This organisation is scheduling interviews as applications come in. They're ready to hire as soon as they find the right person. Don't miss your opportunity, apply now!
Would you like to support people who have served in the Armed Forces? You don’t need a military background, just patience, and an ability to get on with people from different backgrounds and age groups. If so, this could be the role for you.
What is a Visitor?
SSAFA Visitors provide support to isolated people living at home or in residential care. Whilst a friendly chat about the old days over a cup of tea is an important aspect of the role you will also be able to recognise any other support needs and explore how to link your client into their local community.
Why do we need you?
We’ve been supporting the Armed Forces community since 1885. Our clients come from all backgrounds and age groups and may have served in WW2 or in a more recent conflict like the Falklands or Afghanistan.
There are SSAFA branches throughout the UK and overseas who support local volunteers to deliver services to veterans, serving personnel and their families. Some branches are divided into smaller divisions to ensure the best local service delivery. Each branch has a team of volunteer caseworkers, support volunteers, executive roles, and fundraisers.
With the gift of time and a listening ear you can improve someone’s quality of life for far longer than the hour or so you might spend with them. We need you to join your local SSAFA team to help us to help more people!
When would you be needed and where would you be based?
The essential part of the role is visiting clients, so you will need a driving licence and access to a vehicle or another way to travel to meet clients at home or elsewhere.
Some volunteers will visit more people than others. Whilst you will visit a client on a regular basis for a period, you will not be developing the kind of relationship where you would provide personal care, handle money or support someone in an emergency. SSAFA can help clients to arrange other types of support if needed.
What would you be doing?
- Contacting clients and arranging to meet them regularly at their home or care home for uninterrupted conversation.
- Letting the divisional secretary know of any concerns for your or the client’s safety.
- Arranging for a SSAFA caseworker to assess the client for other support as required.
- Chatting, making a cup of tea, playing cards, looking at photo albums, military mementos etc
- Helping your client to think about ways to reduce their isolation and support them to put these into practice.
- Keeping in touch with your branch so they know your availability.
- Keeping up to date with training and SSAFA news so that you are best able to support clients.
- Volunteering within the standards and values of SSAFA including observing our policies such as the Volunteering policy and Data Protection policy (these will be covered in your training and local induction.)
The remit of this role may change over the next 12-18 months depending on the outcome of a trial currently being undertaken.
What could you gain from this volunteering role?
- Support people in your community with a military background using your patience, time, and empathy.
- Support from your local SSAFA branch and the wider SSAFA community
- Experience, training, and skills that you can highlight on your CV and in job interviews.
- Better physical and mental health – studies show that volunteers live longer and experience lower levels of stress and depression.
What training and support would you receive?
- Role specific training to prepare you for your voluntary role – confidentiality and boundaries, friendship, and befriending. This training would take approx. 4 hours.
- Mandatory on-line training modules to complete at home, so you are up to date on how to keep clients, their families safe and personal information safe.
- Local Induction
- Access to the Volunteer Support Team based at our central office.
- Reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses
- Volunteers will be covered by SSAFAs Public Liability Insurance whilst carrying out the role.
What are we looking for?
- Friendly and approachable people with good listening skills, patience, and a cheerful attitude
- Good spoken English
- Ability to be respectful and non-judgemental with clients, their family, other agencies and SSAFA colleagues.
- Ability to keep within the boundaries of the role with regards to friendship, finances etc.
- Reliable attitude, contact clients promptly, keep regular appointments, update the branch regarding your availability.
- Ability to maintain confidentiality and keep information safely (within SSAFA policies)
- Willingness to travel by public transport or car to appointments with clients.
We welcome volunteers of all backgrounds, abilities, races, sexual orientations, socio-economic backgrounds, and of all faiths and none. SSAFA are committed to making reasonable adjustments to support volunteers with disabilities, so they have access to the same opportunities and experiences as volunteers who do not.

