MARKETING & COMMUNICATIONS VOLUNTEER WANTED — HELP IGNITE A MOVEMENT FOR MEN’S MENTAL WELLBEING

Every movement begins with a message. Every message needs a voice. And right now, MINDSET Charity is searching for ours.

We are at the very beginning of an extraordinary journey — building a prevention‑focused, non‑clinical charity dedicated to supporting men on their mental wellbeing and self‑improvement journey. Through interactive, action‑based programmes, we give men the tools, skills and approaches they need to navigate life with strength, clarity and resilience.

But to create real change, people need to know we exist. They need to feel our energy. They need to hear our mission. And that’s where you come in.

WHY THIS ROLE MATTERS

As our Marketing & Communications Volunteer, you won’t just be “promoting a charity” — you’ll be helping to spark a national conversation about men’s mental wellbeing. You’ll be the heartbeat behind our public voice, shaping how the world sees us, understands us and connects with our mission.

You will help us:

• Build awareness and excitement around MINDSET Charity.

• Create powerful, positive messaging that resonates with men.

• Develop campaigns that inspire action, hope and engagement.

• Craft content that brings our mission to life across social media, email and community channels.

• Generate momentum, visibility and trust as we launch into the world.

This is your chance to help shape the identity, energy and presence of a charity that will change lives.

WHO YOU ARE

You’re someone who:

• Believes deeply in the importance of men’s mental wellbeing.

• Loves storytelling, communication and creating meaningful engagement.

• Wants to help build something from the ground up.

• Has ideas, passion and a spark that can energise others.

• Understands how to create buzz, interest and connection.

• Wants to use your skills to make a real difference.

Whether you’re experienced or just starting out, if you have heart, creativity and drive, you’ll fit right in.

WHAT YOU’LL GAIN

• A chance to shape the public voice of a brand‑new charity.

• Creative freedom to experiment, innovate and lead.

• Portfolio‑ready campaigns and communications work.

• Experience building awareness from zero — a rare and powerful opportunity.

• The knowledge that your words and ideas are helping men step into healthier, stronger lives.

JOIN US AT THE START OF SOMETHING POWERFUL

This is more than a volunteer role. It’s a chance to help build a movement. A chance to create a wave of positive energy around men’s mental wellbeing. A chance to be part of a charity that stands for courage, growth and real‑world change.

If you’re ready to help us tell our story — loudly, proudly and with purpose — we’d be honoured to have you with us.

Be the voice that helps men feel seen, supported and empowered. Be part of MINDSET.

If this speaks to you, we’d love to connect.

We’re looking for a creative and passionate Social Media Manager to grow our online presence, create engaging content, and support impactful campaigns across multiple platforms.

Join Activists Without Borders and help amplify campaigns for human rights, climate justice, nature, and global activism.

Requirements:
• Experience using Canva
• Basic video editing skills
• Familiarity with all major social media platforms
• Fluency in English

If you care about creating change through media and activism, we’d love to hear from you.

Send your CV and a short introduction, along with links to your creative work or social media channels you have managed.

Can you help the Bristol Oxfam Online Shop raise money to support and empower some of the world’s most vulnerable communities?

We are looking for people with an eye for detail to help us research, prepare, photograph, describe and dispatch our homewares on Oxfam’s bespoke online shop. Our specialist online shop sells an eclectic range of clothing, accessories, books, music, film and homewares, sourced from our generous donors at Oxfam shops across the area.

We have had some very interesting homewares donations over the years, from antique postal scales to vintage bears and Wedgwood tea sets. If you know your homewares and can help us identify, price, list and photograph our stock your help will be invaluable! You will receive full training and support from our friendly and knowledgeable team.

What you can do at the shop:

We believe in empowering our volunteers so, depending on your interests and what you would like to get out of the role, you can get involved with any of the following aspects of running the online shop (and more!):

· Researching rare and valuable stock

· Selection, preparation and presentation of stock

· Photography and editing

· Creating accurate and engaging online listings

· Creating engaging content for the shop's social media platforms

· Packaging and dispatching items

What we can offer:

Oxfam's core values are empowerment, inclusiveness and accountability, and we stand by these in all aspects of our work. We provide a safe, friendly and supportive environment and we have a range of tasks to suit all potential volunteers. When you volunteer with us you will have the opportunity to develop your skills (and enhance your CV) and bring your own ideas into the shop. You will be warmly welcomed and you will feel a sense of ownership over the work you do. We will provide full training, giving you the benefit of our experience. We provide references for our volunteers, and we believe nobody should be out of pocket to volunteer with us, so if you live outside the Cotham area we can help with reasonable travel costs. Our shop only sells online and we are not open to the public, so if are interested in gaining ecommerce experience but would value a quieter, relaxed working environment, you will love it here!

What our team have to say about working at the shop:

“Oxfam has given me my first relevant volunteering experience – I’ve learnt about a range of different items as well as how an organisation works – and it gives me a chance each week to switch my focus away from uni work!”

“You come across lots of interesting items, but it can be a thrill when you find something rare or out of the ordinary”

“I’ve been here for four years and I love it – very friendly team, very varied – dealing with high end clothing, antiquarian books, household items and much more – it’s great to find new homes for unwanted goods”

What we ask for:

· Enthusiasm for selling stuff online!

· A willingness to learn and to work within Oxfam's core values

· A commitment of a 3 hour shift per week for at least 3 months

· A commitment to abide by all shop health and safety processes

What your help will enable us to do:

Every pound raised in these incredibly challenging times supports Oxfam’s aim of ending extreme poverty. This income is vital to empower people to help themselves out of poverty, and, crucially, it allows us to act immediately when a disaster happens - saving lives and providing essential resources to help rebuild communities.

Can you help us raise as much as we can to continue our work this year? We won't live with poverty. If you feel the same way we would love to work with you!
