• Able to take initiative and help shape a programme from the very beginning.

• Committed to creating a volunteering experience that is supportive, rewarding and meaningful.

Why this role matters

Volunteers will be at the heart of SUNSHINE’s work, helping us reach more people, create more connection and build a stronger sense of community. A well-designed volunteering programme will not only help the charity grow — it will help volunteers feel proud to be part of something purposeful, inspiring and life-changing.