Unlocking Potential. Transforming Futures.
In the heart of London, a movement is rising - one that refuses to let postcode or circumstance define a young person’s future. We are REMIX, a youth social mobility charity on a mission to "remix young lives" from disadvantaged backgrounds across London, by breaking down barriers and build up belief.
We exist to ignite confidence, nurture resilience, and equip young people with the life skills they need to thrive - not just survive. Through transformative experiences, inspiring role models, and unwavering support, we help young Londoners discover the power of their own potential.
Our mentors don’t just teach - they guide, uplift, and empower. They are the champions who walk beside each young person, helping them rise above challenges and step boldly into their future.
Whether it’s a first job interview, a public speaking opportunity, or simply the courage to dream bigger, we’re there - cheering, coaching, and celebrating every step forward.
We’re calling on:
A volunteer who is creative, and detail-oriented to join us as our Graphic designer. We need someone who understands how to connect with a youth audience through visuals. We have a logo we love already but we need to create a positive youth brand around it, that helps us get recognised and away on our journey to empowering young people across London.
In this vital set-up phase, you will be instrumental in:
-
Developing a Brand Guidelines / Styling Guide: Collaborating with our Founder to build a comprehensive visual identity guide. This includes defining our brand colours, typography, imagery style (including photography and illustration direction), logo usage, and overall design principles to ensure a cohesive, youthful and impactful look.
-
Ensuring Brand Consistency: Helping to apply the new brand identity across all our communications, ensuring everything we produce feels distinctly REMIX.
-
Visual Storytelling: Translating REMIX's mission and impact into compelling visual narratives that resonate with our audiences.
This is a voluntary role to help us establish our core brand identity and initial materials. We are flexible and can work around your availability, including the hours you can support us with. We're also ok if you're only able to support us with only one of these items.
Help us design the visual identity that will inspire and empower us to "remix young lives" across London!
Together, we’re not just changing lives - we’re rewriting futures.
Join us. Be the difference. Help us build a London where every young person has the chance to rise.

· Integrity and honesty.
· Good, independent judgement.
Experience or interest in some of the following areas:
· • Charity management, governance, compliance, law, or the dedication to learn about governance and what it takes to be a Trustee
What difference will you make
As part of our board, you will help to support and develop the charity and set its strategic direction. You will have the opportunity to offer your unique skill set, experience and enthusiasm to help us to achieve the charity’s mission and goals:
To foster a society in which social anxiety is widely understood, where there is easy access to appropriate information, support and treatment so that no one has to face social anxiety alone.
Board meetings and projects
We are a friendly board and we hold our meetings monthly online in the evening, typically on a Tuesday at 7pm to 8:30pm.
We would hope that Trustees can contribute to some other charity tasks and projects as the need arises.

This is a unique opportunity to use your skills for a purpose that truly matters. Your dedication will directly help us give young people the opportunities and experiences they won't get anywhere else.

Wanted: A Creative Visionary to Define a New Movement
Tired of working on projects that don't make a real difference? Ready to use your design superpowers for good?
Urban Youth isn't just another charity. We're a brand new youth community designed to change young people's lives in London. We're talking about giving them happy memories, creating lasting friendships, and building the essential skills they'll need for adulthood. We want to provide opportunities and experiences they simply won't get anywhere else.
But to do that, we need to be seen, heard, and remembered. We need a visual identity that screams "cool," "modern," and "inspiring"—one that speaks directly to young people aged 11-19 years old.
That's where you come in.
We're not looking for a quick logo. We're looking for a volunteer Graphic Designer who wants to be a founding creative force behind Urban Youth. You won't just design our brand; you'll help define our future.
What You'll Be Creating:
-
Our Signature Logo: A powerful, youthful, and modern mark that will become synonymous with positive change for young people in London.
-
A Complete Brand Guide: You'll help us develop the visual language we'll use across all our platforms—from our website and social media to our promotional materials and merchandise.
-
The Foundation of Our Visual Story: Every graphic, every colour, every font choice you make will help us attract the young people and community partners we need to succeed.
This is a unique opportunity to build a portfolio with real-world impact. You'll gain experience working with a dynamic start-up, collaborating with passionate founders, and creating a brand that has the power to inspire thousands. Your work will be a key part of our journey from a small start-up to a registered charity that changes lives.
Are you ready to design a legacy?
Help us create a brand that empowers a generation.
