Volunteer Call: Help Us Reset the MINDSET!!!

Men’s mental health is in crisis. The decline is real, it’s fast, and it’s costing lives, families, and futures. But we believe in a different story — one where men stand together, grow stronger, and build lives that are fuller, healthier, and more connected.

We’re launching a brand-new charity, called MINDSET Charity, set to go live in 2026, and right now we’re at the foundations stage.

This is where you come in.

What We’re Building:

• 1:1 Mentoring — real conversations, real growth.

• Group Workshops & Brotherhood Circles — spaces where men can share, learn, and support each other.

• Online Resources — tools, guides, and challenges to help men take charge of their wellbeing.

• Community Activities — from fitness to creative projects, we’ll build resilience together.

This isn’t therapy. It’s about mindset, skills, and self-improvement — giving men the tools to thrive, not just survive.

Who We Need:

We’re looking for pioneers, builders, and believers. Volunteers who want to help lay the foundations of something bold and lasting. Whether you’ve got skills in organising, mentoring, design, outreach, or simply a passion for changing the narrative around men’s mental health — we need you.

Why Join?

Because this is more than volunteering. It’s being part of a movement. A brotherhood. A reset. You’ll help shape a charity from the ground up, and together we’ll change lives.

The Call:

If you’ve ever thought, “I want to make a difference, but I don’t know where to start” — this is it. Step in now, and help us build the future.

When applying, please let us know, how you would like to help us at MINDSET, so we have an idea of your interests, skills and experience.

Join us. Reset the Mindset. Be part of the launch team.

To achieve national recognition and trust, we need a strong, professional, and consistent visual brand. We are seeking a talented Graphic Designer who can help us elevate our image from the ground up.

The Opportunity: Define Our Look

We have an initial logo concept created using AI, but we need a professional touch to refine it, ensure it's print/web-ready, and establish the visual rules for our brand. This role can be a high-impact, one-off project or an ongoing, flexible commitment.

  • Primary and secondary colour palettes (with HEX, RGB, and CMYK codes).

  • Logo usage (clear space, minimum size, approved variations).

  • Imagery style and tone.

Phase 2: Ongoing Design Support (If Interested)

• Digital Content: Design compelling social media assets (posts, stories, profile banners), website banners, and branded imagery.

• Print Materials: Develop professional print materials, including event roller banners, information booklets/brochures, and promotional flyers.

• Templates: Create branded templates (e.g., for presentations, emails, and simple documents) for the wider team to use.

Your Essential Skills & Tools

• Design Proficiency: Expert knowledge of design software (e.g., Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign, or equivalent professional tools).

• Brand Expertise: Experience in developing or working with corporate/charity brand guidelines.

• Portfolio: A strong portfolio demonstrating clean, professional design work and an eye for modern, accessible aesthetics.

• Remote Ready: Ability to work independently, manage deadlines, and communicate effectively via email/video calls.

• Mission Alignment: An understanding of and passion for the mission of supporting men's mental wellbeing is highly desirable.

Why Volunteer with MINDSET Charity?

• Build a Brand: This is a chance to put your mark on a brand from its infancy and create the visual identity that will be seen nationwide.

• Flexible Commitment: Choose whether you want to focus solely on the crucial Brand Guide project or join us for ongoing, flexible support that fits your schedule.

• Purpose: Use your creative skills to directly impact a charity dedicated to addressing a vital social issue.

If you are ready to design the look of our national movement, we want to hear from you!

To Apply: Please send a brief email outlining your interest, your commitment preference (one-off or ongoing), and a link to your online portfolio.

humane drug policies. Our vision is a world where drug policy contributes to safer and
healthier societies. We want to recruit a treasurer, to oversee income and expenditure of the
organisation, to help drive forward our work.

This is an exciting time in drug policy. Rapid changes in approach are occurring in the UK and
internationally. Transform has a long history of shaping these changes and seeking to ensure
that reform reduces harm, improves social justice and protects public health. Our Anyone’s

Shannon Trust fulfils an unmet need around adult learning, supporting people who’ve fallen through the cracks in formal education.

Area coordinators support and coordinate a team of prison volunteers. They help recruit and induct new volunteers and are the first point of contact for advice and support.

We are looking to recruit up to four new Trustees to join our Board. The Board meets a minimum of four times a year in person — twice in Birmingham and twice in London — with an annual away day, which may be residential. Meetings are held during the working day and typically last around 6 hours, including breaks.

Expertise and knowledge and experience 

We are particularly looking for the following experience for new trustees; 

• Finance
• Social Care
• Campaigning
• Fundraising
• Safeguarding 

Your Impact 

As a Trustee, you will help shape Sense’s strategic priorities, hold leadership to account, and act as a champion for the values and mission of the organisation. You will also have the opportunity to engage with Sense’s services directly, visit local centres or shops, and see first-hand the difference we make. 

Access and Inclusion 

We are committed to making this opportunity fully accessible. Sense will cover all reasonable adjustments required to enable disabled people to fully participate as Trustees. We recognise that needs may change over time, and we are prepared to provide ongoing support and flexibility. 

We strongly encourage applications from disabled people and women, as well as individuals from other underrepresented backgrounds, to help us build a more diverse and inclusive Board. 

If you’re ready to use your experience, insight or passion to help break down barriers and make a real difference, we would love to hear from you. 

About Sense  

Every disabled person should have the opportunity to connect with others and be included in the world. Which is why we’re here, in people’s homes, centres and communities, focusing on the things a person can do, not what they can’t. We celebrate the moments of connection that bring more joy to life. Together, we always find a way, no matter how many barriers a person might face.  

Sense is a leading disability charity with extensive knowledge and expertise in delivering personalised, creative and flexible support for disabled people with complex needs. Our tailored approach ensures that every person is empowered to live fully at every stage of life.   

This is an exciting time to join Sense as we continue to deliver our bold strategy, guided by our vision of a world without limits for disabled people with complex needs.
