Executive volunteer roles in Edinburgh, scotland

HELP US LAUNCH MINDSET — AND CHANGE MEN & BOYS’ LIVES IN LONDON

We are ideally seeking volunteers from London but welcome volunteers across England, who can attend meetings and carry out their duties as a Trustee virtually.

We’re MINDSET Charity, a bold new start‑up charity in London on a mission to equip and empower men and boys with the tools they need for better mental health.

We’re building something powerful — a stigma‑free space where men and boys can learn real, non‑clinical and non‑therapeutic practical skills that strengthen resilience, boost wellbeing and create lasting change. Through motivational interviewing, solution‑focused approaches, self‑improvement practices, life coaching, mentoring and more, we will help men and boys build better habits, better mindsets and a better quality of life.

And right now, we’re getting set up and ready to launch — and we need TRUSTEES to join us at MINDSET.

YOUR IMPACT WILL BE HUGE

You’ll be joining at the very beginning — helping shape the foundations of an exciting new charity in London. You will be influential in building our strategy, strengthening our governance, and putting the systems and processes in place that will allow us to register as a charity and launch MINDSET within the next few months.

Your leadership, ideas, networks and experience will directly accelerate how quickly we can open our doors and begin supporting men and boys long before crisis point.

As a volunteer-led start-up charity, this is a hands on role initially until we are fully established, so Trustees who join us need to be aware that you will have to get your hands dirty and get engaged in setting up our systems, processes and operational aspects until we have recruited a team to come in and take on the operational duties delegated to them by the Board of Trustees.

This is your chance to be part of something meaningful at the very start — shaping a charity that will genuinely change lives across our capital.

WHAT YOU CAN HELP WITH

We’re searching for passionate, dedicated and experienced individuals to join our founding Board and take on one of our key roles:

• Chairperson

• Vice Chairperson

• Treasurer (UK‑qualified accountant)

• Secretary (Company Secretary)

• Trustees with experience in any of the following areas:

  • Service or programme development

  • Fundraising, grant writing or donor relations

  • Mental health or wellbeing (especially for men and boys')

  • Safeguarding

  • Community engagement

  • Governance

  • Digital, tech or communications

  • Youth work or education

  • Charity start‑ups, early‑stage growth, or scaling up.

  • Or other areas that would benefit a new start up charity working with men and teenage boys around mental health, wellbeing and personal growth.

WE’RE NOT JUST LOOKING FOR ANYONE

We’re especially interested in people who:

• thrive on the challenge of setting up a new charity

• have entrepreneurial spirit and enjoy building something from scratch

• aren’t afraid to get stuck in, hands‑on, alongside volunteers

• bring energy, ideas and a collaborative mindset

• want to help create a charity that will make a real difference in men’s lives

If you’re someone who loves shaping, building and leading — this is the perfect moment to join us.

JOIN TEAM MINDSET

Helping Men & Boys Build Better Lives.

LONDON

ParalympicsGB’s vision is: Through Sport, inspire a better world for disabled people.

We pursue world-leading performance at the Paralympic Games and leverage that to drive social impact and inspire a better world for disabled people. Our Non-Executive Directors are committed to creating the best performance environment possible while also being committed to improving the lives of disabled people and promoting inclusion, diversity, equity, and accessibility for all.

We’re seeking candidates with the right experience to support us in our journey towards the LA 2028 Paralympic Games Cycle and beyond. We are particularly interested to hear from people with significant finance experience who are chartered accountants, and candidates with significant business leadership experience..

This voluntary role would bring a leadership perspective to the work of the Board in these areas and provide guidance and support to the relevant teams at ParalympicsGB. It would strongly suit someone with experience as a senior strategic leader. Previous non-executive experience is desirable but not essential.

If our vision excites you, if you have relevant experience and expertise, and if you can commit your time to providing guidance, support and constructive challenge, we’d welcome your application to the role.

Full details on the role and how to apply can be found in the Applicant Information Pack.

Here’s 5 reasons you’ll love to volunteer in our shops:

1. It's fun
2. It's flexible
3. You'll learn and share skills
4. You'll be making a difference
5. You'll work with a great team

We’re passionate about what we do, and love giving second-hand clothing a chance of going to a good home. Our shop teams are key to raising vital funds for our work and act as incredible advocates for the rights of children both in the UK and around the world.

Please note that this is a voluntary, unpaid role, based in the UK. We are unfortunately not able to provide support with visa requests. Candidates must be over 16.

Volunteering in the shop

Mary's Living & Giving for Save the Children is unique - a vibrant result of the generous gifts of local individuals and companies being turned around by the skills and passions of volunteer teams, to create a destination retail experience. Selling womenswear, menswear, shoes, and bags to household goods, our shops can be found in the London villages and bring in vital funds for Save the Children.

Our Edinburgh Stockbridge Shop Volunteers are in the middle of it all, and there’s plenty to get involved with. You might be sorting and pricing stock, engaging with customers, ringing items through the till, creating fantastic window displays or keeping our shop floor looking organised.

