85 Housing and homelessness volunteer roles

Do you have experience in managing projects within or connected to the music industry, and have some time you can give back to help an amazing cause? Do you want to be part of an exciting new band launch? PINT Giving are looking for a Project Manager to lead the launch of the PINT Syndicate! 

The PINT Syndicate, under the PINT brand umbrella, will be a new collective/band producing and performing original songs. The vision is for this new group to write, produce, record and perform their own original songs. We are building a founding team to work together to establish the band, including working with our volunteer HR manager to recruit all roles required including songwriters, producers, band members and singers. 

Our Project Lead will be responsible for shaping and coordinate the launch of the band – identifying what needs to be done and who else needs to be involved to make this idea a reality. This is a new volunteer role, so we are looking for someone who can bring their knowledge of the music industry, their network and their project management experience to help develop ideas into clear, practical plans.

We are looking for volunteers with experience managing projects within, or connected to, the music industry. We are particularly interested in hearing from people who understand how to coordinate activity across artists, venues, promoters, labels, production teams or creative partners, and understand how the music industry works. We are also looking for someone who is organised, proactive and confident managing moving parts, timelines and relationships, with the ability to work collaboratively with other volunteers to help turn this creative opportunity into real impact for PINT.

What’s in it for you? Volunteering at PINT is a fantastic opportunity to gain experience in  the charity sector, develop your skills, and contribute to an amazing cause.

The time commitment can be flexible with whatever you are able to give, but around 4 hours a week on average could be a good estimate.  

Volunteer Video Editor & Digital Content Creator

Hope and Vision Communities Charity – Reading

Time commitment: Around 4–8 hours per week
Location: Reading, with flexible/remote working

About the opportunity

Hope and Vision Communities is a Reading-based charity supporting people as they move on from residential addiction treatment. We provide safe, family-sized homes where residents can continue their recovery, build relationships, develop independence and find their place in the community. Alongside a place to live, we offer practical and emotional support, opportunities to work, volunteer, retrain and socialise, and a community where people can feel supported for as long as they need it.

We’re looking for a volunteer with a passion for video and storytelling to help us share more of this work. From community activities and events to the everyday moments that show what recovery and rebuilding a life can look like, you’ll help us create content that gives people a better understanding of Hope and Vision and the difference our community can make.

The main focus will be video editing, including short-form content for social media and longer-form videos for platforms such as YouTube and our website. There will also be opportunities to help us tell the wider Hope and Vision story, including our work supporting people as they move towards independent living and our plans to develop our communities further.

If you also have skills or an interest in graphic design or website front-end development, we’d be very happy to make use of those skills. These are an added bonus rather than a requirement — what matters most is your ability to create engaging content and your interest in helping us share the work we do.

What you could be working on

Depending on what’s happening across the charity, your work might include:

• Turning footage from community activities, events and interviews into engaging videos
• Editing short videos for Instagram, TikTok, Facebook and YouTube Shorts
• Producing longer-form videos for YouTube and our website
• Adding captions, music, graphics and simple visual effects
• Creating different versions of videos for different social media platforms
• Helping us make the most of existing footage and content
• Coming up with ideas for new video content and ways of telling our stories
• Working with members of the team to understand what we want each piece of content to achieve

If you have ideas about how we could make our content more interesting, accessible or effective, we’d love to hear them.

Additional creative skills

There may also be opportunities to get involved in other areas if these are skills you enjoy using.

· Graphic design could include creating social media posts, thumbnails, posters, campaign materials or other digital assets.

· Website/front-end skills could include helping improve the appearance and usability of our website, creating or adjusting page layouts, or making small front-end changes using technologies such as HTML, CSS or JavaScript.

These areas are entirely optional. The core requirement is an interest and ability in video editing.

What would suit this role?

Whether you’re looking to develop your experience, take on a new creative project, or simply enjoy making videos and would like to use your skills to support a local charity, we’d love to hear from you. You don’t need to have worked for a charity before.

We’d particularly like to hear from you if you:

• Have experience with video editing software such as CapCut, DaVinci Resolve, Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro or similar
• Understand what makes video content engaging on social media
• Have a good eye for pacing, composition, music and storytelling
• Can work independently and manage your time
• Are comfortable taking feedback and working with others
• Are reliable and able to commit around 4–8 hours each week
• Care about the work charities and community organisations do

Experience with graphic design, motion graphics, photography, branding or front-end web development would be a bonus.

What you’ll get from volunteering with us

This is a chance to create content that reflects the work we do at Hope and Vision Communities and the people and communities we support. You’ll be working with real footage from our activities, events and projects, helping to show the difference our work makes in Reading and the surrounding communities.

As well as developing your video editing skills and building your portfolio, you’ll help us share more of what we do with a wider audience. Your work will help us tell our stories, showcase the people we work alongside, raise awareness of the opportunities and support we provide, and encourage more people to connect with and support Hope and Vision Communities.

Time commitment

We’re looking for approximately 4–8 hours per week, although we can be flexible about when those hours are completed.

Some work can be done remotely, with arrangements discussed around the needs of the charity and the volunteer.

Interested?

If this sounds like something you’d flourish at, we’d be pleased to hear from you.

Please get in touch with Hope and Vision Communities with a brief introduction and, if available, examples of your previous video, design or digital work.

You don’t need to have a perfect portfolio or extensive professional experience. If you have the skills, creativity and enthusiasm to help us tell our story, we’d like to hear from you.

As a self-starter, you'll elevate the quality of our bid content.  By overseeing the creation of compelling, polished materials, you'll ensure that our final submissions are professional, cohesive, and error-free. You will utilise a centralised content library filled with valuable resources, such as case studies and CVs, to streamline our efforts and enhance our proposals.

You will keep projects on track by developing detailed project plans and timelines, ensuring that all tasks are completed punctually—especially critical in the fast-paced environment of tender submissions.  Your effective management will ease the workload for colleagues focused on their core responsibilities, allowing the entire team to shine.

To foster long-term business growth, you'll create a wealth of knowledge around our tenders and bids. By conducting insightful post-submission debriefs and analysing feedback, you will capture invaluable lessons from both successes and setbacks.  This ongoing improvement process will enhance our bidding capabilities for future opportunities.

You can also enhance AHO's brand reputation by submitting well-organised, accurate, and compliant bids.  By doing so, you'll showcase our professionalism and reliability to clients, building trust and solidifying our credible standing in the market.
