About MDSC
Muscular Dystrophy Support Centre (MDSC) exists to ensure that people affected by muscle-wasting conditions are not just supported, but heard, connected and empowered. We are a growing, values-led charity rooted in lived experience, community connection and practical impact.
This role sits at the heart of that mission.
The Role
This is not a tick-box participation post.
As our Service User Participation Worker, you’ll make sure service-user voice actively shapes our culture, communications and service design. You’ll build community connection, run meaningful participation activities, and capture powerful lived-experience insight that directly influences decision-making, storytelling and strategy.
You’ll work closely with colleagues across communications, therapy, fundraising and leadership — translating real experiences into real change.
What You’ll Be Doing
Building community & connection
- Designing and delivering inclusive activities, groups and events
- Creating both in-person and digital opportunities for peer support
- Supporting service users to become ambassadors and contributors
Leading meaningful participation
- Developing and embedding a clear participation and co-production model
- Facilitating forums, feedback sessions and co-production activities
- Making sure insight feeds directly into communications and service improvement
Capturing lived experience
- Safely and ethically collecting stories, feedback and content
- Working with the Communications team to create authentic, non-tokenistic content
- Ensuring consent, safeguarding and dignity are always front and centre
Advocacy & individual voice
- Supporting service users to share experiences and influence decisions
- Acting as a trusted point of contact
- Escalating safeguarding concerns where appropriate
Learning & impact
- Tracking engagement and participation outcomes
- Producing insight summaries and reports
- Closing the loop — showing people how their voice leads to change
About You
You’ll be organised, empathetic and confident working with people from all walks of life. You’re comfortable facilitating groups, handling sensitive information and balancing structure with warmth. You believe participation should be meaningful, not performative.
Experience of working with disabled people, health settings, charities or co-production models is an advantage — but mindset matters just as much as background.
What We Offer
- A role with genuine influence and visibility
- A supportive, values-driven team
- Strong commitment to training and development
- Employee Assistance Programme
- Pension contribution
- Generous annual leave (pro rata)
Safeguarding
This role is subject to a probationary period and an enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check.

We are looking for an ambitious, experienced and passionate Chief Financial & Operations Officer (CFOO) to join The Lifescape Project, leading the evolution, management and delivery of our financial and operational capacities as the organisation grows.
Our impact as a charity depends on excellent financial management and the efficient provision of supporting operational structures, policies and ways of working. As the organisation grows and diversifies, we need a dedicated Chief Financial and Operations Officer to lead the management and development of these critical functions in close liaison with the CEO. The CFOO will be second in command to the CEO and a key member of the Management Team.
About us and the role
We are a small and quickly growing UK-registered charity whose mission is to protect and restore wild, natural landscapes. We use the skills and expertise of our multi-disciplinary team (spanning science, law, economics, technology and culture) to develop projects that pursue this mission.
We use the approach of combining disciplines to design and deliver our work because the biodiversity crisis is driven and impacted by social, economic, legal and other complex factors. It is increasingly recognised that the urgent transformative change needed for a sustainable future on our planet is most effectively achieved through this approach. The Lifescape Project has a unique ability to apply these diverse areas of expertise to our mission whilst maintaining the agility of a smaller organisation in delivering our work.
Working in pursuit of our 2020-2026 strategy, the Lifescape Project has seen rapid growth in its impact, team and revenue since commencing work in 2020. Our annual revenue has increased from £265,000 in FY 2020/2021 to £1.2m in FY 2024/2025, with further growth expected in the current FY. Our team has grown from just one to a team which will number 20 at the time of the successful CFOO candidate joining. This growth to date and planned future growth requires constant evolution of our financial and operational infrastructure and an experienced hand to guide this process, which is the core purpose of the CFOO role we are seeking to appoint.
We are excited to be hiring for this role, which will be transformational for the organisation, allowing us to develop our approach to financial and operational matters and support the continued growth of our team and impact. The role will act as second in command and will deputise for the CEO when absent. We are therefore looking for a highly capable and experienced finance and operations leader with the vision to ensure that we continue to grow in a sustainable, effective and efficient way.
We currently have a full-time manager and officer in our Finance and Operations team (F&O Team), which the CFOO will be joining to oversee, develop and guide all relevant functions. With the small size of the team at this time, the CFOO will be expected to jump into the detail in some areas. In the short term this will include delivering some of the more complex areas of the F&O team’s work, such as the audit process, multi-year financial planning and legal compliance, with support from other team members and external advisers as appropriate. If we continue to succeed in delivering our growth strategy, the role will progress over the medium term with increasing team size/supervisory duties and reducing involvement in immediate implementation. Remuneration would also increase in line with growth and assuming strong performance in the role.

To apply, please email a cover letter and CV (each a maximum of 2 pages).
Closing date: 9.00pm on 29th January 2026, however we will be reviewing applications as they come in and reserve our discretion to extend the deadline if necessary.
First interview: First round interviews are expected to take place virtually on Microsoft Teams between 3rd-6th February.

BACKGROUND
Magic Breakfast’s mission is to end child morning hunger in the UK now and for good. The latest research suggests that the number of children and young people at risk of hunger has rocketed to 2.7 million, meaning that one in five children don’t have enough to eat. When a child is too hungry to learn, they struggle to concentrate, absorb information, and manage big emotions, causing them to fall behind in their studies.
Magic Breakfast provides a nutritious and filling breakfast to over 300,000 children and young people every school day. We work with schools in areas of high disadvantage, helping staff target the children most in need without barrier or stigma. We are now at an exciting point in our journey as we launch Nourishing Futures, our long-term strategy, which capitalises on market changes and government commitments to scale our work, while redefining breakfast spaces not just as places to eat, but as places to thrive.

You will use your commercial acumen and fundraising expertise to identify opportunities and support the team to recognise, shape, and pursue them confidently and effectively, enabling them to take ownership and drive progress across all income streams. A key part of the role will be ensuring that new commercial and public sector income streams are recognised, understood, and capitalised on across the organisation, working closely with the newly established Head of Business Development to embed this focus and enable them to succeed in driving this work forward.
Working closely with the CEO and Senior Leadership Team (SLT), you will play a crucial role in maintaining momentum, ensuring continuity, and supporting the organisation to deliver the new strategy and business plan, helping to realise opportunities, navigate challenges, and ensure long-term sustainability during this maternity cover period.

Our goal is to create an environment where everyone, from any background, can be themselves and do the best work of their lives.
We are looking for people that can bring different perspectives and experiences and especially welcome applications from those who are underrepresented in our organisation and sector, such as candidates from Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic backgrounds.
We’re a Stonewall Top 100 Employer and we are an employer that is Disability Confident. Our staff, volunteers and young people are supported by KT CAN (our Cultural Awareness Network), KT GEN (Gender Equality Network), KT DAWN (Disability & Wellbeing Network) and PULSE (LGBTQIA+ Network).
Safeguarding
The King's Trust is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. As part of this commitment, we undertake basic disclosure checks in accordance with the Codes of Practice for all roles within the Trust, and for our roles working directly with young people, at an enhanced level. Having a criminal record will not automatically exclude applicants.
A NOTE FOR RECRUITMENT AGENCIES:
We prefer to hire people directly, but we do have a preferred supplier list for when we need a helping hand. We'll be in touch directly if we need you!
We believe that every young person should have the chance to succeed, no matter their background or the challenges they are facing.
