�� Calling Social Impact Influencers – Help Us Change How The UK Gives ��

We’re building something different.

Unify Giving allows donors to directly support individuals experiencing homelessness, domestic violence, and financial crisis — with full transparency, dignity, and trust. 100% of donations go straight to the person in need.

But to reach more people, we need voices. Real voices.

That’s why we’re building our Social Impact Influencer Squad — a network of mission-driven creators and storytellers who want to use their platforms to help us grow, reach new donors, and expand our recipient base across the UK.

✅ Who we’re looking for:

• Individuals with 5k+ engaged followers (Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, YouTube etc.)

• Passionate about social impact, homelessness, domestic violence support, or financial inclusion

• Want to use your voice to help real people — directly

✅ What you’ll do:

• Help share our mission with your community

• Highlight stories of individuals we support (all fully anonymised and approved)

• Be part of a new model for giving — one that puts dignity and transparency first

✅ Why it matters:

Every share helps us expand, onboard more charity partners, and reach individuals who urgently need support. This isn’t just charity — it’s a whole new infrastructure for giving.

If this sounds like you, we’d love to chat ��

Design the Feeling of Belonging. Shape the Look of Hope.

SUNSHINE is a new grassroots charity tackling loneliness in London. We’re building spaces where people feel seen, heard, and valued—through coffee mornings, digital inclusion, fitness, and befriending programmes. But before anyone walks through our doors, they’ll meet us through a poster, a flyer, a social post.

We’re looking for a Graphic Designer to volunteer some time to help us craft the visual language of SUNSHINE: one that speaks of warmth, dignity, and human connection.

Why This Role Matters

Design is how people feel us before they meet us. As our Graphic Designer, you’ll shape the imagery, colours, and layouts that invite people in—from volunteers and donors to those we serve. You’ll help us build a brand that feels like a hug, a spark, a welcome.

This is a vital role for someone who believes visuals can move hearts—and mobilise action.

What You’ll Do

• Design flyers, posters, social media graphics, and digital assets for campaigns and programmes.

• Develop a cohesive visual identity that reflects our values and mission.

• Collaborate with other volunteers to ensure messaging and design work hand-in-hand.

• Create templates and toolkits that empower volunteers to share SUNSHINE’s story.

• Help us make every visual feel like an invitation to belong.

What You’ll Bring

• Experience in graphic design (professional or volunteer), with a portfolio that shows emotional impact.

• A strong sense of visual storytelling and brand cohesion.

• Familiarity with design tools (e.g. Canva, Adobe Creative Suite, etc.).

• A heart for grassroots change and a belief in the power of beauty to uplift.

What You’ll Gain

• A central role in shaping the look and feel of a charity that transforms lives.

• The joy of seeing your designs spark connection, action, and hope.

• A team of visionary changemakers who value your creativity and care.

• Legacy, purpose, and the chance to design something that truly matters.

Let’s design a charity that feels like home. Let’s be the sunshine.

JOIN OUR TEAM

BE THE SUNSHINE IN PEOPLE'S LIVES.

THIS IS AN UNPAID VOLUNTEER ROLE.

About White Ribbon Alliance UK

White Ribbon Alliance UK is an intersectional feminist charity working to end gender-based violence and advance gender equity in sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR). We focus especially on marginalised and underrepresented communities.

Through research, advocacy, training, and systems change, we centre the voices of women, girls, and trans and non-binary people across the lifecycle of sexual and reproductive health. Our programmes are grounded in intersectional feminist values and led by lived experience.

About the Role

We are recruiting Campaign & Content Volunteers to help us deliver two major campaigns this autumn:

• Big Give Women & Girls Match Fund: A national matched-funding campaign to raise £20,000 to confront medical misogyny in sexual and reproductive healthcare.

• Free From Harm awareness campaign: Spotlighting the impact of obstetric violence on women, girls, and pregnant people, especially those from marginalised communities.

Volunteers will play a key role in creating and sharing social media content, amplifying campaign messages, and helping us engage supporters during this critical fundraising and awareness window.

What You’ll Be Doing

You’ll join a small, supportive team and contribute in ways that suit your skills and capacity. Tasks may include:

• Designing graphics and visual content using Canva

• Drafting or editing captions for social posts (optional)

• Helping schedule and share campaign content across platforms

• Amplifying posts and messages during campaign week (8–15 October)

• Creating simple thank-you or update posts to keep momentum going

• Supporting with community outreach and sharing materials locally

We’ll provide all content briefs, guidance, and check-ins so you’re never working in isolation.

What You’ll Get From It

• Practical experience in digital campaigning and content creation

• Clear briefs and supervision from WRA UK staff

• The chance to see your work published on national campaign platforms

• Credit on campaign posts if you’d like to be named

• Flexible, remote working on your own schedule (3–4 hours per week minimum)

• A meaningful role supporting justice in maternity and reproductive healthcare

• A reference or LinkedIn recommendation upon successful completion

Who This Role Is For

We’re looking for people who are:

• Familiar with Canva (essential)

• Familiar with Microsoft PowerPoint, Google Slides, or similar (essential)

• User of Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn and/or TikTok (preferred)

• Comfortable using or learning social media scheduling tools

• Interested in digital campaigning and creative storytelling

• Passionate about equity in gynaecological care and reproductive justice

• Organised, responsive, and able to meet agreed deadlines

• Team players who enjoy collaboration in a small, supportive group

Preferred but not essential: Experience creating social media content or digital campaign materials.

