Who are we looking for?
At present we are working to secure funding that will see us through our first year, and the role of the Social Media and Communications Co-ordinator will play a key role in this.
If you are well versed in social media, have experience or a passion for communicating with wide audiences across pretty much all social media platforms, this is a role for you.
Living Reasons, at the core of what we want to achieve, doesn't just value experience from employment but from personal experience and based on you as a person, everything else comes from the relationships built and trust given to each other and we want to learn from you, just as much as you will learn from us.
You will work with the volunteers and trustees to create engaging content that focuses on the current needs of the charity and in the first 3-6 months will be very much focused and 2 areas - fundraising and communicating the charity message and gaining support for the charity as we establish ourselves. We want to do things differently, so there are no boundaries other than legal requirements and ensuring we stick to the charity values, which, as you will see, are very much about making change and doing things differently.
Living Reasons – What we are planning, who we are and where we are now:
What is the plan?
The person who is starting the charity up is autistic, has ADHD, CPTSD and also multiple physical conditions that effect daily life and is part of the LGBTQ+ community and has faced a lot of issues in life because of these things.
Living Reasons is being created to fix what we think is a challenging situation that is getting harder to achieve every week, month and year in the current economic, political, environmental and societal landscape. It is not easily defined but we hope the charity objects below will help put context to what we want to achieve, what we can say is that below are the issues we are trying to address, how we do this will change as quickly as society does, but the issues we want to tackle are these:
1) Outdated and damaging employment practices
2) Accessibility to services
3) Limited employment, training and education opportunities
4) Lack of support during times of crisis or need
5) Lack of equity and agency for many people in society
6) Institutional discrimination that is not challenged

Hoopsy
On a mission to eliminate plasic from lateral flow tests and make it easier to interpret results, starting with the pregnancy test.
Plastic pollution from lateral flow tests, every year over 178m kg of plastic from over 30 billion tests used across medical, environmental, food, and veterinary testing are thrown away. This plastic takes 30+ years to breakdown into microplastics which then pollute water, soil, food and eventually us.
We have developed a 99% plastic-free pregnancy test and are working on a 100% plastic-free test. Our plastic-free test will reduce carbon emissions by 79% versa the equivalent plastic one.
Hoopsy is focused on the USA market and is run by Lara Solomon, a solo founder, so any help with the business is VERY greatly received.

I know that I could chatgpt (or whatever), but having done that before, it is hard to get the right tone (friendly & knowledgeable) without rewriting it, and so although it can be a starting point, I don't want a copy and paste from Chatgpt, I want real people.

Volunteer Graphic Designer – Shape the Face of MINDSET Charity
Are you a creative visionary with a passion for purpose? Do you believe design can change minds—and lives?
MINDSET is a bold new UK charity supporting men’s mental health and personal growth. We’re building a movement that helps men speak up, grow stronger, and connect deeply. But to do that, we need a visual identity that speaks volumes.
We’re looking for a talented Graphic Designer to help us craft our brand and visual style design, including social media posts, roll up banners, posters and much more —so we can be recognised, remembered, and respected.
Why MINDSET Matters

Suicide is the leading cause of death for men under 50 in the UK.
-
1 in 8 men experience mental health challenges—but many never seek help.

We’re here to change that—with connection, creativity, and courage.

Strong portfolio showcasing logo and brand work.

Passion for mental health, social impact, or community projects.

Ability to work collaboratively and respond to feedback.
