We're recruiting on behalf of our partners at MINDSET.

VOLUNTEER COORDINATOR (MINDSET Charity)

Build the Team. Build the Culture. Build the Movement.

MINDSET is a bold new preventative mental fitness charity for teenage boys and men in London — launching this November. We’re creating a modern, high‑energy, stigma‑free space where men learn the habits, systems, and psychological tools to stay strong long before crisis hits.

To make this mission real, we need a Volunteer Coordinator who can build the beating heart of our organisation: our volunteer team.

If you’re passionate about people, culture, and creating environments where others thrive — this is your moment.

THE ROLE: VOLUNTEER COORDINATOR (Volunteer)

We’re looking for a proactive, organised, people‑focused leader who can build our volunteer programme from the ground up. You’ll help shape the culture, recruit the team, and create the systems that make MINDSET a place volunteers want to be part of.

You’ll lead on:

• Setting up our volunteer programme from scratch.

• Recruiting our first wave of volunteers for November launch.

• Designing a warm, structured onboarding experience.

• Creating a team‑spirit culture rooted in energy, accountability, and purpose.

• Supporting volunteers as they deliver our 12‑week mental fitness programmes.

• Building simple, effective systems for communication, scheduling, and engagement.

• Championing the MINDSET ethos — modern, bold, stigma‑free, and focused on growth.

Your work will directly shape the experience of every volunteer who joins us. You’ll be the person who sets the tone, builds the community, and ensures our team feels supported, valued, and inspired.

WHO WE’RE LOOKING FOR

We’re looking for someone who:

• Has experience of managing volunteers, HR or recruitment.

• Loves building positive, energetic team cultures.

• Is organised, reliable, and great at follow‑through.

• Enjoys connecting with people and spotting potential.

• Can create simple systems that make volunteering easy.

• Wants to help build a charity from the ground up.

• Can commit a few hours a week between now and November.

• Believes in preventative mental fitness and early intervention.

If you’re the kind of person who naturally brings people together, you’ll thrive here.

WHY JOIN MINDSET?

1. Because you’ll shape the entire volunteer experience.

You’re not stepping into an existing system — you’re building it.

2. Because our culture is modern, energetic, and inspiring.

Think Gymshark, Huel, MyProtein — not a traditional charity bureaucracy.

3. Because your work will change lives.

Every volunteer you recruit will help boys and men build habits that keep them strong.

4. Because you’ll be part of a founding team.

Your leadership will influence how MINDSET grows for years to come.

WHAT YOU’LL GET

• A chance to build a volunteer programme from day one.

• Real leadership experience in a fast‑moving charity start‑up.

• A supportive, passionate team who value your ideas.

• Flexible volunteering you can fit around your life.

• The satisfaction of knowing your work is helping prevent silent suffering.

Purpose of the Role:

To inspire and guide girls aged 16–18 at the Baytree Centre through a focused six-session mentoring programme with a professional female role model. The Career Champions programme pairs young people with mentors working in their field of interest, for example, a girl aspiring to become an architect is matched with a practising architect, to provide insight into career pathways, develop professional skills, and build confidence.

- Support mentees in setting short- and long-term career-related goals, providing guidance on how to achieve them.

- Foster a positive and supportive relationship that builds the mentee’s confidence, motivation, and resilience.

- Where appropriate, provide insights into workplace culture, networking, and professional development.

- Maintain communication with the programme coordinator to track progress and address any concerns.

- Adhere to Baytree Centre policies and safeguarding procedures.

Skills and Qualities Required:

- Professional experience in the relevant career field, with the ability to share industry-specific knowledge.

- Strong interpersonal skills to build trust and rapport with young people.

- Patience, empathy, and the ability to encourage and motivate. - Good communication skills, with the ability to explain career pathways and options clearly.

Commitment:

- Six one-hour mentoring sessions to be completed within a maximum of three months.

- Sessions to be scheduled Monday to Friday between 4pm and 6pm.

- Flexibility to deliver sessions face-to-face or online, depending on the mentee’s needs.

Benefits:

- Opportunity to make a meaningful difference in a young person’s future career journey.

- Develop mentoring, coaching, and communication skills.

- Share expertise and inspire the next generation of female professionals.

- Be part of a supportive and empowering volunteer community.

This role is open to female applicants only (Equality Act 2010: Schedule 9: Occupational Requirements). Applicants must be 18 years or older.

BUILD SOMETHING THAT CHANGES MEN’S LIVES IN LONDON

MINDSET Charity

Trustee Recruitment (Volunteer Roles)

Chair • Treasurer • Fundraising Trustee • Safeguarding Lead • Strategy & Development Trustees

WE’RE NOT LOOKING FOR TRADITIONAL TRUSTEES. WE’RE LOOKING FOR BUILDERS.

MINDSET is a bold, preventative mental fitness charity for teenage boys and men in London. We don’t do clinical therapy. We don’t sit on couches. We build systems, habits, and psychological tools that help men stay strong long before crisis hits.

We exist because too many good men have been breaking in silence. Our founder lived that reality — losing his father and close friends to battles they were never given the tools to fight. Their stories became our mission: no more preventable exits. No more silent suffering. No more men fighting alone.

Now we’re building a movement. A training ground. A new standard for male mental fitness.

