Pr officer volunteer roles

BIND is a collection of projects and people that reduce food waste by bringing people together to create change. We design and deliver projects across sectors that push boundaries and achieve results. We believe change is created not by a handful of people doing sustainability perfectly, but by everyone doing a little something. Find out more about our values and purpose on our website. Our work is split between Magic Hat, Eat Smart and food waste partnerships.

Magic Hat is Newcastle City Centre’s first and only coffee shop, kitchen and events venue dedicated to impacting the UK’s wider food waste problem - positively. Our chefs design menus on-the-day, every day, made from food that's far too good to be wasted. Fresh ideas for ingredients at their best. Magic Hat also operates a volunteer programme, a PAYF shop, an events programme and a hireable meeting space/kitchen. Magic Hat's profits go to supporting Bind's other projects in food waste prevention. After 5 years of trading in Newcastle City Centre, our lease was terminated for the building to get redeveloped. We are currently seeking out a new premises for Magic Hat and designing for how we can continue to challenge in its next iteration.

Eat Smart is a successful primary school educational programme born in the NE of England designed to inspire children and schools to reduce food waste and build sustainable food systems. We deliver engaging resources and learning experiences that empower schools and pupils to have more ownership of their kitchens/dinner halls, improve student wellbeing, and have increased environmental awareness. 

Since 2018 Eat Smart has enabled 70 schools in North East England to rescue their food waste by over 25%, equivalent to saving 6,000 meals worth £13,000 per school, per year, and our expansion to other areas of the UK has already begun. With an ever-growing data set and credibility for school food waste prevention, we have increasing potential to affect school food policy and deliver food waste prevention interventions on a national level.

Bind is expanding its work to ensure food waste prevention, not just redistribution, is at the heart of our mission. Bind works in partnership with businesses, local authorities and community groups to help them reduce their food waste, and reduce their food bills by using surplus food in their kitchens. We are well recognised in the North East and lead various partnerships of public, private and voluntary sector organisations, tasked with reducing food waste at a strategic level.

ROLE TITLE: Brand Guardian (Visual Lead) – Men’s Mental Growth Movement
CATEGORY: Arts, Culture & Heritage / Marketing, PR & Media
CAUSES: Mental Health / Men
ROLE TYPE: Volunteer (Remote)

JOIN MINDSET:
Most men’s mental health branding is depressing. It’s all clinical blues, sad faces, and "waiting room" energy. We’re bining that. MINDSET is a new, action-first CIO that speaks the language men actually respond to: challenge, movement, and real-world connection.

We don’t want a charity brand. We want a movement identity.

THE ROLE:
We are looking for a Brand Guardian to join our "Engine Room". You will be the architect of our visual soul. Your mission is to create a brand that feels like a high-performance lifestyle label—think Nike, Patagonia, or Movember—but built for mental resilience.

WHAT YOU'LL DO:

We have a logo already but you will use that to;

• Build the "Mission Kit" (Social media templates, digital assets and physical flyers for our events).
• Ensure every pixel of MINDSET passes the "Pub Test"—if it looks like a doctor’s surgery, we start again.

WHO YOU ARE:

• A designer with a "gritty," active, or high-contrast aesthetic.
• Someone who believes that "action" is the best medicine for the mind.
• A volunteer who wants to see their work on the chests of men climbing mountains and hitting workshops across the UK.

COMMITMENT: 

This is a volunteer role with no set hours. While we would ideally appreciate a committment of 2–3 hours per week, we are fully flexible around your other life commitments. You are free to stop volunteering at any time. This role is fully remote.

APPLY:

CATEGORY: Marketing, PR & Media / Writing & Editorial
CAUSES: Mental Health / Men
ROLE TYPE: Volunteer (Remote)

JOIN MINDSET:
Most men’s mental health content is beige. It’s full of "it's okay to talk" platitudes that men have stopped hearing. We’re changing the script. MINDSET is a new, action-first CIO built around shared experiences, challenges, and real-world connection.

We don't want a "Content Creator." We want a Storyteller to turn our missions into a movement.

THE ROLE:
As our Storyteller, you are the voice of MINDSET. You’ll be responsible for taking the raw energy of our "Missions"—hikes, workshops, and challenges—and turning them into punchy, no-BS content that actually lands with men.

WHAT YOU'LL DO:

• Draft our "Mission Manual" (The Tone of Voice guide).
• Write "The Hook, The Action, The Growth" copy for social media and our newsletter.
• Interview the men on our missions to share real stories of transformation without the clinical jargon.
• Ensure every word we publish passes the "Pub Test"—if it sounds like a doctor wrote it, we bin it.

WHO YOU ARE:

• A writer, journalist, or copywriter who knows how to grab attention in three seconds.
• Someone who can write with heart and humour, but zero fluff.
• A believer that "doing" is the best way to start "talking."

COMMITMENT: 

This is a volunteer role with no set hours. While we would ideally appreciate a committment of 2–3 hours per week, we are fully flexible around your other life commitments. You are free to stop volunteering at any time. This role is fully remote.

APPLY: 

Send us a link to your work (blog, portfolio, or even a killer LinkedIn post) and tell us why you’re ready to rebrand men’s growth.

