Here at Youth4Youth, we have grown a strong, tight-knit community of individuals who are passionate about making a difference and improving the lives of young people across the UK. Our growing team of volunteers all contribute, significantly, to the impact that we have as a charity on our direct beneficiaries, regardless of the department that they work in of the level of time that they are able to commit. Our services primarily offer a peer-support network to young people right across the UK, allowing them to access a peer mentor who is of a similar age to them and somebody that they feel more comfortable speaking with.
If successful, you will be joining a growing team of diverse, but likeminded individuals, collaborating to increase the reach of the Charity and improve support provisions available to young people. All of our volunteers and employees are remote workers, but that doesn't stop us keeping in touch and maintaining a strong positive culture amongst our whole team.

Our mission is to continue to grow towards becoming one of the best charities in the UK. Our aim is to do this by building a diverse team, rich with different backgrounds and perspectives.

WHO ARE WE?
Palmed Academy, the education arm of Palmed UK, is training the next generation of healthcare workers in Gaza. There is an extreme shortage of health workers and limited educational opportunities for medical, dental, and nursing students in Gaza.
We aim to provide medical, nursing, and dental students with the resources, training, and opportunities to advance their education and become the future healthcare workforce in the Gaza Strip. We do this using a hybrid learning model - an online learning platform supported by international faculty to supplement on-the-ground clinical teaching by local faculty and healthcare workers.
This program is entirely free for the students. It costs about USD 150 / month to produce One Future Healthcare Worker through this program.
OUR IMPACT
2100 Palestinian medical students are continuing their undergraduate education through GEM’s hybrid model. We have expanded to include nursing and dental programs. 200 new doctors graduated in Gaza in January 2025, and our first cohort of nurses is set to follow in summer 2025.
JOIN US, DRIVE THE CHANGE
Your support empowers the next generation of healthcare workers in Gaza to save lives and rebuild hope - one student, one patient, and one community at a time.
We need support from the global community to build awareness, forge partnerships, lead on new initiatives and projects, and help us in social media, marketing, and fundraising. Lend your skills for a sustainable impact on Gaza’s healthcare!
WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR
Palmed Academy is seeking a talented web designer to volunteer with us in building a new website. This is a great opportunity to showcase your creativity, build your portfolio, and contribute to an educational initiative that makes a real impact.
Our current website has a complex back-end interface that is difficult to manage. We are looking for a web designer to build us a new website using a no-code or low-code web design tool (e.g., Squarespace, or similar), ensuring it has a clean and simple back-end interface. Once built, the site should be easy to update by volunteers with no coding knowledge, so that content changes and updates can be managed smoothly by our team. This is a short-term project that should ideally be completed within 3-6 months, depending on the volunteer's availability.
Skills required
- Experience designing websites with no-code tools, e.g., Squarespace
- Strong eye for design, layout, and user experience.
- Be able to make the site responsive across devices.
- Create a clear handover process for future maintainers.
- Be collaborative, patient, and motivated by making a positive impact.
Be part of a dynamic and growing international volunteer team dedicated to making real change in the current and future healthcare in Gaza. As this is a volunteer role, hours and working arrangements are flexible to your availability. Be part of a supportive, mission-driven environment where your work truly matters.
The client requests no contact from agencies or media sales.

Are you aged between 16 to 25 years old? Do you want to make child poverty a thing of the past? Applications for our Youth Ambassador scheme are now open. We are looking to recruit 4 new Ambassadors.
Deadline for applications is 7th October 2025.
We are committed to developing and retaining Ambassadors that are representative of the diverse communities that we serve. We’re striving to build an inclusive workplace culture where everyone feels valued and diversity is celebrated by everyone.
We encourage people from all sections of the community to apply to be ambassadors. We particularly welcome applications from people living in Wales, Devon, Cornwall and the Midlands, young parents and people receiving benefits, because these groups are currently under-represented in our ambassadors.
Length of role:
One year minimum, with an option to continue on further. Ambassadors are aged between 16 and 25.
Role purpose:
To work alongside the existing Youth Ambassadors, to bring your own knowledge and experience, passion and enthusiasm to the group. These current Ambassadors have recently published this report about the impact of the cost of living crisis on 16 to 25 year olds. From this the Ambassadors have been campaigning to address differences in pay between younger workers and older workers. Ambassadors also work to support the work of the Coalition in other ways including attending meetings, working with member charities.
Other work as part of this role could include:
• Writing blogs for the website
• Developing surveys and conducting research
• Speaking to the media (we will provide training, and there is no need to do this if you don’t want to)
• Meeting MPs
• Speaking at events
Time Commitment and payment: This is flexible, you can do as much or as little as you like. We generally have a one hour meeting a month, and will organise a summer in-person meeting. Between that you may spend a couple of hours a month working on projects that interest you. Youth Ambassadors are remunerated for their time spent volunteering at a rate equivalent to the London Living Wage. This can either be with money via a bank transfer or with vouchers. We do not provide payment for taking part in media interviews, to ensure you never feel like you have to do these.
What’s in it for you? You will have the opportunity to work alongside a likeminded group of young people, who all want to ensure no child in the UK is growing up in poverty. We provide you with training on areas like campaigning and public speaking, you can find out how charities work, and we can use any existing skills and talents you have like drawing, video making etc. to influence MPs.
Thank you!