It’s up to you how much you commit. We have volunteers who support for a couple of hours a week and some do more. Many people volunteer either a morning or an afternoon each week - this is something that will be discussed at the selection stage, after you’ve applied.

Why volunteer with Save the Children?

In over 110 countries, we support children to transform their lives. By providing live-saving short-term help, and pushing for deep-rooted social change, we help children take, their future into their own hands. We believe every child has the right to learn. Every child should have good food to fuel their bodies and every child should have medicine when they're sick. 

Skills and experiences we seek

We welcome applications from people with a wide range of skills and experiences. You don’t need any retail or shop experience as full training will be provided. What’s important to us is that you are a team player, open to learning and to follow our policies as well as be an excellent representative for Save the Children.

We know that our shop teams are stronger when they are inclusive and representative of their communities. Everybody can make a real difference. People come to us for all sorts of reasons, from all backgrounds, and we will do what we can to find a role that works for you.

What happens next?

After you’ve filled in an application, we will invite you for an informal trial shift. It’s a great opportunity to visit the shop, meet some of our existing volunteers and have a go at some of the tasks that you would be supporting with as a shop volunteer. Hopefully allowing you to get a feel for the role and make sure it’s for you. We also ask for a couple of references (these don’t have to be formal workplace ones, just someone who has known you for over 6 months and isn’t related).

VOLUNTEER CHAIR OF TRUSTEES WANTED

Could you help turn a big idea into a charity that changes lives?

SUNSHINE Charity is on a mission to smash loneliness and social isolation through positivity, human connection, community and belonging — bringing SUNSHINE into people's lives.

We're a brand-new grassroots charity with a big ambition.

And we're looking for someone very special.

1. A Chair.
2. A leader.
3. A mentor.
4. A sounding board.
5. A champion.

Someone who knows what good charity governance looks like — but also understands that great charities aren't built by sitting around a boardroom table.

• They're built by people.
• They're built through energy, relationships, ideas, teamwork, determination and action.

And that's where YOU could come in.

WE'RE LOOKING FOR AN EXPERIENCED TRUSTEE TO BECOME OUR CHAIR

SUNSHINE's current Board is made up of enthusiastic people who are passionate about our mission — but this is their first experience of being charity trustees.

That's why we're looking for an experienced trustee and confident Chair who can help guide, support and develop the Board as SUNSHINE grows.

WHAT WILL YOU DO?

As Chair, you'll help provide the leadership, direction and confidence that our growing charity needs.

You'll help:

1. LEAD THE BOARD

Bring trustees together, create focus and ensure the Board operates effectively.

2. DEVELOP OUR TRUSTEES

Help our first-time trustees understand their responsibilities, develop their confidence and become an effective governing team.

3. KEEP US ON TRACK

Help us balance our big ambitions with good governance, responsible decision-making, financial sustainability, safeguarding and accountability.

4. CHALLENGE & SUPPORT

Ask the difficult questions when necessary — but always constructively and with SUNSHINE's mission at the heart of decisions.

5. WORK WITH OUR FOUNDER

You'll work closely with our Founder to help turn the vision for SUNSHINE into a sustainable, properly governed and genuinely impactful charity.

The Founder has a huge amount of passion and ideas for SUNSHINE — but is also juggling a lot.

We're looking for someone who can become a trusted leadership partner and sounding board, helping turn ideas into priorities, decisions and action.

6. HELP DRIVE THE TEAM

SUNSHINE is going to need people who make things happen.

You'll help create a culture where trustees, volunteers and leaders feel:

• SUPPORTED.
• CHALLENGED.
• CONNECTED.
• VALUED.
• ACCOUNTABLE.
• INSPIRED.

THIS ISN'T A "TITLES & BOARDROOMS" ROLE

We're not looking for someone who simply wants another trustee position on their CV.

We're looking for;

1. Someone who genuinely wants to build something.
2. Someone who gets excited by the idea of helping a small grassroots charity grow from the ground up.
3. Someone who can bring experience without bringing ego.
4. Someone who can lead without needing to control everything.
5. Someone who can challenge without crushing enthusiasm.
6. Someone who can see the potential in people.
7. And someone who believes that loneliness shouldn't be something people simply have to put up with.

We're particularly interested in someone who has:

• Previous charity trustee experience (Experience as a Chair, Vice Chair or senior trustee would be fantastic).
• A good understanding of charity governance and trustee responsibilities.
• The confidence to chair effective Board meetings.
• Experience supporting or developing fellow trustees.
• Strong communication and relationship-building skills.
• The ability to challenge constructively.
• Strategic thinking — while still being willing to roll up your sleeves.
• A genuine interest in tackling loneliness and social isolation.
• The energy and enthusiasm to help a young charity grow.

But above all...

WE WANT SOMEONE WHO GETS SUNSHINE.

Someone who believes that positivity matters.

That connection matters.

That community matters.

That belonging matters.

And that sometimes, something as simple as giving someone somewhere to go, someone to talk to and people to belong with can make an enormous difference.