And to launch this charity with strength, focus, and integrity, we need a small, high‑energy, high‑impact Trustee Board who can help us build MINDSET from the ground up.

THE ROLES WE’RE RECRUITING

1. Chair of Trustees

A steady, strategic leader who can guide our early direction, keep us aligned with our mission, and help us build a strong, safe, compliant organisation. You’ll be the anchor of our governance and the champion of our preventative mental fitness vision.

2. Treasurer

A numbers‑driven, detail‑focused trustee with UK accounting experience who can help us build lean, efficient financial systems. You’ll ensure our budgets, reporting, and financial planning are rock‑solid as we grow.

3. Fundraising & Grants Trustee

A proactive connector who can open doors, build partnerships, and secure funding. You’ll lead our grants strategy, donor relationships, and fundraising campaigns to fuel our 12‑week programmes. You'll also lead our board in fundraising areas and matters.

4. Safeguarding Lead Trustee

A calm, experienced safeguarding professional who ensures our boys and men are protected at every step. You’ll help us build safe systems, strong policies, and a culture of responsibility. You'll also lead our board in safeguarding areas and matters.

Additional Trustees (Various Specialisms)

We’re also seeking trustees with experience in:

• Strategy & organisational development

• Mental health, wellbeing, coaching or personal development

• Monitoring, evaluation & impact measurement

• Youth work or education

• Digital operations & community building

• Start‑up charities or early‑stage organisations

If you bring clarity, energy, and a passion for helping men and boys build stronger futures, we want you on our team.

WHY JOIN MINDSET?

1. Because this isn’t a passive board role — it’s a founding mission.

You’ll help shape the charity’s identity, culture, and long‑term direction.

2. Because our model is modern, lean, and high‑impact.

We operate like a fitness brand, not a slow-moving charity. Fast execution. Clean systems. High energy.

3. Because every decision you make will change real lives.

Every metric we track represents a boy, a father, a mate — staying in the game.

4. Because we’re building something West London genuinely needs.

A stigma‑free, practical, preventative space where men and boys learn to build habits, not hide feelings.

WHAT WE ASK OF YOU

• Attend in‑person meetings in London (especially early on for Charity Commission documents).

• Bring your skills, your ideas, your networks, and your leadership.

• Help us build strong governance, safe systems, and a scalable model.

• Champion our mission and represent MINDSET with passion, including helping us spread our social media presence by liking and sharing our posts.

• Commit to a role that genuinely matters.

HELP US CHANGE THE STORY FOR MEN AND BOYS IN LONDON.

If you’re ready to help build a charity with purpose, energy, and real impact, we’d love to hear from you.

Spend 3 - 4 hours a week in a hospital and feel over the moon!

This is what happens when you join the Friends of Chelsea & Westminster Hospital as a volunteer.

Chelsea & Westminster Hospital on Fulham Road is known as one of the best hospitals in London and across the UK as a whole. One reason for this is its focus on patient and staff wellbeing. If you have been a patient at Chelsea & Westminster, you will surely have noticed the staff’s professional work ethic and determination to deliver the best care.

One way to “give back” to the incredible staff is to join our charity the Friends of Chelsea and Westminster Hospital as a volunteer.

The medical staff are often so busy that if they have not brought lunch with them, they have very little time to leave the ward to buy food. Since November 2022 The Friends of Chelsea and Westminster Hospital has successfully operated a Lunch Trolley service for hospital staff, in partnership with B Bagel Fulham Road. The service operates five days a week (Monday-Friday) from 10:00 to 14:00 and allows busy staff to purchase bagels, salads, cakes and drinks without leaving their departments.

In our first year of operation, thanks to our hard-working volunteers we raised around £9,000 to support the work of The Friends charity in the hospital.

We are now looking for four additional volunteers, one who can commit to a set weekly shift of around 4 hours (day to be discussed) and one who can fill in occasionally when one of our permanent volunteers is away. You will be joining a small, friendly team providing a really valuable and popular service to our hard-working hospital staff.

Role description

● Collect the day’s order of bagels and salads from B Bagel (opposite the hospital) by 10:30

● Collect the trolley from the Friends storeroom (lower ground floor) and stock it with the bagels/salads/cakes plus additional items from the stock list

● Volunteers have a dedicated route to follow each day, so Monday’s first stop is not always the first served on the other days

● When entering a ward/department, make yourself known to the nurse's desk and place the trolley in a safe position that does not obstruct the movement of staff or patients

● Take payment via contactless card machine terminals

● At the end of the run, return trolley to The Friends store room (lower ground floor)

●        Carry out stock check

● Remove and dispose of all perishable items from the trolley

● Return carrier box to B Bagel with the order for the next day

Specification

Essential

● Reliable, punctual, and able to commit to at least one 4-hour slot (around 10.00 to 14.00) once a week 

● Trustworthy

● Polite, friendly and enjoys meeting new people

●        Must haave a good standard of spoken and written level of English 

Desirable

● Previous experience in food retail or a similar voluntary role

● Previous experience in operating a contactless card machine

Full training will be provided. Volunteers report to The Friends Charity Manager, but are also required to comply with all requirements of the hospital’s own volunteering department, including undergoing a DBS check, Occupational Health check and core training. We will take up references on all successful applicants.

Please note that this is quite a physically demanding role and will not suit those with mobility issues or who have difficulty moving and handling heavy items.
