We create warm, uplifting spaces where no one stands alone — ever. Whether it’s a coffee, a conversation, a walk, a workshop or a moment of joy, every person is welcomed with open arms and genuine care.

And now… we’re looking for compassionate, community‑minded volunteers to help us run SUNSHINE and spread warmth even further.

1. Community Hosts

5. Outreach & Community Engagement

Help us reach isolated people, local groups, partners and neighbours who would benefit from SUNSHINE.

Why Volunteer With Us

Because SUNSHINE isn’t just a charity — it’s a feeling. A community. A place where people rediscover belonging, purpose and joy.

Volunteering with us means:

• Making a real difference to people who need connection.

• Being part of a warm, supportive team.

• Bringing your personality, creativity and heart.

• Helping build something beautiful for your community.

Ready to Bring a Little More SUNSHINE Into the World?

Together, we can make sure no one stands alone.

If you are over 18 and have been impacted by suicide loss, you could help make a difference.

• Have you been impacted by suicide?
• Do you have a desire to help others?
• Are you comfortable with listening to and supporting people with similar experiences to your own?

Survivors of Bereavement by Suicide (SoBS) is the leading charity providing peer-to-peer support for adults who have been bereaved or impacted by suicide. We believe that no one should face their loss alone, so we create safe spaces across the UK for people to share and process their grief.

We are seeking compassionate volunteers looking to start up a new peer support group in Aberystwyth.

Who are we looking for?

• Over the age of 18.
• Bereaved by suicide over 18 months ago and confident in your own progress. The impacts of a death by suicide are far-reaching - this could have been a family member, friend, colleague, client, or even a stranger.
• Passionate about supporting others in your community.
• Friendly, trustworthy, and approachable, with good active listening skills.
• Respectful, sensitive, and non-judgmental approach to survivors.
• Comfortable in supporting conversations and managing group dynamics.
• Good communication skills – both spoken & written English.
• A commitment to support the group, your team, and the surrounding community.

How do groups work?
Each group is facilitated by a team of three volunteers who have all been bereaved by suicide themselves. Their role is facilitating meetings, group administration, fundraising and communication for the group as a team. All volunteers are provided with full training before they begin the role and receive support from head office throughout their volunteering journey.

SoBS groups usually meet once a month for around 2 hours, and provide people with an opportunity to listen, share, ask questions, and connect with others in a safe and non-judgemental space.

There is no set structure to a meeting – people are free to talk and listen as much or as little as they want. Topics discussed vary from month to month but often include people sharing their story, how they are feeling, what has happened since their last group visit, questions about coroners and discussions about common challenges such as flashbacks, supporting children or facing neighbours. Established groups may occasionally organise guest speakers, go on walks, or arrange craft workshops.

What will you do?

• Facilitate group sessions – meeting survivors, starting off conversations, allowing space for people to talk (if they want to), and looking out for others.
• Administration & communication – managing enquiries from survivors, providing information and signposting where needed, submitting information to the national office.
• Provide signposting to head office, as well as other local charities and services.

What do we provide?

• Robust training and a commitment to development.
• Annual volunteer assembly: talks, forums, guest speakers, celebrations, and socials.
• Peer support from over 500 other volunteers with regular opportunities to meet and share ideas.
• Regular check-ins & catch-up sessions with a dedicated Volunteer Coordinator for your region, and our team in the national office.
• Travel & group expenses for your volunteering role.
• Coverage by SoBS’ Public Liability Insurance whilst you’re carrying out the role.

Survivors of Bereavement by Suicide welcomes people of all backgrounds, abilities, and identities. We are committed to providing reasonable adjustments that enable volunteers with disabilities to access our opportunities.

As a group facilitator, you will play a vital role in supporting others bereaved by suicide. If you are passionate about supporting others through their grief journey, please do apply.
