, seeking to ensure that local residents are directly engaged in initiatives aimed at meeting the needs of the North Leatherhead community.
You will be member of LCH’s Management Team, and line managed by the Managing Director, Tom Sefton, with advice & support from one of our Trustees and Co-Founders, Jenny Moore, who has worked in this community for over 20 years.
This role is partly funded by a multi-year grant from the National Lottery’s Reaching Communities Fund, which includes a number of specific objectives which you will be responsible for delivering, including: growing our youth sports projects, supporting more community-led activities, establishing our Residents’ Panel; and increasing local representation on our Board of Trustees.
Requirements of the postholder:
Essential:
· Excellent listening skills – friendly and approachable, with the ability to connect with people from a wide range of backgrounds and make them feel supported and valued.
· A proven ability and desire to motivate and support people to use and develop their strengths and skills for the benefit of the wider community.
· Good networking skills and experience of working well with other organisations to achieve positive change for the community.
· Experience of volunteering and/or working in a range of community settings.
· Strong organisational and time management skills, and good IT skills.
· A positive and creative approach to work – able to handle new or competing demands and work on own initiative without close supervision.
· A willingness to work flexibly, including occasional evening and weekend meetings and events.
· A firm commitment to the vision, mission and values of LCH.
Desirable:
· Previous experience of working as a community development worker or similar role.

· Demonstrable experience in developing and running community-led events and activities, in a voluntary or paid capacity.

The Communications and Narratives Lead will work closely with, and be line managed by, the Executive Director, who sets the strategic direction, editorial oversight and quality standards for WSC's communications.
The postholder will lead the day-to-day delivery of WSC's communications and narrative change activity, creating compelling content across digital, print and social channels, supporting media and press work, and playing a central role in delivering WSC's Communications Strategy. This includes helping to build and mobilise a worker-led movement, supporting coalition and ally relationships, and delivering campaign moments that build public and political support for decent work for all.
This is a lead role for someone who combines significant, demonstrable experience in communications with a genuine interest in organising, campaigning and movement-building. We are looking for someone with relevant professional training or development, for example in media relations, campaigning or organising, or framing and narrative approaches, who can bring self-starting, leadership to this role.
Key Responsibilities
Content & Channel Management
• Develop and deliver WSC's Communications Strategy, supporting the development of strong narrative framing for engaging with our base, allies and potential/moveble audiences at the local, regional and national levels.
• Lead the development of high-quality, values-led content across digital, print and offline channels, including the website, social media, email, newsletters, reports and campaign materials.
• Manage and maintain WSC's social media channels, including planning content calendars, growing engagement, and monitoring performance.
• Manage and update WSC's website and digital platforms, ensuring content is current, accessible and on-brand.
• Maintain brand consistency, tone of voice and worker-centred storytelling across all communications.
• Ensure consistent and impactful messaging across all communications platforms.
Media & External Relations
• Draft press releases, briefings, statements and reactive lines, acting as a media spokesperson as well as supporting others in the organisation to do so.
• Build and maintain working relationships with journalists, media outlets and sector partners to secure opportunities that foreground the experiences and analysis of workers.
• Monitor media and online coverage (e.g. maintaining a media diary and social listening on key hashtags and terms) to spot shifts in language, sentiment and identify new communications opportunities.
Narrative change and movement building
• Oversee message framings that activate our strategic narrative grounded in workers’ rights and values such as solidarity, equality, safety, collaboration and creativity.
• Work with WSC colleagues, partners, artists, and researchers to develop and disseminate compelling storytelling content, including videos, articles, social media assets and artistic displays.
• Lead on testing and refining messaging with workers, allies and the wider public, including by leading and running workshops.
• Lead delivery of campaign moments and key dates ensuring worker voices are central and framing is consistent.
• Help identify, brief and support workers and messengers to share their experiences through media, events and public forums.
• Mobilise our base, allies and potential/moveable audiences around key policy opportunities, consultations and campaign moments, including public-facing activity aimed at growing WSC's movement of active supporters.
Stakeholder Engagement & Participation
• Help organise and deliver worker and ally events (e.g. seasonal in-person events, message-testing sessions and framing workshops) that help refine WSC's messaging.
• Build and maintain relationships with allies and coalition partners, including trade unions, human rights and housing organisations, food and farming networks, professional bodies and community organisations, supporting joint statements, shared briefings and coordinated campaign activity.
• Work collaboratively with policy, casework and operations colleagues to ensure communications and movement-building activity supports organisational priorities.
• Co-produce communications and campaign outputs with workers, including by attending worker power sessions, prioritising their voices, interests, concerns and ensuring safeguarding is central.
Administration, Monitoring & Oversight
• Track and evaluate the effectiveness of WSC’s communications strategies, media coverage, and narrative change activities.
• Maintain up-to-date communications databases, including segmenting contacts on Mailchimp and other contact/CRM systems.
• Monitor, evaluate and report on communications and campaign performance, contributing to the evaluation of key moments against WSC's influencing aims.
• Ensure all communications and campaign activity complies with legal, regulatory, safeguarding, data protection (GDPR) and charity requirements.
• Manage freelancers, agencies or consultants (for example design or digital support) as directed by the Executive Director.

