Personal assistant volunteer roles
The League of Remembrance have supported Armed Forces veterans, and their families for over 100 years. At the outset they supported the widows of those who never returned from the Great War, and, as they developed, extended this support to encompass all veterans who have served with the Forces of the Crown; their widows, spouses, and dependents; retired nursing staff and, more recently, to those suffering from illness or disability in order to aid their recovery. Today, many of their Remembrance Workers deliver varied volunteer services, mainly in Greater London, but with a presence also in Bucks and Essex. This service to the community maintains and improves individual health and wellbeing, offers companionship and social interaction, and provides valuable community support.
The League of Remembrance is seeking to strengthen its Board with the appointment of two new Trustees. We are looking for individuals who are passionate about supporting veterans and those affected by disability, and who can help shape the future of the charity as they continue to grow and evolve.
In particular, we are keen to hear from candidates with experience in one or more of the following areas:
- Entrepreneurship
- Fundraising and income generation
- Third sector leadership
- Business development or commercial strategy
Trustees have a duty to ensure that the charity is well run, solvent, legally compliant, and working towards the charitable purpose for which it was established, and Trustee roles are an important and a highly rewarding way to support an organisation. Please note that Trustee roles are unremunerated voluntary positions, although reasonable travel expenses will be paid.
The League of Remembrance is committed to equality of opportunity, supports, and encourages under-represented groups, and values diversity. We seek people from a wide range of backgrounds, who will bring a fresh perspective to the Board, and having reviewed existing Trustee's diversity, skills, and experience, LOR are keen for the Board to reflect the diversity of the communities that they work with and therefore welcome applications from all sections of the community.
Please apply to Langton N4P to view further details.

This is a varied role that each branch tends to do a bit differently, but it will involve:
• Accurately maintaining income and expenditure records to document and report on branch finances
• Offering objectivity around the spending of money and ensuring money is spent in a cost-effective manner
• Approving income and expenditure with the other branch bank account signatories
• Ensuring that our financial requirements and policies relating to group finances are followed
We can support you to develop the skills you need for this role, and there’s an induction that covers all the areas above. You’ll also have chance to discuss your role and any additional needs with us.
What you’ll need for this role
• Confident using Microsoft Office, the internet and email
• Experience in bookkeeping, budgeting, and planning income and expenditure
• Able to apply disability, equality, and inclusion practices
• Able to keep people’s personal data safe
• A commitment to our aims and values
You’ll also need to complete the induction checklist and some online training.
Where will I volunteer?
The Finance Volunteer role is largely home based, but it varies from branch to branch – some branches hold in-person meetings once a month or so, and their Finance Volunteers tend to be based in the area the branch covers.
If it works better for you, however, there’s a possibility this role could be done remotely.
Your local branch will be able to provide more information.
Time commitment
This also varies, but it’s generally around 1-2 hours a week.
Why volunteer
When you volunteer with us, you join a community of committed people with a passion for helping to improve the lives of others. We’re a volunteer led organisation and we couldn’t do what we do without your hard work, skills and commitment.
N.B. We’ll reimburse any out-of-pocket expenses during your time
