The Netherton Feelgood Factory exists to support local people. We provide activities, services, and a welcoming space for residents of all ages and backgrounds — but none of that happens without a secure financial foundation. As a small charity, we can't rely on grants and donations alone. Sustainable income from venue hire gives us something equally precious: independence. The freedom to plan ahead, to protect the services people rely on, and to say yes to new ideas. As our Venue Hire & Income Generation Volunteer, you won't just be filling a diary. You'll be helping to future-proof a community asset.

Our organisation provides advice and services to all members of our local community from birth to old age.  We help over 5000 people each year with a variety of health-related or social needs.  Our centre is used as a base for counselling, food distribution, health programmes, children’s activities and social groups.  As funding sources have diminished the demand for our services has increased.  We are actively pursuing other ways to generate income.

We're looking for a volunteer with business, sales, or marketing experience to help us make the most of our fantastic building by hiring it out to local businesses, training providers, clubs, and organisations. Whether you've worked in sales, events, marketing, property, or business development — or simply have a talent for spotting an opportunity and making things happen — we'd love to hear from you.

You'll play a key role in identifying potential hirers, promoting our spaces, and helping us price and package our facilities competitively — all while ensuring the centre's core charitable activities remain protected.

• Identify and approach potential hirers, including local businesses, training providers, clubs, and community organisations
• Develop and maintain a marketing plan to promote the building for hire (e.g. flyers, social media, local business networks, online listings)
• Review and help set competitive, sustainable hire rates for different rooms/spaces and time slots
• Create or improve hire packages (e.g. half-day/full-day rates, regular booking discounts, room set-up options)
• Help develop simple hire agreements, terms and conditions, and invoicing processes (with support from staff/trustees)
• Build relationships with regular or repeat hirers to encourage long-term bookings
• Identify opportunities for new income streams connected to venue hire (e.g. catering add-ons, equipment hire)
• Report progress and income performance to the management team/trustees on a regular basis.

This is a genuinely rewarding role. You'll use your real-world skills to help generate vital income that goes straight back into funding the services our community depends on. You'll have the freedom to be creative — developing hire packages, building relationships with local businesses, and finding new ways to fill our spaces and boost our income.

You won't be doing it alone. Our friendly staff and trustee team will support you every step of the way, and you'll have the flexibility to volunteer in a way that suits your schedule.

If you're approaching retirement and looking for a way to keep your business skills sharp and stay connected, or if you're simply someone who wants to make a difference close to home, this could be the perfect fit.

Volunteer Role: MINDSET Charity Steering Group Committee

Location: Remote (London connections highly beneficial)

Commitment: Minimum 4 hours per month

Help Us Build MINDSET Charity From the Ground Up

Poor mental health can affect anyone — but men and boys are often less likely to talk about how they feel. Many struggle alone, not because they want to, but because they’ve never had a space where opening up feels safe, comfortable or understood.

MINDSET Charity is here to change that.

We’re a London‑based start‑up charity in our concept and set‑up stage, building a movement that empowers men and boys to develop stronger mindsets, healthier habits and positive futures through action‑based wellbeing. No therapy. Just growth, reflection and real‑world tools that help men become the best version of themselves.

To get MINDSET ready for launch — and prepare for our first Trustee recruitment — we’re building a Steering Group Committee of passionate volunteers who want to help shape something meaningful from day one.

What You’ll Be Part Of

This is not a typical volunteer role. This is building a charity from scratch — its foundations, its programmes, its identity, its future.

You’ll help us:

• Shape our mission, values and early strategy

• Develop the core structure needed for charity registration

• Prepare for Trustee recruitment and governance setup

• Build partnerships, networks and community connections

• Contribute ideas, insight and lived experience to strengthen our work

• Support the creation of early programmes and wellbeing activities

If you have connections in London, that’s a huge bonus — but passion, commitment and belief in our mission matter most.

