Cats Protection is the UK’s leading feline welfare charity, and our vision is a world where every cat is treated with kindness and an understanding of its needs.
Cats are at the centre of everything we do, and our objectives are homing, neutering and educating people about cats and their care.
We help thousands of cats across the UK each year thanks to our network of dedicated volunteers, employees and supporters.
A bit about this role...
Every penny counts when it comes to improving the lives of the thousands of cats and kittens across the UK that need our help each year. Our Collection Box Volunteers help us raise vital funds by collecting and distributing collection boxes in their local area. Making a difference can mean as little as raising 20p, which is enough to feed one cat in our care for a day, to £150 which is the average cost of a cat in our care.
What can I expect to be doing?
As a flexible role, you have the choice to be involved in the following:
- Researching local shops, pubs and businesses to place Collection Boxes
- Delivering Collection Boxes to locations
- Recording donations and thanking local businesses and supporters
- Collecting and replacing Collection boxes when they're full
- Sharing your passion for cat welfare and promoting the work of Cats Protection
What are the benefits to you and the cats?
You will have the opportunity to develop your knowledge though Cats Protection’s learn online system, providing you with the skills to thrive as a fundraiser. You’ll also have the chance to meet new people and be part of a dedicated team of Volunteers.
Money raised by our volunteers enables us to put cats first. Cats are at the centre of all we do. We care for them, ensure their welfare, and help others to understand and better support them.
We're looking for someone with:
- Sympathy to cats and our values
- Good communication skills
- Confidence in speaking to members of the public
- Confidence in handling money
How much time is expected of me?
Our Collection Tin Volunteer role is very flexible and can be completed at your own pace, independently with our dedicated support.
Support, guidance and keeping you safe
At Cats Protection we believe our volunteers should be happy and confident in their roles. We provide support and guidance from our National Cat Centre and through our regional and local volunteer groups and teams. We offer engaging online and face-to-face training, expenses and have policies and processes to help volunteers get the most out of their time with us.
The wellbeing of our people is important and at Cats Protection we are committed to safeguarding children, adults at risk and all those that we encounter as part of our activities.
Thank you for your support and sharing in this commitment and for everything you will do during your time with Cats Protection!
Making a better life for cats, because life is better with cats

Time Commitment: Around 12 - 15 days per year
The Board meets four times year. Two of these meetings are in London or Truro (Cornwall) and two of the meetings are online. Trustees are also encouraged to be a member of one of three committees which meet quarterly for two hours online via Microsoft Teams. There is also an annual two-day Board retreat, which is held in person and is combined with a Board meeting.
Attendance: In person and online
Trustees may also be invited to attend occasional fundraising or networking events.
Term of Appointment: Trustees are appointed for a three-year term, which may be renewed at the end of the term. Trustees cannot serve more than three terms (nine years).
Historically, the organisation’s financial resources have surged in line with high profile disasters and public response. Therefore, it is vital that we continue to build strategies that focus on developing predictable funding growth and ensure we have a sustainable and diverse income profile globally.
As a global organisation, we are seeking applications from across the world, particularly from the global south and from individuals with protected characteristics. We are actively seeking applications from people who may be typically underrepresented or absent from boards and charity governance. This is a fantastic opportunity to use your skills and experience – including lived experience – to support ShelterBox to deliver its strategic goals.
You will be part of a global team working to ensure that no one is without shelter after disaster. Our values run through everything we do. They are the principles that guide how we approach our work with the people we support, our volunteers and our staff.
We would especially like to hear from you if you have experience in fundraising and communications, organisational risk management, charity governance, working with or as a volunteer, or HR and People management.
Role Purpose:
Trustees are responsible under the governing documents of ShelterBox for the governance of the charity.
Upon appointment you will be provided with all applicable governance documents. Management and administration are delegated to the CEO and staff of the organisation.
What are we looking for?
We are looking for people who are as passionate and committed as us to ensuring no one is without shelter after disaster. In an increasingly complex world, more and more families are in desperate need of emergency shelter.
We must do more. We want people to join us in taking on that challenge.
We are committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive board and are actively seeking to improve gender balance among our trustees.

To ensure the effective and efficient administration of ShelterBox by defining goals and evaluating performance against agreed targets.
To act in the best interests of ShelterBox as a whole and to put the interests of ShelterBox before those of any other organisation or person.
To identify areas for improvement and opportunities to maximise our performance, particularly in relation to the effective support, development and deployment of our people.

• Comfortable working with people, listening to them and understanding their needs

The Vision Friends project has been running successfully for the past five years, providing free, Welsh Government-funded training to health and social care professionals across Wales. The training is designed to help professionals better understand and support people living with sight loss.

The opportunity to influence real change;

A supportive, inclusive volunteering environment.
Please note, this volunteering opportunity takes place on Fridays only and is expected to last until Autumn 2025.
Experience of Welsh language skills and/or Microsoft Teams or Zoom would be helpful but not essential.

· Respect for confidentiality and group boundaries
· Ability to reflect, ask questions, and provide feedback on ideas, documents or processes
· Interest in learning about co-production, service transformation or health improvement
· Respect for inclusion, anti-discrimination, and safeguarding practices
· Willingness to learn digital tools (such as Zoom or MS Teams) with support if needed

Shannon Trust fulfils an unmet need around adult learning, supporting people who’ve fallen through the cracks in formal education.
We know a lot of people have had negative learning experiences in the past, so our programme is designed to be different, with no exams and no classrooms. Our unique, evidence-based Turning Pages reading manuals and Count Me In numeracy manuals are used by thousands of learners in prisons and the community to improve reading and numeracy skills.
Prison volunteers live near to their local prison so that they can visit about once a month during the working week to nurture the growth of the Shannon Trust in their prison. They help unlock the power of reading by offering advice, guidance, training and support to prison staff and prisoner mentors who help other prisoners to improve their skills 1 to 1.
We are looking for volunteers who are able to give a regular, reliable commitment for ideally two years and able to deliver engaging training to groups of people in prisons. Volunteers do not need to be teachers or qualified traininers, full training will be given. Due to the nature of the role, prison security vetting will be required.
We provide training for the role via e-learning and 4 training sessions which are a mix of live, online and group training.
