Hear from some of our existing Lead Volunteers…

Stuart, Lead Volunteer at our North Shields Mind Shop

Why did you want to become a Lead Volunteer?

I chose to volunteer at Mind, specifically because of the cause – I support the charity in what they want to achieve. Mind also supported me through the lockdown period during the pandemic, which I found very isolating.

I’ve volunteered for Mind for 20 years - I started volunteering for Mind in 2005. At the time, I had a full-time job, but I wanted to try volunteering. I’ve volunteered in a number of Mind shops, including Wallsend, Whitley Bay, Gateshead (which was where I became a Lead Volunteer) and finally, North Shields.

I wanted to become a Lead Volunteer to gain more experience, which I can then pass onto others. I now undertake key holder duties in my current shop. It was a little scary to begin with, but there was plenty of support from the wider region and I feel really proud to now be doing the role.

What knowledge and skills have you gained or developed whilst being in the Lead Volunteer role?

I’ve developed my technology skills – I’ve learnt how to use the till, how to use the computer including emails and Microsoft Teams, how to complete eLearning and the new Gift Aid hub. I struggled a bit before with technology, so it’s really helped me to be exposed to it more. I’ve also developed cash handling skills and how to deal with external contractors. My confidence has really grown and I’m also now able to cover local stores too!

What do you enjoy most about being a Lead Volunteer?

I really enjoy giving amazing customer service and working with the team of staff and volunteers – we have lots of fun whilst we work! The shop has a great atmosphere. My Shop Manager has said she couldn’t do without me! I would really recommend for anyone to come and volunteer with Mind – it’s a great way to meet new people.

Lead Volunteer at our Turnham Green Mind Shop

Why did you want to become a Lead Volunteer?

I wanted to become a Lead Volunteer because I wanted to take on more responsibilities and keep myself as productive as possible. By taking on more responsibilities, I’m able to support the wider team with certain activities within the shop. It’s also helped me become less focused on my myself and my own problems. I suffer from low self-esteem and felt that by becoming a Lead Volunteer, it would help strengthen my self-worth.

What knowledge and skills have you gained or developed whilst being in the Lead Volunteer role?

As I have never worked in retail, becoming a Lead Volunteer has given me more insight into how the retail industry and how Mind Retail operates day-to-day. I have become more patient and not as isolated as before. My communication skills have improved too.

What do you enjoy most about being a Lead Volunteer?

Certain customers are confiding in me about their mental health. I find it great to be able to assist and provide some support. We all just need an ear to listen…

It’s also great to be able to make decisions too. The team I work with at the shop are very supportive and understanding – they look after me and I feel like a belong to a small family. The team really understand that our shops are not just shops! They’re a place where everyone, including those with mental health problems, can feel safe and listened to.

We’re Mind, the leading mental health charity. We won’t give up until everyone experiencing a mental health problem gets support and respect. We provide advice and support to empower anybody experiencing a mental health problem and we campaign to improve services, raise awareness, and promote understanding.

Our volunteers are a fundamental part of our shops. Any time which they volunteer at our shops, help us be there for more people who are experiencing a mental health problem.

THE LYONIC SCOTS CALL FOR A VOLUNTEER MARKETING & COMMUNICATIONS LEAD 

Shape the Voice of a Modern Clan. Inspire a Movement. Lead the Story of a People.

Across Scotland and around the world, the Lyonic Scots are rising — a living Clan Community built on heritage, unity, creativity, and pride. As our Clan grows, so does our need for a powerful voice. A storyteller. A strategist. A leader.

Today, we call for a UK‑based Volunteer Marketing & Communications Lead — someone ready to guide our message, amplify our presence, and help bring the spirit of the Lyonic Scots to the world.

This is more than a role. It is a creative mission, a leadership opportunity, and a chance to shape the identity of a modern Scottish Clan.

YOUR MISSION

As our Marketing & Communications Lead, you will become the architect of the Clan’s public voice — crafting the stories, campaigns, and messages that inspire people to join, engage, and belong.

You will:

• Develop and lead our marketing and communications strategy

• Shape the Clan’s tone, voice, and storytelling across all platforms

• Oversee social media content, engagement, and community growth

• Create compelling campaigns that attract new members and volunteers

• Support recruitment drives, cultural initiatives, and Clan events

• Collaborate with our Graphic Designer and Council to build a unified brand

• Ensure consistent, inspiring messaging across all channels

Your leadership will help the Lyonic Scots be seen, heard, and remembered.

WHY YOU MUST BE UK‑BASED

For coordination, governance, and alignment with UK community‑group standards, this role requires someone living in the United Kingdom. The work is fully remote — but your location ensures smooth collaboration and compliance.

WHY THIS ROLE MATTERS

The Lyonic Scots are more than a community — we are a movement built on:

• Heritage and identity

• Creativity and culture

• Belonging and kinship

• A shared mission to build something meaningful

Your words, campaigns, and ideas will shape how the world sees us. You will help build a brand that inspires pride, unity, and connection.

This is your chance to lead with creativity. To tell a story that matters. To help build a legacy that lasts.

REMOTE • FLEXIBLE • IMPACTFUL

This role is fully remote and designed to fit around your life. Whether you contribute weekly or monthly, your impact will echo across the entire Clan.

STEP FORWARD. FIND YOUR VOICE. LEAD OUR STORY.

• If you believe in heritage…
• If you love storytelling…
• If you want to help shape the identity of a modern Scottish Clan…

We welcome you.

Join the Lyonic Scots. Lead our message. Inspire our future.

Your voice. Our Clan. One legacy.
