Spero is a UK-born, newly formed, youth-led, non-profit global storytelling platform dedicated to sharing diverse perspectives from around the world. We're creating a place for people to look beyond their own borders and to learn and connect with the real lives and experiences of others everywhere.
Our aim is to foster understanding and connection in an increasingly polarised world by sharing authentic stories, building empathy, and encouraging thoughtful dialogue. Part of our mission is to humanise global issues, making them more engaging and accessible - especially for young people who often feel disconnected from traditional news and politics.
We’re looking for motivated people with the passion, time, and curiosity to join our team. Our volunteer roles are a chance to gain meaningful experience, contribute to an impactful mission, and grow your skills in a supportive, creative environment.
Spero is entirely volunteer-run, so these positions are unpaid and remote. But in return, you’ll gain hands-on experience in project management, communications, research, teamwork, creative production, and problem solving all while helping us build something that matters.

- Video media creation and editing
- Designing and executing social media strategy

- Measuring, tracking and interpreting analytics
What you need to know:
- Roles are part-time, flexible, and designed to fit around other elements of your life
- We are asking for a commitment of about 5-8 hours per week for a minimum of 3 months (but hopefully long-term if you enjoy our work)
- Our team meets on Mondays, 7:30–9:00 pm BST (attendance at most meetings is important, so make sure timing works if you’re international).
- Expected start date Monday 29th of September

betterSoil
betterSoil is a sustainable start-up and a movement that is passionately committed to the health of our earth's soil.
We are currently losing around 10 million hectares of fertile soil worldwide. That's about 14 million football pitches. However, good soils are the source of more than 90% of our food. At the same time, the world's population will grow to 10 billion people by 2050. Food will therefore become scarce, especially high-quality food, as this depends on the quality of the soil. The effects of climate change are worsening the situation of soils because droughts and extreme rainfall are becoming more severe and more frequent. Current farming methods lead to high CO2 emissions, diseased soils produce low-quality food and biodiversity is rapidly declining, as around half of biodiversity lives in the soil.
Since 2020, betterSoil has been involved at European level, e.g. with an event with the EU Parliament and prominent supporters such as Prof. Dr Ernst Ulrich von Weizsäcker, Dr Franz Fischler (Former EU Commissioner for Agriculture) and Dr Peter Johnston (European Policy Centre) in a national and international context to improve soil quality for climate resilience and climate protection as well as the promotion of biodiversity and sustainable food production. Our way of working goes far beyond soil consulting. We combine local, indigenous knowledge with the latest science and offer practice-orientated betterSoil recipes for farmers. We also offer individual consultations for companies and organisations of all kinds. In this way, we create a comprehensive awareness of soil health that helps to position oneself more sustainably and thus achieve business goals.
Newsletter & Blog Content Manager
Your Role As Newsletter & Blog Content Manager, you’ll shape how betterSoil communicates with its community and partners. Your work will help us reach more people, strengthen our impact, and showcase how soil can change the world.
Key tasks: • Write and edit engaging blog posts on soil, climate, and sustainable agriculture. • Create and manage our monthly newsletter (Mailchimp or similar). • Translate project updates, research, and events into accessible stories. • Coordinate a content calendar aligned with campaigns and events. • Coordination with the social media team • Assist with press releases or media outreach.
What We’re Looking For • Strong writing and communication skills. • Passion for sustainability, agriculture, or climate action (no need to be a soil expert, but a basic understanding of the topic and a genuine interest in learning more are essential. • Experience with newsletters, blogging, or content management • Creativity, reliability, and the ability to work independently in a remote team.
What You’ll Gain • Be part of an international, mission-driven team reimagining soil as the foundation of a sustainable future. • Build a portfolio of published content on climate and agriculture. • Learn about soil, regenerative agriculture, and sustainability strategies. • Contribute flexibly from anywhere in the world . • Make a tangible difference in a growing social impact initiative. • Get recognized for your impact – we’ll provide a written confirmation of your volunteer work in climate action.
Commitment: Flexible, part-time volunteer (approx. 6 hrs/week ). Duration: Minimum 1 year (longer preferred with potential for future paid collaboration as the organization grows). Compensation: Volunteer (impact-driven role).

About the Role:
As a Community Fundraising Organiser, you will be responsible to putting on a minimum of two events in your local area to help raise awareness and funds for the crucial work we do at the NSPCC.
You can use your personal passions and interests to set up any event that interests you (within reason). This could be a challenge event – like a sunrise walk, a monthly club – like a running or book club or anything else. The flexibility is really there – if you are struggling with ideas, a Community Fundraising Manager will be there to help you along the way!
This role offers a unique opportunity to turn your passion or interest into something that helps fund the fight to end cruelty to children.
Main Duties and Responsibilities:
- Organize and manage fundraising events in your local area, such as charity challenges, social clubs, or awareness campaigns.
- Use your creativity to design events that engage your community and align with your personal interests, whether it's a sunrise walk, a running or book club, or any other fun and impactful activity.
- Promote NSPCC's mission and work, educating your community on the importance of protecting children and supporting the fight to end cruelty to children.
- Collaborate with the NSPCC fundraising team for guidance, resources, and support to ensure your event's success.
- Foster relationships within your local community to encourage long-term support for NSPCC's cause.
Skills & Qualifications:
While no specific qualifications are required, the following skills and attributes will help you succeed in this role:
- Passion for the Cause: A genuine interest in the NSPCC's mission to end cruelty to children and a commitment to raising awareness in your community.
- Event Planning and Organization: Ability to plan, coordinate, and manage community events, ensuring they run smoothly and are enjoyable for participants.
- Communication Skills: Strong verbal and written communication skills to promote your events, engage with potential participants, and build relationships with local supporters.
- Creativity: A willingness to think outside the box and come up with fun and innovative fundraising ideas that will attract attention and inspire others to get involved.
- Leadership and Teamwork: Ability to lead your own projects while working collaboratively with the NSPCC team and local supporters.
- Time Management: Effective time management skills to balance your volunteering responsibilities with other commitments and ensure deadlines are met.
- Adaptability: Flexibility to handle various tasks and adapt to changes or challenges that may arise during the planning or execution of events.
- Basic Marketing and Promotion: Familiarity with social media or other promotional methods to spread the word about your events and drive participation.
Previous fundraising or volunteer experience is helpful but not essential. Most importantly, a passion for making a difference in the lives of children is key to success in this role.
Benefits
- A unique opportunity to turn your passions into meaningful fundraising efforts that help protect children.
- Flexible role with opportunities to meet new people and engage with local businesses and communities.
- Personal growth through organizing and leading events, gaining valuable skills in project management, communication, and community engagement.
- Training and support from the NSPCC team.
- Be part of a dedicated and passionate team working to make a difference in children's lives.
This is a fantastic opportunity to contribute to a meaningful cause, engage with your community, and help support children's well-being. If you have a passion for the NSPCC and taking on an exciting opportunity, we'd love to hear from you!
