Would you like to support people in their time of need?

At our sanctuary (Finsbury Park, North London) for those in suicidal crisis, we offer a potentially transformative experience with a once-only 5 day (4-night) stay at our non-medical, family-style house. Through respite, time and space for reflection and compassionate and nurturing care, our Volunteer Befrienders and Lead Befrienders support an opportunity for the revival of hope and resilience.  

Volunteer Befrienders are key to Maytree and work alongside Lead Befrienders to provide an open and containing space for people who are feeling suicidal. 

Befriending is as it sounds: sitting alongside our guests as a friendly, compassionate and non-judgemental companion. Through active listening and human warmth our volunteers enable our guests to feel supported, explore their feelings in a confidential setting and discuss their options in their own way and in their own time. This face-to-face support is not therapy; it is about being calm and committed and not afraid of difficult subjects, including suicide.  

The Coroners' Courts Support Service (CCSS) is a registered Charity whose trained volunteers give emotional and practical support to bereaved families and other witnesses attending an inquest.

We need volunteers to provide emotional support and practical help to bereaved families, witnesses and others attending Inquests at Coroners' Court. Our volunteers at court also provide help and assistance to the Coroners' Officers, as and when required.

We are looking for reliable, supportive people with excellent communication skills. A mature and calm attitude is needed in order to be able to talk to people during a sometimes bewildering and emotional experience. Volunteers must be willing to undergo a period of observations and shadowing, as well as attend a 3 day training course. A minimum commitment of one day (9:00am - 5:00pm) per fortnight is asked for. Training and mentoring is provided and travel expenses to the court are reimbursed.

New volunteers should possess good communication and listening skills and the ability to empathise with people they support.

Blute
Blute provides AI-powered mental health support and data analytics to combat the catastrophic dropout rates among healthcare students, such as the 40% of UK nursing students who do not complete their training. The startup addresses the critical global deficit of healthcare workers, which is driven by students suffering emotional crises in silence during high-pressure clinical placements due to a lack of accessible support.

This issue perpetuates a cycle where understaffed hospitals offer poor training, leading to further trauma. Blute breaks this cycle by offering a conversational AI companion for judgment-free reflection and immediate guidance, acting like a supportive friend.

The crucial innovation is transforming the essence of these private interactions into actionable data. This allows universities to identify high-risk students and intervene with targeted support, transforming struggling students into resilient professionals. By doing so, Blute directly supports multiple UN Sustainable Development Goals, including strengthening the health workforce (Goal 3) and ensuring supportive, inclusive healthcare training (Goal 4).

Flexible Role (3-10 hours/week) | Help Launch Our Solution to the Healthcare Crisis
Are you an expert in Higher Education (HE) ready to use your sector knowledge and network to drive real social impact?

Blute is an early-stage startup, building an essential solution to combat the alarming student dropout rate in healthcare—a crisis fuelling the NHS staffing shortage. Our platform is designed to boost student wellbeing and retention, and it will be ready to launch soon.

Your Mission: Securing Our First Pilots

Your primary goal is to establish mutually beneficial pilot collaborations with universities, ensuring our solution is deployed effectively upon launch.

Key Responsibilities Include:

• Strategic Outreach & Pipeline: Identify and build a pipeline of target universities, prioritising those most in need (e.g. based on continuation rate data). You will conduct outreach to secure exploratory meetings.
• HE Context & Needs Assessment: Use your deep knowledge of the HE sector to assess potential partners. You must understand the university's budget cycles, procurement process, risk appetite and their specific goals (e.g. retention vs. satisfaction) to ensure Blute is a tailored solution.
• Pilot Foundation & Setup: Be involved in the initial setup of new pilots, helping lay the groundwork for success. This includes supporting stakeholder meetings (like gaining IT approval) and coordinating baseline data gathering.

Who We're Looking For

Youth On The Rise
We train peers to deliver digital, life-skills, menstrual support and career programmes that mobilize communities.

Africa faces youth unemployment that fuels poverty, crime and substance abuse. Primary schools lack computer literacy, widening the digital divide and limiting opportunity. Girls miss school because of period poverty and stigma, while boys face violence, poor life skills and reintegration after detention. Learners also make tertiary choices with poor information. High HIV prevalence demands health education and blood donations. Communities experience unmanaged waste and degraded public spaces.

A systemic, peer-led model under Youth On The Rise that turns risk into opportunity. We run KidsInTech (foundational digital skills), A Man To Remember (life-skills plus sport and reintegration for boys), Girls’ Dignity & Wellness (period support and confidence), and Career Guidance clinics (informed pathways). Each programme uses train-to-lead toolkits, facilitator run-sheets, safeguarding, and impact trackers so schools, churches, and youth clubs can deliver independently. Partnerships—Ministry of Education permissions, Machabeng International College volunteers, local churches for meals, and Kick4Life for certificates—reduce costs and expand reach. Media campaigns, HIV education, blood drives, and city clean-ups link learning to visible community outcomes.
