Help Bring Joy, Connection & Community Spirit to Events Across London

Reports To: Founder & CEO

About SUNSHINE Charity

Loneliness is one of the most profound challenges facing our communities — but together, we can change that.

SUNSHINE Charity is a new, volunteer‑powered organisation dedicated to reducing loneliness and social isolation by creating warm, joyful, inclusive spaces where people can meet, connect, and feel part of something bigger.

We believe that connection is a human need. We believe that joy is a form of care. We believe that community can change lives.

As we prepare to launch our first activities across London, we are building a friendly and enthusiastic Events Team to help bring SUNSHINE into the heart of local communities.

The VOLUNTEER Opportunity

As an Events Team Member, you will be one of the friendly faces of SUNSHINE — helping us run small community events, attend local fairs and festivals, staff our stalls, and engage warmly with the public.

You won’t just be handing out flyers or setting up tables. You’ll be helping create moments of connection — the spark that encourages someone to join an activity, meet new people, or take their first step out of loneliness.

Your presence will help build a London where everyone feels welcomed, valued, and part of a community that cares.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Supporting the organisation of small‑scale community events

  • Attending local fairs, markets, and community days as a SUNSHINE representative

  • Setting up and packing down stalls, tables, banners, and materials

  • Greeting visitors with warmth and enthusiasm

  • Talking to members of the public about SUNSHINE’s mission and activities

  • Encouraging sign‑ups, sharing information, and answering questions

  • Helping create a friendly, inclusive atmosphere at every event

  • Supporting basic event logistics (materials, refreshments, sign‑in sheets, etc.)

  • Working closely with other volunteers and the SUNSHINE team

  • Bringing positivity, energy, and kindness to every interaction

Who We’re Looking For

You don’t need events experience — just friendliness, enthusiasm, and a love of connecting with people.

We’re looking for someone who:

  • Is passionate about community, connection, and helping people feel less alone

  • Enjoys chatting with people and making them feel welcome

  • Is confident engaging with the public at events

  • Is reliable, proactive, and happy to muck in

  • Can represent SUNSHINE with warmth, kindness, and positivity

  • Is comfortable using email and basic digital tools

  • Can work well as part of a small, supportive team

  • Shares SUNSHINE’s values of inclusion, joy, and compassion

Experience in events, customer service, community engagement, or public‑facing roles is helpful — but absolutely not essential.

Why Volunteer With SUNSHINE?

This role offers the chance to:

  • Be part of launching a brand‑new community charity

  • Represent SUNSHINE at events across London

  • Help create joyful, welcoming spaces for people who feel lonely

  • Build confidence, communication, and community engagement skills

  • Gain hands‑on experience in events and outreach

  • Meet like‑minded volunteers and be part of a supportive team

  • Make a real, human difference — one conversation at a time

The Difference You’ll Make

Behind every person who discovers SUNSHINE is someone who welcomed them at a stall. Behind every new participant is someone who encouraged them to join. Behind every moment of connection is someone who created the opportunity.

As an Events Team Member, that someone will be you.

Your contribution will help ensure that people who feel lonely can find warmth, belonging, and hope — not just once, but again and again.

You will help bring people together, spark joy, and build community.

Join Us

If you believe in the power of connection, kindness, and community, we would love to hear from you.

Help us build a future where no one feels alone. Become a SUNSHINE Events Team Member and help bring connection to life — one conversation, one smile, one event at a time.
