OOEF is a small, fast-growing charity and we need people to help us run it well. You can do this on-site with us — in which case you will the magic in action — or remotely, or a mixture of both. Volunteer scheduling, communications, grant applications, impact reporting, events, partnerships... or whatever else you spot needs doing and are motivated to get involved with. No music background needed. We are looking for someone organised, reliable and genuinely interested in what we do.
About the role
Orchestra of Everything Foundation (OOEF) delivers free, immersive music education to around 250 children aged 7–11 at two Bath primary schools in Twerton and Whiteway — nationally ranked deprived communities. Our impact is off the scale: school leaders tell us that 86% of children show improved attitudes to learning across all subjects, and we have been instrumental in a 39% reduction in pupil suspensions. Our work has caught the attention of the Department for Education, and Bath Spa University now incorporates our model into teacher training.
As an Operations & Admin Volunteer you might focus on one area or help across several, depending on your skills and availability: volunteer scheduling, communications, grant applications, impact reporting, events and partnerships. This role can be shaped entirely around you. If you want to be on-site — watching sessions, being part of the team, seeing the impact first-hand — we would love that. Volunteers who come in consistently tell us it is the most motivating thing about the work. But if remote or flexible working suits you better, that works too.
What you'll bring
• Organisational ability and initiative — keeping multiple things moving without always being asked
• Clear written and verbal communication
• Comfort with email and shared documents
• Any of the following are a real bonus: bookkeeping, design, research, fundraising, project management, web skills
Time commitment
The time commitment is flexible and entirely negotiable — from a couple of hours per month to something more regular. Some volunteers come via employer volunteering schemes on a rota (companies and organisations are very welcome); others commit as individuals on an ad hoc basis; others come as students fitting volunteering around their studies. We will shape the arrangement entirely around your availability.
What you'll get from it
• Real insight into how a values-driven music charity operates at a pivotal moment in its growth
• Close working with the founding team on work that genuinely matters
• If you come on-site: the chance to see the direct impact of what you do
• We welcome pro bono contributions from companies supporting employee volunteering
• DBS check arranged and funded by OOEF (if working on-site)

You will be fully supported by our staff team throughout the session, and a member of staff will always be available to assist and provide support where needed.
We are also happy to cover any travel cost within London, and if you would like like to find out more about the chairty and the work we do, please type in Single Homeless Project into your search engine.
