Change communications manager volunteer roles

BIND is a collection of projects and people that reduce food waste by bringing people together to create change. We design and deliver projects across sectors that push boundaries and achieve results. We believe change is created not by a handful of people doing sustainability perfectly, but by everyone doing a little something. Find out more about our values and purpose on our website. Our work is split between Magic Hat, Eat Smart and food waste partnerships.

Magic Hat is Newcastle City Centre’s first and only coffee shop, kitchen and events venue dedicated to impacting the UK’s wider food waste problem - positively. Our chefs design menus on-the-day, every day, made from food that's far too good to be wasted. Fresh ideas for ingredients at their best. Magic Hat also operates a volunteer programme, a PAYF shop, an events programme and a hireable meeting space/kitchen. Magic Hat's profits go to supporting Bind's other projects in food waste prevention. After 5 years of trading in Newcastle City Centre, our lease was terminated for the building to get redeveloped. We are currently seeking out a new premises for Magic Hat and designing for how we can continue to challenge in its next iteration.

Eat Smart is a successful primary school educational programme born in the NE of England designed to inspire children and schools to reduce food waste and build sustainable food systems. We deliver engaging resources and learning experiences that empower schools and pupils to have more ownership of their kitchens/dinner halls, improve student wellbeing, and have increased environmental awareness. 

Since 2018 Eat Smart has enabled 70 schools in North East England to rescue their food waste by over 25%, equivalent to saving 6,000 meals worth £13,000 per school, per year, and our expansion to other areas of the UK has already begun. With an ever-growing data set and credibility for school food waste prevention, we have increasing potential to affect school food policy and deliver food waste prevention interventions on a national level.

Bind is expanding its work to ensure food waste prevention, not just redistribution, is at the heart of our mission. Bind works in partnership with businesses, local authorities and community groups to help them reduce their food waste, and reduce their food bills by using surplus food in their kitchens. We are well recognised in the North East and lead various partnerships of public, private and voluntary sector organisations, tasked with reducing food waste at a strategic level.

Are you ready to build a legacy that saves lives?

In England today, too many men are fighting silent battles. They are navigating the complexities of mental health and personal growth without a compass or a tribe. At MINDSET, we are changing that narrative. We believe that through brotherhood, community, and intentional self-improvement, every man can reclaim his strength and purpose.

We have the vision. We have the momentum. Now, we need the voice.

The Volunteer Opportunity: Communications Officer (Volunteer)

As our first-ever Communications Officer, you won’t just be "posting on socials"—you will be the architect of our energy. You will lead the charge in creating an exciting buzz around MINDSET, raising awareness for men’s mental wellbeing, and ensuring our mission is heard in every corner of England. You are the one who will take our message and make it a movement.

Who You Are

We aren't looking for a CV; we’re looking for a character. We need a storyteller who is:

• A Creative Catalyst: You have an entrepreneurial spirit and a knack for creating "buzz." You know how to capture attention and turn it into engagement.

• A People Person: You understand the power of connection. You can speak to men from all walks of life with authenticity, empathy, and a touch of wit.

• A Person of Action: You don’t wait for the news—you make it. You have the passion and dedication to elevate MINDSET from a brand-new charity to a household name.

• A Believer: You are deeply committed to men’s mental health and believe that personal growth should be a conversation every man is proud to be part of.

The Volunteer Role

Working directly with the Founder and the Board, you will lead our external voice. You’ll manage our digital presence, create high-impact content, and build relationships that raise our profile. Your goal is simple but massive: make sure every man in England knows that MINDSET is here for him.

Why Join Us?

This is a chance to be there at the "Day One" of something massive. You will have a blank canvas to build a brand identity that is bold, heart-felt, and modern. You’ll gain incredible experience in PR and brand management, but more importantly, your words could be the reason a man reaches out for help for the very first time.

"A man’s mindset is the foundation of his future. Help us tell the story that changes the future for men across England."

If you have the creative spark to lead and the heart to serve, we want to hear from you. Help us turn the tide on men’s mental health by putting MINDSET on the map.
