Title: Economics Advisor – Missing People
Summary
Missing People is recruiting volunteers with expertise in economics to support the early planning of a project exploring the economic impact of missing episodes and the harms experienced by individuals while missing. This work will inform the development of a robust, evidence-based estimate of the cost of a missing episode and the socio-economic return on investment (ROI) of prevention efforts.
As an Advisory Volunteer, you will provide expert guidance to help shape the scope and direction of this project. Your insights will help the charity identify key considerations, methodologies, and data needs - an area where we have limited in-house expertise.
Description
Someone is reported missing every 90 seconds in the UK. Missing People is the only UK charity dedicated to reconnecting missing people and their loved ones. Our services include:
-
A free and confidential helpline, available 7 days a week, for missing people and their loved ones,

-
Specialist services for children and young people, and their loved ones, experiencing exploitation,
-
Commissioned intensive support services for young people at particular risk,
-
Research, consultancy and training for professionals working around the issue of missing.
Our vision is that every missing person is found safe.
By supporting us to develop a compelling economic case for prevention, you’ll play a vital role in shaping how missing incidents are understood and addressed across the UK. We will use the information to influence nationally: sharing the figures with key decision-makers in government, policing, health and social care. This work will strengthen our case for funding essential services that prevent repeat missing episodes and support the development of more effective early intervention strategies.
We’ve already begun exploring this work but need additional external expertise to guide our planning and approach. As such we are recruiting new volunteer Economics Advisors. Advisors will be asked to:
-
Attend and participate in monthly project planning meeting (1-2 hours via video call, scheduled flexibly on weekdays or evenings) for a period of 6 months.
-
Review relevant documents and provide ad hoc advice between meetings (no more than 1-2 hours)
-
Get further involved in the project with a weekly commitment, if desired – this is entirely optional.
What impact will you have?
Your input will support Missing People to build a stronger case for prevention and change for missing people and their loved ones.
About the volunteer
We are looking for volunteers with:
-
A strong understanding of data and working with complex statistics
-
Experience in economic analysis of social issues and public policy, cost-benefit analysis, or social return on investment (SROI)
-
Willingness to support and advise Missing People’s Head of Policy and Head of Research in understanding an area outside of our usual expertise
-
The ability to ask key questions, offer constructive challenge, and act as a critical friend to staff
-
Commitment to attend monthly meetings for a 6-month project period

Social Friday
Social Friday reinvents the end of the workweek by transforming unproductive Friday hours into a global tradition of purpose, teamwork, and impact—connecting businesses, nonprofits, and communities through hands-on engagement.
Fridays are the least productive time of the week. Work slows down, focus fades, and hours are lost. The numbers are staggering:
- Unproductive Friday hours cost the U.S. economy $1.9 trillion annually.
- 1 in 4 people worldwide feel lonely, struggling to reach their full potential.
- The U.S. Surgeon General calls loneliness an epidemic, costing employers $154 billion yearly.
- Remote and hybrid work has widened the gap, leaving employees more disconnected than ever.
- Societal tensions are rising, creating an urgent need for initiatives that bring people together.
Governments debate the four-day workweek—but what if, instead of subtracting a day from work, we added purpose to Fridays?
We face a choice: -Accept the status quo and keep losing trillions. +Or flip the script, turning Fridays into a force for good.
Social Friday isn’t just a project—it’s a movement. A global tradition in the making that transforms the least productive hours of the week into moments of connection, impact, and purpose, where doing good becomes a habit.
Beyond one-time events, Social Friday is designed to scale into a lasting global movement, embedding social impact into work culture and everyday life.
How It Works
A scalable platform connects businesses, NGOs, and volunteers, transforming Fridays into a global force for change through engagement, collaboration, and gamification.
By integrating leaderboards, challenges, badges, and rewards, Social Friday keeps participation exciting and fosters a culture where social impact becomes part of the routine.
This isn’t just about reducing disengagement. It is about transforming the way society, nonprofits, and businesses connect, creating a future where social impact is a shared responsibility, embedded into everyday life. Social Friday has the power to turn the least productive time of the week into the most meaningful, a global tradition, the Olympics of Giving Back.
