Men’s Self‑Improvement Programme Volunteers
Help Build the Frontline of a New Movement for Men
At MINDSET, we’re not here to tweak the system — we’re here to rebuild it. Men across England and Wales are stuck between long waiting lists, clinical models that don’t fit, and a culture that tells them to “man up”. We’re changing that.
We’re launching a brand-new Men’s Self‑Improvement Programme, and we’re looking for committed volunteers to help shape, deliver, and grow the work that will transform men’s lives.
The Mission
1. Build the Blueprint

Help us challenge outdated narratives about men’s wellbeing and spark a national conversation about growth, strength, and self‑leadership.
4. Evolve the Model
Gather real feedback, test ideas, and help us refine the programme so it always meets men where they are.
The Vibe
We’re informal, direct, and relentlessly positive. No jargon. No judgement. No fluff.
You’ll have:
-
Freedom to create
-
Space to lead
-
A real role in shaping a national movement from day one
This is hands-on, meaningful, legacy-building work.

Would you like to help tackle loneliness, one conversation at a time?
Loneliness and isolation can have devastating effects on a person’s mental and physical health. We are a registered charity providing a pathway of support to alleviate the hurt and distress, and the impact on mental and physical health, caused by loneliness and social isolation.
We are seeking Volunteer Drivers, to provide transport in their own vehicle, bringing Friends (people who use our services) to and returning them home from an Archway supportive social group. Occasionally we organise Archway Fundraising activities or events where may be asked to provide transport to an Archway Fundraising activity or event. Some Archway Friends (people who use our services) are unable to attend a supportive social group independently, mainly due to physical barriers to public transport. Transport delivered by volunteers enables Friends to access the supportive social group, in turn alleviating loneliness. The groups may be the only opportunity for Friends to meet with others. Each Friend is invited to one group per month either in Oxford or Abingdon so transport volunteers usually offer one trip per month or more if they like.
We ask volunteers to think of this as a longer term volunteer role due to the training and time we take in order to give our volunteers, and Friends, the very best service. You will also need to consider occasional time spent in training for your role and for continuous development.
For all our roles:
Due to our Safeguarding regulations, unfortunately we are only able to accept applications from UK residents.
Enhanced DBS checks for working with vulnerable adults (formerly called criminal records bureau checks) which we will organise (no cost to this) and two references are required.
For any roles involving driving Archway Friends, we will need to see evidence of insurance and driving license as well as MOT and tax documents for the vehicle to be used.
We will happily cover out of pocket expenses (eg mileage).
We provide training relevant to the roles as well as ongoing supervision, guidance and support for all volunteers.
We are a registered charity providing a pathway of support to alleviate the hurt and distress, caused by loneliness and social isolation.
