Volunteer from home and help more people through pregnancy sickness and hyperemesis gravidarum feel less alone

Pregnancy Sickness Support is a registered UK charity working to improve care, treatment and support for those affected by nausea and vomiting in pregnancy (NVP) and the severe form of the condition, Hyperemesis Gravidarum (HG). For many people this is one of the hardest and loneliest parts of pregnancy. Our social media is often the first place someone finds out they are not alone.

We are looking for a creative  Social Media Volunteer to help us tell that story well. You would help shape warm, accurate and engaging content across Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn and X, and, if it interests you, help us explore and launch a presence on TikTok. Most of your creative work would be in Canva, using our templates and brand.

What the role involves

• Creating warm, accurate posts and simple graphics in Canva that share support, information and lived experience across our channels
• Helping plan and schedule content across Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn and X
• Helping us explore and launch a presence on TikTok, if that is something you would enjoy
• Keeping an eye on comments and messages, replying kindly to straightforward ones and passing anything sensitive or distressing to the staff team
• Spotting awareness days, campaigns and moments that matter to our community and suggesting content for them
• Sharing simple updates on what is landing well, so we can learn what our audience values

About you

You do not need to be a marketing professional. We are looking for someone who cares about our cause, writes clearly and warmly, and can handle a sensitive subject with care. You would be comfortable on social media, happy to learn our tools and brand, and able to organise your own time so the volunteering fits around your life.

What we hope you can bring 

• A genuine interest in our cause and a caring, sensitive approach to content about pregnancy, illness, loss and mental health
• Confidence using one or more social media platforms (Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn or X), whether in a personal or work setting
• The ability to write clearly and warmly for a general audience, with good attention to accuracy
• Reliability and the ability to organise your own time around the volunteering
• A willingness to follow our brand, safeguarding and confidentiality guidance, and to check content with the team before posting where needed

Helpful extras 

• Making simple graphics or short videos, for example in Canva (templates and guidance are provided, so this is not essential)
• An interest in or experience of creating TikTok content
• Lived experience of hyperemesis gravidarum or pregnancy sickness, or a close understanding of it. This is valued, not required
• Any experience of content planning, scheduling tools or basic social media insights
• Any experience of volunteering with, or working for, a charity

What you would gain

• The chance to make a real difference to people going through one of the hardest parts of pregnancy
• Hands on experience across live social channels, including the opportunity to help launch a new TikTok presence
• An induction, a named contact for support, and Canva templates and brand guidance
• Reasonable out of pocket expenses reimbursed
• A reference after a reasonable period of volunteering with us

How to apply

This is a remote, voluntary role. We review applications as they arrive, so please do apply when you are ready.

Equal opportunities

Pregnancy Sickness Support welcomes volunteers from all backgrounds and communities. We particularly welcome people with lived experience of pregnancy sickness. We are committed to treating all volunteers fairly and with respect, and to making our roles as accessible as we can.

Mission 44 is a charitable foundation launched by Sir Lewis Hamilton in 2021 to create a fairer, more inclusive future for young people. We work to ensure every young person can thrive in school and access great careers, particularly in STEM (science, technology, engineering and maths).

Lewis' own journey to Formula 1 required him to overcome barriers linked to race, class and opportunity. In 2020, he established the Hamilton Commission to understand why motorsport was not representative of wider society. Mission 44 builds on the evidence and recommendations of the Hamilton Commission. While informed by the Commission, its remit extends beyond motorsport, focusing on wider education and employment systems to expand opportunity at scale.

Working across the UK, the US and Brazil, we invest in the organisations closest to young people from underserved communities, and we use our platform to influence the systems that hold too many young people back.

Diversity is at the heart of Mission 44. It is fundamental to how we create change. We therefore see it as essential to bring different ways of thinking to our Board of Trustees, and are now seeking 3-4 new Trustees to join our Board and be part of realising our ambitions to scale opportunities for young people. 

One of these will be a Young Trustee, aged 18 – 30, and we are open to backgrounds.  We will provide you with additional guidance to help you navigate board responsibilities, contribute fully to discussions and develop your governance and leadership skills. For wider Trustee roles, backgrounds will ideally include one of the following areas:

· The education or youth sectors

· Communications and influencing

· Safeguarding experience

· Operational leadership experience (e.g. HR, IT, data management) 

· Organisational growth/ international expansion 

· Fundraising 

· AI 

· Creative industries

· Humanitarian sector

· Experience in intergenerational philanthropy 

Interested candidates must have the time available to commit to supporting Mission 44 as we enter our next phase of growth, making a thorough personal contribution and being willing to share your insights.   Above all, you must be committed to our mission that every young person can thrive in school and access great careers. 

To learn more and apply, please download the appointment brief below. 

Closing date:    13 September 2026

PBP interviews:                       17 – 24 September 2026

Mission 44 interviews: 6 October and w/c19 October 2026

First Board meeting: 8 December 2026

We know that when people from different backgrounds work together, it generates more diversity of thought and better ideas. We want to attract the broadest range of talented people onto our Board of Trustees so that it comprises a rich mix of personal as well as professional perspectives, positions and experiences to enable us to grow and learn better together.

We are therefore particularly interested in candidates from underrepresented groups, including people of colour, people with disabilities or candidates from the LGBTQ+ community.