WHY JOIN SUNSHINE?

Because you won't be joining an established organisation where everything has already been decided.

• You'll be joining at the beginning.
• You'll have the opportunity to help shape:

OUR CULTURE.
OUR GOVERNANCE.
OUR PROGRAMMES.
OUR VOLUNTEER COMMUNITY.
OUR PARTNERSHIPS.
OUR FUTURE.

• You'll help create the foundations that could allow SUNSHINE to reach thousands of people across London in the years ahead.

And you'll have the opportunity to help a group of passionate first-time trustees become a confident, capable and effective Board.

COME SHINE WITH US.

Global Health Access Trust is inviting expressions of interest from experienced philanthropists, entrepreneurs, family-office professionals and senior business leaders who may be suited to joining the GHAT Strategic Philanthropy & Impact Council.

The Council is a selective advisory pathway for people who can bring experience, relationships and strategic thinking to GHAT’s long-term public-benefit work — and, where they choose, help open doors or contribute resources.

Global Health Access Trust (GHAT) develops, funds and coordinates defined projects that advance health, relieve illness and preserve life for the public benefit. Our work brings together professional and clinical expertise, human capability, responsible technology, essential infrastructure, trusted local relationships and accountable funding.

What you could contribute

• Offer strategic perspective on impact, growth and long-term sustainability
• Share relevant experience of building, funding or supporting serious organisations and initiatives
• Help GHAT think critically about philanthropy, partnerships and sustainable public-benefit funding
• Open doors to relevant people or institutions where you judge it appropriate

Who this could suit

We welcome expressions of interest from philanthropists, founders, entrepreneurs, investors, family-office and private-client professionals, and senior business leaders with an interest in health access and sustainable public benefit.

This is not a routine volunteering role. Council involvement is selective and designed for people able to contribute high-level judgement, experience or relationships periodically rather than undertake regular operational tasks.

The opportunity can usually be undertaken remotely from any country.

Expressing an interest does not confer Council membership. Membership is selective and follows review and appropriate due diligence by Global Health Access Trust.

The opportunity is voluntary and unpaid. There is no salary, fee, employment benefit or entitlement to expenses.

How to apply

Applications are handled through the Global Health Access Trust website. When you click to apply, you will be taken to GHAT’s Strategic Councils & Advisory Networks section, where you can review this opportunity and submit an expression of interest.

Global Health Access Trust (GHAT) develops, funds and coordinates defined projects that advance health, relieve illness and preserve life for the public benefit. Good governance, safeguarding, accountability and responsible stewardship sit at the centre of how that work is developed and delivered.

• Help maintain accurate meeting records and action points
• Track agreed actions and follow-up
• Support orderly document management and version control

Job Purpose:

To actively identify, locate, and surface potential real-world stories, individuals, and lived experiences that align with the organisation’s mission, ensuring a continuous pipeline of high-quality, relevant story leads for the Story Intelligence Team.

This role exists to function as the organisation’s primary “frontline discovery engine,” scanning a wide range of public sources—including media platforms, social networks, interviews, documentaries, podcasts, books, advocacy spaces, and community forums—to uncover individuals who have either publicly shared their experiences or are visibly positioned within ongoing social, cultural, or institutional narratives.

The Research Story Scout is responsible for recognising not just individual stories, but also broader story ecosystems, including repeated patterns of lived experience, underrepresented voices, emerging testimonies, and whistleblower disclosures that may not yet have been formally documented or widely circulated.

A key purpose of this role is to convert scattered public information into structured, actionable story leads that can be passed efficiently to the Outreach Team for ethical and appropriate engagement.

The role also ensures that potential stories are identified early, before they become widely saturated or lost in mainstream attention cycles, enabling the organisation to engage responsibly, respectfully, and at the right stage of the individual’s willingness to share.

Ultimately, this role ensures the organisation maintains a consistent flow of credible, relevant, and timely story opportunities by continuously scanning the public landscape and translating discovery into structured, usable intelligence for outreach and engagement.

Help Make Wishes Come True 

Every pound you help raise goes directly towards granting wishes for children facing critical illnesses, creating hope, joy, and unforgettable memories for families who need it most. 

What Makes This Role Different? 

This is a flexible, ad hoc, volunteer-led role that fits around your lifestyle and commitments. There are no set fundraising targets or fixed weekly hours. You decide how you'd like to support Make-A-Wish and how much time you can give.

You can: 

- Organise an activity independently
- Fundraise with friends, family or colleagues 
- Team up with other local Community Wish Makers 
- Support an existing Make-A-Wish fundraising campaign or event 
- Whether it's a bake sale, quiz night, sponsored challenge, workplace fundraiser, school activity or local business partnership, you'll be helping raise the funds needed to grant more wishes

We'll provide resources, guidance and support to help you succeed

What We're Looking For 

You don't need fundraising experience—just enthusiasm, initiative, and a desire to make a difference. 

We're looking for people who are: 

- Confident building relationships and engaging others 
- Self-motivated and proactive 
- Creative in finding fundraising opportunities