Our Organisation
The Football Association (The FA) is the governing body of football in England. We are responsible for promoting and developing the game at all levels; from grassroots through to the professional game, The FA Cup and the England Teams, and we have two world class assets: Wembley Stadium and St. George's Park.
Our vision is to inspire positive change through football; our national game that breaks down barriers and unites people from very different backgrounds. Today, we are the governing body of a national community that includes more than 15.7 million football participants, almost 30 million fans and more than 90,000 grassroots teams.
At The FA mental health and wellbeing is a core enabler of everything we do, personally and professionally, on the field and off the field, in how we perform, deliver, and navigate the world around us.
The Role
As an organisation we are increasingly responding to a range of complex mental health related cases that often involve ethical, psychosocial, and occupational challenges that impact individuals as well as presenting, in some cases, increased organisational risk. As we continue to evolve our internal support structures, we recognise the value that an independent expert panel will bring.
The purpose of the Independent Mental Health Expert Panel (IMHEP) is to bring together specialists to provide independent multidisciplinary oversight, consultation, reflective supervision and expert guidance regarding complex mental health cases. The focus of the panel is to support our internal workforce of c.1000 colleagues, for whom we have a duty of care to support and protect mental health and wellbeing.
We are looking for individuals with a strong passion for delivering human centred, multidisciplinary mental health care, and a broad knowledge of the mental health challenges faced by individuals working in high performance sport cultures. We are seeking individuals with a sound understanding of the modern game of football in its various forms, and who have a comprehensive working knowledge of the most up to date policy and research progressions in their respective field.
Key Accountabilities
As a member of the IMHEP you will be required to:
The panel will offer recommendation only and The FA retains operational, legal, clinical, safeguarding and managerial accountability for all decisions.
The MH&WB team will be responsible for coordinating the panel, chairing meetings, recording and securely storing/sharing relevant information, and remain accountable for all case related decision making.
There will be two formal meetings per year where a selection of complex cases will be taken to the panel for review and discussion. Examples of selected cases might include:
What we are looking for
Members of the Panel will include:
Members of the Panel will be expected to participate independently and objectively, and within the boundaries of their professional competence. Any conflicts of interest (case specific or in relation to the organisation whole) must be declared to the Chair of the Panel prior to participation. Contributions must be constructive and offered for the good of The FA and its employees. Members are expected to promote safe and ethical practice at all times and maintain confidentiality throughout (The panel may decide that confidentiality be broken where there is a legal obligation to disclose information, where there is a risk of serious harm to an individual or others, or where the sharing of information is needed to safeguard an individuals welfare)
Time Commitment
As a minimum, IMHEP members should attend two scheduled meetings per year to review and discuss a selection of identified complex cases. Meetings will usually be face to face on weekdays at The National Football Centre St George's Park, or Wembley Stadium. Additional Panel meetings may be called at the discretion of the Panel Chair. Panel members will also be available for ad hoc consultation on specific matters within the Panel's remit as required. Ad hoc meetings will be kept to a minimum and usually be held online.
Members will receive a set fee for attending meetings, and reasonable expenses incurred in order to travel to meetings will be reimbursed.
Members will be appointed for an initial term of two years, after which they will be eligible to reapply for another two years, up to four times (maximum of 8 years). Members can resign from the Panel at any point with written notice, and The FA can also terminate appointments where necessary.