Who We’re Looking For

People who:

• Believe men’s mental health deserves real attention

• Want to help create safe, empowering spaces for men and boys

• Are excited by start‑up energy, creativity and building from the ground up

• Can give at least 4 hours per month (more if you can)

• Bring ideas, initiative and a willingness to get stuck in

• Value growth, resilience and positive male role models

You don’t need formal experience — just heart, drive and a desire to make a difference.

Why Join Us?

1. Because this is your chance to help build a charity that will change lives.
2. Because men and boys need spaces where they can grow, reflect and feel supported.
3. Because your voice, your skills and your passion will shape the future of MINDSET Charity.

• This is purpose.
• This is impact.
• This is the beginning of something powerful.

Apply now and help us build MINDSET Charity — one mindset, one action, one future at a time.

For coordination, governance, and alignment with UK community‑group standards, this role requires someone living in the United Kingdom. The work is fully remote — but your location ensures smooth collaboration and compliance.

WHY THIS ROLE MATTERS

The Lyonic Scots are more than a community — we are a movement built on:

• Heritage and identity

• Creativity and culture

• Belonging and kinship

• A shared mission to build something meaningful

Your words, campaigns, and ideas will shape how the world sees us. You will help build a brand that inspires pride, unity, and connection.

This is your chance to lead with creativity. To tell a story that matters. To help build a legacy that lasts.

REMOTE • FLEXIBLE • IMPACTFUL

This role is fully remote and designed to fit around your life. Whether you contribute weekly or monthly, your impact will echo across the entire Clan.

STEP FORWARD. FIND YOUR VOICE. LEAD OUR STORY.

• If you believe in heritage…
• If you love storytelling…
• If you want to help shape the identity of a modern Scottish Clan…

We welcome you.

Join the Lyonic Scots. Lead our message. Inspire our future.

Your voice. Our Clan. One legacy.

CREATIVE DIRECTOR WANTED

JOIN THE SQUAD. CHANGE THE CULTURE. IGNITE THE STREETS.

URBAN YOUTH isn’t your typical youth charity. We don’t do clipboards, corporate jargon or endless meetings.

1. We do impact.
2. We do energy.
3. We do urban culture brought to life.

And right now, we’re calling out for a Creative Director who’s ready to step into the heart of it.

Step Into a Role That Actually Means Something

This isn’t a desk job. This is a movement. Urban Youth will run high‑energy pop‑up youth work (like a streetwear drop), creative takeovers, community jams, and raw, real opportunities for young people who deserve more than the system usually gives them.

We’re building a community. A vibe. A family. And we need someone who can shape the look, feel and soul of it.

What You’ll Do

1. You’ll be the creative engine behind everything we do — the visuals, the storytelling, the experiences, the culture.
2. You’ll help us design moments that young people feel in their chest. Moments that make them say, “Yo, Urban Youth is different.”
3. You’ll bring ideas that hit hard.
4. You’ll help us build a brand that’s loud, bold and unapologetically urban.
5. You’ll make creativity accessible to young people who’ve been told they don’t belong in those spaces.

Who You Are

• You’re a creator. A visionary. A culture‑builder.
• Someone who sees potential everywhere — in a blank wall, a beat‑up basketball court, a group of young people hanging out after school.
• You don’t need a fancy title or a portfolio full of agency work.
• You just need passion, imagination, and the guts to try things that haven’t been done before.

If you’ve ever thought, “I want to do something real. Something that matters.” This is it.

Why Join Urban Youth?

• Because we’re not waiting for permission.
• We’re not drowning in red tape.
• We’re not ticking boxes.
• We’re out here to create real experiences, real connections, real change — one pop‑up at a time.
• You’ll be part of a squad that backs each other, pushes boundaries, and builds community with raw authenticity.

Ready to roll?

1. If your creativity is itching for a purpose…
2. If you want to be part of something that feels alive…
3. If you want to help shape a youth movement that’s loud, proud and rooted in the streets…

Urban Youth wants you.

Step up. Join the squad. Let’s build something unforgettable.
