Progressive Farming Trust is looking for new board members
Progressive Farming Trust is a charity working to advance collective knowledge and practice in environmentally sensitive and organic farming.
We focus on three main areas:
- Enhancing knowledge exchange, education, and training that drive on-farm action
- Supporting farm businesses to adopt more resilient and sustainable models
- Strengthening shorter, fairer supply chains that empower both farmers and consumers
To help deliver these priorities we run:
- Agricology, a free information hub where farmers and growers can access practical guidance about sustainable agriculture
- Dean Organic Fund, offering small interest free loans to organic farmers
Established in 1980, the Trust has a long history of supporting progressive farming. For many years we worked as the Organic Research Centre, and following a de-merger in September 2025, we have refocused our activities and are now developing a new strategy to guide our future work.
We are recruiting up to four new volunteer Directors to join our Board and help strengthen the organisation. The Board currently meets quarterly (around one day every three months), either in person or online.
We welcome applications from people who bring any of the following:
- Experience as a grower, farmer, or food producer
- Knowledge of charity sector finance
- An interest in improving uptake of knowledge and skills in sustainable agriculture and food supply chains
We are actively working to build a more inclusive and diverse Board and particularly encourage applications from people who are underrepresented in food growing, farming, and the environmental sector. We value lived experience as well as professional expertise.
The client requests no contact from agencies or media sales.

About our charity
Everyone deserves to live their life to the full, with maximum choice and control. Our purpose is to make that a reality for young people with vision impairment and complex needs. They face a multitude of barriers because of the combined impact of a vision impairment with other disabilities and support needs. We enable each person to find their unique pathway towards their very best life, using our specialist expertise and knowledge.
Our charity is now looking to recruit new trustees to help shape this vital work.
Plans to develop our board
We are specifically seeking one or more trustees with a good knowledge and experience of adult social care. As well as the normal duties of a trustee, you would take a specific interest in our adult care service provision – St Davids House (residential care), Jigsaw (day service) and our Supported Living service.

The Board meets seven times a year and is also invited to all events and celebrations which is optional. Trustees are warmly encouraged to attend meetings in person, but if required can attend some meetings online. Expenses are paid for travel and overnight accommodation can be arranged for those not local to Devon.

The ethos of the Confidence Academy is very simple: Participants get their money back once they attend their selected fitness and wellbeing events. When you show up for your health, when you show up for yourself... your refund is your reward.
The Confidence Academy exists to make the tools of confidence-building — through improved nutrition, better mental and physical fitness, and community support — accessible to all, particularly to struggling and marginalised communities who often feel invisible or left behind. Health inequality is one of the biggest injustice of them all that we don't talk about yet our health is the sole foundation of our existence.
Who Created The Confidence Academy: The Academy is founded by a 37 year old refugee from Bangladesh, Rayhana Sultan. She is an ex-prisoner. This social enterprise was created after she was able to rebuild her life after prison, hospital detention and recovery through psychotherapy and a supportive community. She is now a finance manager working for the local government in the UK. Outside her day job, she is a model, a panel advisor for the charity Working Chance and now through the Confidence Academy, she wants other people to find the inspiration to turn their pain into power, stigma into strength.
The inception of this CIC is driven by the fact that nearly 60% of the UK population in 2023/24 were reported as obese or overweight. This is a national crisis in a context where our healthcare system is overstretched, support for mental health is not on par which can be exacerbated by health-related problems and an ageing population is awaiting us. Growing old or not being able to afford the regular gym in an era should not mean fitness services are inaccessible to you. So we are here to change it.
What's happening Next: We will begin rolling out weekend fitness and wellbeing activities shortly after New Year 2026, supported by online seminars, podcast-style discussions, and community “vox pop” features that amplify real voices and lived experiences around health, confidence, and inclusion. These activities will include group exercise sessions, nutrition and wellness education, mindset and resilience workshops, and confidence-building programmes designed to enhance both physical and mental wellbeing.
Purpose of the Role: You will be the creative storyteller of The Confidence Academy — helping build our public presence and communicate our message visually. This role blends creativity, courage, and purpose, calling for someone who believes in the power of movement to transform confidence and community wellbeing.
Main Activities:
1. Set up and manage TikTok, Instagram, and Facebook accounts for The Confidence Academy.
2. Create engaging short-form videos, infographics, and other visual content.
3. Assist with building and maintaining the official website (experience of Wordpress and Tumblr is preferred but training will be provided).
4. Develop consistent branding and tone across all media.
5. Collaborate closely with other team members on communications, content scheduling and any reasonable tasks.
6. Attend weekly team meetings (online or in-person depending on business needs).
7. Travel to filming locations, community events, or fitness sessions where required.
8. Ensure all digital content complies with the Data Protection Act 2018 (UK GDPR) and that consent is obtained for participant images and stories.
Skills and Qualities:
1. Creative thinker with an eye for design, colour, and storytelling
2. Comfortable with video editing, social media tools, or simple graphic software (e.g. Canva, CapCut)
3. Passionate about fitness, health, and wellbeing
4. Reliable, organised, and confident working independently
5. Willing to travel within London for content creation and meetings
What you get in return:
1. Induction and ongoing supervision by the Founder/Director
2. Access to brand guidelines and creative templates
3. Informal training on safeguarding, data handling, and health & safety
4. Office space may be provided for collaborative projects
5. Volunteering Certificate at the end of the completion of hours
6. Complimentary t-shirt/jacket and other freebies
7. Professional reference
8. Travel and meal expenses reimbursed up to £20
9. £50 in Amazon Gift Card when you help us deliver our first fitness session (our launch event) in the 2026 New Year
Equal Opportunities:
The Confidence Academy is committed to inclusion under the Equality Act 2010. We welcome volunteers from all backgrounds and provide reasonable adjustments where needed.
Status:
This is a voluntary role and does not create a contract of employment or entitlement to salary, benefits, or worker rights. Volunteers are free to withdraw at any time.
If you require any reasonable adjustment during interview, please mention it in your cover letter. Thank you.

