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.

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.

Build a Community of Connection with SUNSHINE
Loneliness is a quiet crisis. It doesn’t shout—it whispers. It hides behind closed doors, in empty chairs, in the silence of a phone that never rings. In London, thousands of people are facing this reality every day, and the emotional toll is devastating—impacting mental health, physical wellbeing, and the very fabric of our communities.
SUNSHINE is a brand new, 100% volunteer-run grassroots charity on a mission to change that. We’re creating spaces where people feel seen, heard, and valued. But to do that, we need a vibrant, empowered volunteer community—and that’s where you come in.
Why This Role Matters
Volunteers are the lifeblood of SUNSHINE. They’re the ones who bring warmth to coffee mornings, compassion to befriending calls, and energy to community events. As our Volunteering Development Manager, you’ll be the architect of this community. You’ll design systems, nurture relationships, and create a culture where every volunteer feels proud, supported, and inspired, feeling the SUNSHINE Experience deep within them that bonds us all as family.
This is more than recruitment—it’s about building belonging.

-
Develop inclusive, emotionally resonant volunteer pathways.
-
Create role descriptions and onboarding processes that reflect SUNSHINE’s values.
-
Foster a culture of appreciation, growth, and connection among volunteers.
-
Collaborate with programme leads to match volunteers to meaningful roles.

What You’ll Gain

The chance to build a volunteer community that transforms lives.
-
A role at the heart of a charity that’s rewriting the story of loneliness.
-
A team of visionary changemakers who value your voice and leadership.

UKuhamba
Ukuhamba produces lightweight, custom-made, and affordable prosthetics using 3D printing technology to improve the lives of amputees living with disabilities, restoring their independence and dignity.
Ukuhamba aims to address several social and environmental challenges such as:
- Limited access to prosthetic devices: Many individuals in Africa, particularly in rural areas, lack access to prosthetic devices due to high costs, limited infrastructure, and a shortage of trained personnel.
- Social stigma associated with disability: People with disabilities, especially amputees, often face social exclusion, stigma, and discrimination, which can lead to feelings of isolation, low self-esteem, and depression.
- Economic burden of disability:The lack of access to prosthetic devices can result in significant economic burdens on individuals and communities, limiting their ability to participate in education, employment, and community activities.
- Environmental impact of prosthetic production: Traditional prosthetic production methods can have a significant environmental impact, which Ukuhamba aims to mitigate by using recycled materials, such as plastic water bottles, in their 3D printing process.
Ukuhamba addresses social and environmental challenges in several ways:
- Increasing accessibility to prosthetics: They provide affordable, custom-made prosthetic limbs to individuals with physical disabilities, particularly in South Africa where access to these devices is limited. Currently, only about 30.5% of individuals in need have access to prosthetics.
- Reducing stigma associated with disability: By infusing fashion into their prosthetic designs, Ukuhamba aims to empower users to proudly showcase their prosthetics, challenging societal stigmas surrounding disability.
- Environmental sustainability: Ukuhamba utilizes recycled materials, such as plastic bottles, in their 3D printing process, reducing waste and promoting eco-friendliness.
- Empowering individuals with disabilities: Their prosthetic solutions enable individuals to regain independence, mobility, and dignity, allowing them to participate more fully in daily life activities and contribute to their communities.
- Promoting inclusivity: By providing low-cost prosthetics, Ukuhamba bridges the gap for underprivileged individuals who cannot afford these devices, fostering greater inclusivity and social equality.

We're looking someone with real SOCIAL MEDIA experience in promoting a fun-filled feature / documentary film we are currently developing about our wonderful CANCER RESEARCH SCIENTISTS. The movie is now almost complete and proceeds from the film's distribution will go to Cancer Research.
It's taken almost 4 years to shoot this movie and we are a small close group of filmmakers with compassion towards cancer sufferers. The film will be screened at BAFTA later in the year and TV interviews will follow but it's the Social Media area
we know little about.
If you are able to dedicate some of your time (We will of course pay moderate expenses) then we'd love to hear from you.

We are seeking new people to join our Board of Trustees to support the good governance of our charity. It is an exciting time to join us as we work to launch our new strategy from 2026; an important timeframe as we await a Government White Paper on SEND and consider how best to adapt our services to ensure we reach those who need us most.
Who we are
Founded in 1983, IPSEA is a leading national charity focussed on supporting families to ensure that children and young people with SEND receive the education they are legally entitled to. Since our formation, we have actively helped to improve the education experience of thousands of children and young people with SEND. We do this by providing free and independent legal advice and casework support, undertaking policy work and delivering training on the SEND legal framework.
Who are we looking for?
We wish to recruit a number of new trustees who are committed to our vision and values and who bring complementary skills to those of our current Board members.
Trustees are expected to gain an understanding of the organisation’s purpose, and to contribute their own expertise, ensuring IPSEA fulfils its objectives, and in accordance with our charitable objects and Articles of Association
Whether you’re an experienced trustee or wanting to take your first step at Board level, we are particularly interested in hearing from people with expertise and skills in one or more of the following areas:
- IT / Digital transformation / cyber security
- Volunteer management
- Local Authority / Education
- Disabilities
Please note: a lack of expertise in these areas does not mean that an application will not be considered.
Our Board should also reflect the communities we support. We would particularly like to hear from candidates from ethnic minority backgrounds, LGBTQIA+ people, under-served communities and disabled people, as well as those with lived experience of the SEND system, either as a child or as a parent/carer.
What we can offer you
- an in-depth induction programme, training and reimbursement of reasonable out-of-pocket expenses
- the opportunity to be involved in making strategic decisions and developing new skills
- the opportunity to apply your knowledge and experience to an important cause
- a buddying system for new trustees as you settle into the role
The expected time commitment is six trustee meetings per year (meetings are held on weekdays in central London or at IPSEA’s office in Takeley, Essex with the option to join some meetings virtually), usually one strategic planning/training day and some other ad hoc time for occasional meetings and events.