Diversity & Inclusion

We highly value diversity and strongly encourage applications from individuals in underrepresented communities, including but not limited to: Black, Asian, disabled, chronically ill, LGBTQ+, and retired individuals.

Residency and Legal Eligibility

• Applicants inside the UK must already have the right to volunteer. We are unable to offer visa sponsorship.

• Applicants outside the UK may volunteer if laws in your country of residence permit you to undertake the tasks described here with an overseas charity.

Use Your Creativity to Combat Loneliness with SUNSHINE

Loneliness is one of the most painful experiences a person can face. It’s not just about being alone—it’s about feeling invisible. In London, thousands of people are quietly struggling with isolation, and the toll it takes on mental health, confidence, and wellbeing is profound.

SUNSHINE is a brand new, 100% volunteer-run grassroots charity on a mission to change that. We’re building a community of connection, warmth, and hope—and we need a Marketing Manager who can help us shine.

Why This Role Matters

Marketing isn’t just about promotion—it’s about storytelling. It’s about reaching someone who feels forgotten and letting them know they matter. It’s about inspiring volunteers, donors, and communities to rally around a cause that touches every corner of society.

As our Marketing Manager, you’ll be the emotional heartbeat of our outreach. You’ll craft campaigns that stir empathy, ignite action, and build a brand that radiates compassion.

What You’ll Do

• Develop and lead emotionally impactful marketing strategies across digital and print.

• Create compelling content that highlights the urgency of loneliness and the power of connection.

• Collaborate with graphic designers and programme leads to promote services and recruit volunteers.

• Build SUNSHINE’s presence on social media, job boards, and community platforms.

• Shape our voice and visual identity to reflect hope, dignity, and inclusion.

What You’ll Bring

• A passion for storytelling and social impact.

• Experience in marketing, communications, or branding (professional or volunteer).

• Creativity, empathy, and a strategic mindset.

• A desire to be part of something meaningful from the very beginning.

What You’ll Gain

• The chance to build a charity brand that truly matters.

• A community of kind, driven changemakers.

• The joy of knowing your work is helping people feel seen, heard, and loved.

• Experience, purpose, and legacy.

Let’s make loneliness a little less lonely. Let’s be the sunshine.

Fostering Connections. Enhancing Wellbeing. Transforming Lives.

InStudents

A global social enterprise that empowers students to lead local projects, dismantling educational barriers to ensure equitable access to opportunities for all.

• Lack of Access: Students in rural and underserved regions lack quality career guidance and opportunities equivalent to their privileged peers.

• Employability Gap: Students from less prestigious universities often struggle to gain the real-world work experience and confidence needed for employment.

• Ineffective Aid: Many top-down educational solutions fail because they lack crucial local context, cultural understanding, and input from the communities they aim to serve.

We are building a global, student-led movement for educational equity, empowering local leaders to solve local challenges.

• Equal Opportunities Project (EQOP): We deliver free, career-focused courses to students in underserved regions using accessible technology like WhatsApp. The content is co-created with UK university and corporate partners.

• Impact Champions Project: We are establishing a global network of student-led societies on university campuses. Each society identifies and tackles local education issues with our support, creating a sustainable, "locally led, globally connected" model for change.

Hello! We believe that a student's potential should be determined by their ambition, not their background. Right now, millions of students in underserved communities are being left behind, lacking the guidance and opportunities they need to thrive.

InStudents is changing that. We empower students to become leaders who solve educational challenges within their own communities, from running career courses via WhatsApp in rural India to building a global network of on-campus "Impact Champions".

We're looking for passionate people to help us scale this student-led movement. Whether you have skills in marketing, content creation, project management, or mentoring, your time and expertise can directly help a student discover a new career path or gain the confidence to lead. Join us and help build a world where every student has the chance to succeed.

Education Equity Content Strategist (EQOP)

Volunteer Role Description (remote, unpaid)

Imagine creating a course that a student in a remote village can access on a simple smartphone, a course that opens their eyes to a future they never thought possible. Our Equal Opportunities Project (EQOP) has already reached over 10,000 students in rural India, and that’s where you come in.

In this role, you will:

• Research and design new, career-focused mini-courses on topics from financial literacy to social entrepreneurship.

• Write clear, engaging, and inspiring content specifically tailored for a youth audience and delivery via accessible tech like WhatsApp.

• Collaborate with our university partners to transform their expert knowledge into powerful, bite-sized learning experiences.

Your words will directly bridge the opportunity gap for thousands of students, providing them with the knowledge and confidence to pursue their dreams.