The Role
Our Lotus Community works alongside the City of Edinburgh Council to provide accommodation for 14 young people (aged 16-18), who are unaccompanied asylum-seekers. They come from a variety of different countries.
The community is a step towards independent living, whilst they await a decision about their ‘leave to remain’ in the country. The asylum procedure can be a long, complicated, overwhelming and challenging process. We support the young people in the best way during this stressful time (and after). They are supported by social workers and a guardianship service as well.
What will you do as a volunteer?
We are looking for highly motivated individuals who work well independently, are proactive and can get involved in community activities. You will support the residents of the community and help look after your shared spaces in the flats. Most of the residents have basic living skills, including cooking, cleaning and budgeting. We offer further support where needed.
We can also help them gain confidence and knowledge of the local area. This is to enable them to take further steps towards independence and integration in the local community. This is also with the purpose of them moving on to accommodation that better suits their needs in the future.
Depending on the season, and interests and abilities of the residents, your tasks can include:
- Being a peer mentor and staying in touch with the residents via WhatsApp
- Organise our monthly community meeting
- Organise activities, which can be walks, cycling, board games night, karaoke, tea and cake (whatever your interests) for the residents to come along.
- Reporting issues with the flat, repairs etc.
- Making sure that all rooms always have the equipment needed (cleaning products, toilet roll, hand sanitiser, condoms etc).
- Updating your (online) calendar for the week, so everyone knows when you are volunteering and not.
- Working together with your fellow volunteer(s) to organise activities and arrange rota.
What you get:
Location: You will live in a studio bedroom in the flat alongside the young residents. You will not pay for rent or bills (including internet).
Time: 20 hours per week for minimum 6 months. These are during the evening and weekends, with exception for a few hours spent in meetings and alike.
You can volunteer and work part time at the same time. You will organise your volunteering hours with the other volunteer.
We will provide support and training needed for you to engage with the tasks and young people in a safe manner. Support, supervision and team meetings are every month.
The client requests no contact from agencies or media sales.
Join the Largest Deployments Programme in the World!
Throughout the year, our Reachers travel overseas to gain an in-depth, on-the-ground understanding of what it takes to deliver aid amidst humanitarian crises. You’ll learn transferable skills such as fundraising, communication, and how to be both a team-player and a great leader. You’ll develop grit, resolve, resilience, and compassion, while gaining an insight into how NGOs work. One thing’s for sure, a Reach Deployment can change your life forever.
The minute you sign up to Reach, you become known as a ‘Reacher’ who is part of the Human Appeal family. We’ll support you every step of the way, from helping unlock your fundraising potential to developing your leadership skills. Expect one-to-one fundraising guidance, regular online meetings and coaching, leadership training seminars, and life-changing overseas missions. If you want to serve humanity on a global scale and raise vital funds, your journey starts here
The deployment journey has 3 important steps
After signing up and deciding upon the country you want to visit, the first step of your journey will be fundraising. Each country has its own fundraising target – please see below. Remember, you have as much time as you need to raise funds. Plus, what’s so unique about a Reach Deployment is that we don’t ask for a registration fee.
Briefing
Whether conflict or climate-related, humanitarian crises zones face the same challenges: a deteriorating infrastructure and lack of access to food, safe water, healthcare, sanitation facilities and shelter. Before you travel, you will receive a full briefing on the humanitarian situation. We’ll cover information such as what to pack, itinerary and flight information, and provide mandatory safeguarding training to protect our beneficiaries. We’ll also answer any questions you may have.
Deployment
This once-in-a-lifetime experience allows you to spend time with the people we support and see, first-hand, the real, tangible difference that humanitarian aid delivery can make, and understand the challenges faced by those living in harsh conditions.

We deliver outdoor training, learning and wellbeing programmes in Mid and South West Wales, across Carmarthenshire, Ceredigion, Pembrokeshire and Powys, successfully benefitting hundreds of people each year in those counties.

Our organisation would benefit from more diverse and under-represented voices so please apply even if you haven’t done anything like this before.
