Community fundraising manager volunteer roles
Are you passionate about health justice? Medact is seeking new Trustees to help oversee our governance and support our work.
About Medact
Medact organises the health community to work towards a world in which everyone is able to live healthy, dignified lives, supported by political and economic systems that centre health justice. Our priority work areas are some of the most pressing threats to health and wellbeing, including ending state violence, housing & energy justice, and migrant access to healthcare. Medact seeks systemic solutions to major social problems, and is unafraid to hold decision-makers to account. We launched our new five-year strategy at the end of 2025, embedding our vision for how we win and how we grow.
We’re member-led, and our membership spans a range of people who work in health, including nurses, doctors, midwives and clinical researchers, as well as people from the wider health community. If you share our vision and passion, why not join our Board and help us fight for health justice?
About the role
As a Trustee, you will provide guidance, governance and final sign-off on major decisions on behalf of our membership. As Board members, our Trustees are collectively responsible for the governance of the organisation in line with the requirements of the Charity Commission. Trustees also contribute to the development of Medact's strategy and participate in a range of other activities to support the Director and staff with our work.
There are four planned board meetings per year, which are hybrid, and it is expected that each Trustee will attend most Board meetings. Trustees are also sometimes asked to give their views or sign off on issues between Board meetings if an issue cannot wait. It is hoped that each Trustee will have the capacity to use their unique skills to support the team more broadly with Medact’s work.
Acting as a Trustee is a voluntary role but reasonable travel expenses can be paid.
Who we are looking for
We would like to widen the diversity on the board by encouraging applications from grassroots campaigners, members of communities affected by the issues Medact campaigns on, those working with the third sector on similar issues, and from racialised, religious and other minorities.
Our current Board brings a broad range of skills, but we recognise that we do not yet reflect the diversity of the health community. There are also specific types of experience and expertise we would like more of on the Board. In particular, we are looking for potential Trustees with one or more of the following attributes:
-
Lived experience of an issue that Medact campaigns on, for instance the Hostile Environment, the health impacts of economic or housing injustice, the health impacts of armed conflict or UK security policies
-
Experience as a frontline health worker of any sort, preferably current
-
Legal and safeguarding expertise
-
Fundraising expertise, particularly individual giving or major donor fundraising
-
Human resources expertise
We hope all Trustees will:
-
Share our vision for a fairer and safer world, and our analysis of the transformational change needed to get closer to it
-
Approach Board discussions and conversations with the team with an open mind, able to listen to and genuinely engage with others’ views
-
Display collaborative behaviours which promote harmony and good team working which supports Medact to be an effective, well-governed organisation
Previous experience on a charity board or in another governance role is useful but by no means essential. If you are interested in becoming a Trustee but aren’t sure you have the right skills and experience, or would like an informal conversation with an existing board member before applying, please get in touch.
Timeline
Applications are open until 9am on Monday 4th May.
Interviews for Trustee positions will be conducted on a rolling basis during the application period.
We aim to co-opt successful applicants to the Board at the next Board meeting in April 2026, and potentially at later Board meetings.
The client requests no contact from agencies or media sales.

Through volunteering as a Community Volunteer, you’ll get a huge sense of satisfaction and pride delivering an essential service. It’s great for you, great for your community and great for our nation, and it requires only a small commitment of your time.
Once we have completed your selection and screening for this role, we will provide you with an induction, as well as invite you to any necessary training sessions. We will also provide you with a supportive environment while you are volunteering with us. Information about our volunteer roles are included in the role descriptions.

Dive into lasting impact: Fundraise for East London Waterworks Park to create and shape natural swimming ponds, ecological habitats and community gardens
East London Waterworks Park is a volunteer-led charity that has won a 2024 New London Architecture award and raised £2m towards buying land from the Department for Education to transform the 14-acre Thames Water Depot on Lea Bridge Road on the border of Waltham Forest and Hackney, into a new biodiverse park with natural swimming ponds, forest schools and community spaces.
If you would like to help us develop our digital fundraising and our online offer, would you like to join our fundraising and communications teams in creating and implementing a strategy? We would love to hear from anyone with experience of fundraising online or with enthusiasm and a desire to test things out and learn as you go along. Recently we raised over half a million pounds through our Crowdfunder. Now we are looking to create a sustainable medium term income stream online.
The Fundraising Circle currently meets fortnightly on a Thursday evening on Google Meet and spends voluntary time outside of the meeting completing agreed tasks remotely. We understand that people may not have a lot of time to give, so we want to find volunteers who could give us one-off or ongoing strategic advice and support.
If you have experience in writing grants and funding applications, corporate fundraising, philanthropy, or any other aspect of fundraising, it would be great to hear from you.
We are keen fundraisers but we are lacking professional in digital fundraising expertise and experience and we would love your help and input. We would welcome one-off advice on the phone or in person, as well as longer term volunteers.
East London Waterworks Park is an exciting and ambitious project that offers many rewarding opportunities for our volunteers. You will have a significant impact on the creation of a new biodiverse community-owned park with free access natural swimming ponds and forest schools.
By leading fundraising projects that explore how diverse professionals (architects, ecologists, web developers, community researchers etc.) collaborate to shape community infrastructure, volunteers will directly contribute to the development of a park that truly reflects the needs and desires of the local community.
Without funding we won’t be able to make it happen. Your input will help us craft experiences that inspire, educate, and engage our service users, stakeholders, funders, and the general public, ultimately driving support for the park's mission and ensuring its long-term sustainability. So you will be directly contributing to the creation of a new biodiverse community-owned park with free access natural swimming ponds.

Organisation: Brooke - Action for Working Horses and Donkeys
Role: Trustees
Location: London / Hybrid
Remuneration: Unremunerated (expenses reimbursed)
Championing Animal Welfare at the Heart of Global Communities
Around the world, 100 million working horses, donkeys and mules power the daily lives of an estimated 600 million people. They carry food, water and goods, support small businesses and enable families to build more secure livelihoods. When these animals struggle, communities struggle with them - many face preventable suffering due to harsh environments, limited access to veterinary care and the pressures of poverty.
Brooke exists to change this. As the leading international charity dedicated to improving the welfare of working equines, we reach more than 1.4 million animals and 1.1 million people each year across South Asia, Africa and Central America. Our approach spans community-led programmes, systems strengthening, advocacy, and partnerships that help improve animal welfare and support community resilience.
As we prepare to launch our next global strategy, we seek two new Trustees, with expertise in Fundraising and in Safeguarding, to join our Board and guide Brooke through our next chapter.
For the Fundraising Trustee, you will bring broad-based senior fundraising expertise to support Brooke in continuing to diversify and grow our income sustainably. Acting as a strategic partner to the executive team, you will contribute to long‑term planning, investment decisions and supporter engagement, strengthening our financial resilience and global impact.
For the Safeguarding Trustee, your deep expertise will support the continual improvement of safeguarding across Brooke’s international operations. With significant experience in safeguarding within complex global or humanitarian contexts, you will support strong risk management, ethical practice and robust standards across our work worldwide.
For both roles, we seek individuals with a strong commitment to Brooke’s mission and values, sound judgement, and the ability to provide constructive challenge within an inclusive Board. First‑time trustees with relevant expertise are welcome.
If you want your professional insight to make a tangible difference - not only to animals, but to the people whose futures are bound to them - we would be delighted to hear from you.
For an informal and confidential conversation please contact:
- Stephanie Crossland
- Emily Nevins
Closing Date: Sunday 8th March 2026
