A Personal Message From Our Founder

“I started SUNSHINE because I watched someone I love experience a loneliness that no one should ever have to endure.

That experience taught me something I’ll never forget: everyone deserves friendship, belonging and to feel seen.

SUNSHINE is my promise that we’ll create places where people feel welcomed, valued and connected — but I know I can’t build that future on my own.

I’m not looking for experts.

I’m looking for kind people who believe that together we can make a real difference.

If that sounds like you, I’d love to hear from you.”

— Scott, Founder, SUNSHINE Charity

We have supported over 100,000 families and are recognised nationally for our work.

ABOUT THIS ROLE

Behind every programme we run and every family we support, there is careful administration keeping everything in order. We are looking for a Volunteer Admin Coordinator to be that backbone — someone who takes ownership of the detail, keeps our systems running, and makes sure the rest of the team can focus on delivery.

This is an ideal role for someone who is highly organised, discreet, and takes real pride in getting things right.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

Day-to-Day Administration

• Manage correspondence, scheduling, and general administrative tasks across the organisation

• Maintain accurate records, databases, and filing systems in line with GDPR and data protection requirements

Operational Support

• Support the Operations Manager with administrative aspects of HR, finance, and governance

• Help coordinate onboarding for volunteers and new team members

• Track outputs, attendance, and impact data for monitoring and evaluation

Communications & Coordination

• Act as the first point of contact for internal queries — directing people quickly and clearly

• Maintain shared systems and tools so information is easy to find and act on

• Support communication between teams, leadership, and external partners

Governance & Compliance Support

• Help prepare materials for Trustee and leadership meetings

• Support safeguarding admin — DBS checks, consent forms, and record keeping

• Flag gaps in processes and help develop simple, workable solutions

WHO WE'RE LOOKING FOR

• Highly organised with strong attention to detail

• Reliable, discreet, and trustworthy — able to handle sensitive information with care

• Strong written and verbal communication skills

• Confident using digital tools and office systems (Microsoft Office, Google Workspace)

• Able to manage their own time and follow tasks through to completion

• A team player who also takes initiative when needed

• Committed to the values and mission of Children With Voices

This is a voluntary role with real responsibility. We need someone reliable and thorough who takes pride in the detail. You will be supporting a team that serves some of Hackney's most vulnerable children and families — and that matters enormously to us

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.