Mavar is currently seeking a seasoned networker to join the Mavar Trustee Board as a Trustee with special responsibilities for strengthening our fundraising practice and broadening the charity’s donor base. Working with our Board and CEO, you’ll bring experience, insight and strategic guidance to help develop our fundraising capacity in support of the strategic development of the charity.

Mavar’s Mission

Founded on the belief that everyone has the right to choose their own path in life, Mavar’s central mission is to empower individuals who choose to explore opportunities beyond the strictly orthodox community to fulfil personal goals. Mavar supports our members’ efforts to achieve independence, live authentically and cope with the obstacles they may encounter as they explore options to live, work or study in the secular world – whether or not they choose to leave the Charedi community.

Mavar’s Service Users

Some men and women who have grown up in the closed world of the Charedi community hold personal and religious values that are not in line with the rest of the community. Attempts to follow their own path often bring them into direct confrontation with family, friends and neighbours who regard expressions of individualism or self-determination as heresy. These individuals fear that the community will ostracise them, leaving them feeling trapped, isolated and helpless.

Some may simply wish to explore options for obtaining a general education or improving their access to employment opportunities whilst wishing to remain within the ultra-orthodox community; others may look to divest themselves of the strictures of ultra-orthodoxy and to lead a more mainstream lifestyle. They all typically lack the everyday life skills to cope with the challenges of the secular world, which appears to them as a confusing, frightening and alien planet. Any effort to integrate with the outside, secular world is hampered by limited English language skills, cultural disorientation, lack of basic education or qualifications and negligible skills for employment.

Trustee Role Details

The day-to-day operations of Mavar are conducted by staff and volunteers under the leadership of our CEO and with the overall oversight of the Trustee Board.

Main Duties of the Fundraising Trustee:

• Contribute to the overall governance of the charity as a member of the Board of Trustees.
• Provide advice and support on fundraising strategy, ensuring income generation is planned and executed in alignment with Mavar’s budget framework and objectives.
• Act as a fundraising champion on Mavar’s board, working with the CEO and supporting other trustees to explore fundraising possibilities.
• If you have personal networks with fundraising potential, utilise them to support the work of the charity.
• Support the development of diverse fundraising streams (e.g. individual giving, trusts and foundations, community fundraising, corporate support) and advise and support with appeals and major fundraising events/campaigns.
• Act as an ambassador for the charity, promoting its work and helping to raise its profile.
• Ensure compliance with fundraising regulation and best practice, as well as Mavar’s policies and procedures.

You are expected to give at least one day per month to your role. Board meetings take place four times a year in London, with a mixture of online and in-person meetings and are complemented by occasional online or in-person feedback meetings with the CEO and the Treasurer.

Person Specification

Essential

• Commitment to the charity’s mission and values
• Understanding of the legal duties and responsibilities of charity trusteeship
• Knowledge and experience of fundraising (e.g. trusts, corporates, major donors, community fundraising, or digital campaigns)
• Strategic thinker, able to balance long-term planning with practical advice
• Strong communication and networking skills

Desirable

• Experience of charity fundraising
• Existing networks that could support the charity’s fundraising efforts
• Understanding of charity finance and/or marketing

WANTED: THE NEXT GEN FOUNDER.

ROLE: VOLUNTEER YOUTH Co-CEO (AGE 18–25)

THE MISSION: LEAD THE STREETS. SHAPE THE BRAND.

Most charities talk about young people. URBAN YOUTH is built by them.

We don’t do "youth councils" or "advisory boards." We do Power. We are looking for a Youth Co-CEO to sit at the top table. Someone who knows what’s hitting the streets, what the community needs, and how to make a "drop" go viral.

This is your brand. This is your city. Take the keys.

As Youth Co-CEO, you aren't just an assistant—you are the Cultural Architect. You work side-by-side with the other Volunteer Co-CEO to drive the engine:

• CULTURAL LEAD: You define the "Vibe." You tell us where to drop, what the kit should look like, and how we talk to our community.

• THE STRATEGIST: You help decide which neighborhoods need us most and how we flip the script on "traditional" youth work.

• THE FACE: You represent the brand on the ground, on the "Gram," and in the boardroom.

• THE CONNECTOR: You bridge the gap between the suit-and-tie funders and the real energy of the streets.

WHO YOU ARE

• AGED 18–25: You’re in the mix. You understand the pressure, the talent, and the hustle of being young in the city today.

• VISIONARY: You don't want a "job"; you want to start a movement.

• BOLD: You aren't afraid to tell the "adults" in the room when an idea is dead or when we need to pivot.

• HUSTLER: You know how to get things done with limited resources.

WHY VOLUNTEER @ URBAN YOUTH

• Co-CEO Status: Real leadership experience that beats any degree or entry-level job.

• The Network: Direct access to CEOs, funders, and community leaders.

• The Gear: Full URBAN YOUTH "Crew" kit (Exclusive Yellow/Black drops).

• The Legacy: You aren't just "helping out"—you are co-founding the future of street-based youth work.

WE DON'T WANT A CV. WE WANT THE ENERGY.
