VOLUNTEER HEAD OF MARKETING & COMMUNICATIONS

Join SUNSHINE — Bringing Connection, Joy, Community Spirit and SUNSHINE to Every Neighbourhood

WHO WE ARE

SUNSHINE is a start‑up loneliness charity at the very beginning of its journey — a modern, volunteer‑powered movement bringing people together through simple, meaningful activities that spark connection, build confidence, and spread joy.

Our work reflects the diversity of London — its cultures, communities, and neighbourhoods.

We don’t rely on a building or a centre. We go where people already are — parks, libraries, cafés, community halls, online spaces, neighbourhood corners. Wherever people gather, we show up with warmth, welcome, and community spirit.

Loneliness affects people of all ages and backgrounds, often silently.

We’re building a future where every neighbourhood feels connected, supported, and full of opportunities for people to grow, contribute, and belong. If you believe in people, community, and the power of small moments to create big impact, you’ll feel right at home here.

WHAT WE DO

SUNSHINE will be delivering free and low‑cost community‑led activities that help people connect, learn, and thrive, including:

• Social groups and pop‑up events

• Health and wellbeing sessions

• Skills workshops (digital, creative, financial, employment readiness)

• Family‑friendly activities

• Neighbourhood outreach in underserved areas

• Volunteer‑led community projects

Everything we do is shaped by local voices and powered by volunteers — bringing connection, joy, and community spirit to the places people already love.

OUR APPROACH

• Local — We go where people already are.

• Inclusive — Everyone is welcome.

• Flexible — We adapt to community needs.

• Volunteer‑Powered — People make this possible.

THE ROLE — VOLUNTEER HEAD OF MARKETING & COMMUNICATIONS

We’re looking for a Volunteer Head of Marketing & Communications to help shape the voice, story, and visibility of SUNSHINE as we grow across London.

This is a creative, strategic, and hands‑on leadership role for someone who loves storytelling, branding, digital engagement, and building movements that people feel proud to be part of.

You’ll help bring SUNSHINE to life — online, in communities, and in the hearts of the people we serve.

As our Volunteer Head of Marketing & Communications, you will:

1. Lead Brand & Storytelling

• Shape SUNSHINE’s tone of voice, visual identity, and storytelling approach.

• Bring our mission to life through warm, human, community‑centred messaging.

• Ensure our communications reflect the diversity and spirit of London.

2. Grow Our Digital Presence

• Lead our social media strategy across key platforms.

• Create engaging, accessible content that sparks connection and builds awareness.

• Support volunteers to share stories, photos, and moments from their activities.

3. Support Recruitment & Engagement

• Develop simple, effective campaigns to attract volunteers, partners, and supporters.

• Help ensure our messaging is inclusive, welcoming, and easy to understand.

• Build a sense of pride, belonging, and movement‑energy across our community.

4. Build Partnerships & Visibility

• Develop relationships with local media, community groups, and partners.

• Identify opportunities for positive coverage, collaborations, and storytelling.

• Represent SUNSHINE with warmth, confidence, and authenticity.

5. Work with Leadership

• Collaborate with the Founder/CEO and volunteer leads to align communications with strategy.

• Ensure our marketing supports the growth of services, fundraising, and community outreach.

• Champion our values and embed them in every message, post, and campaign.

This role is perfect for someone who:

• Loves creativity, storytelling, and community‑powered movements.

• Enjoys shaping brand identity and building digital engagement.

• Has experience in marketing, communications, social media, or content creation — or is excited to grow into it.

• Thrives in start‑up environments where you can build things from scratch.

• Values inclusion, kindness, and making information accessible to everyone.

• Wants to help reduce loneliness and strengthen neighbourhoods.

• Believes in the power of stories to create change.

Time commitment is flexible and can fit around your life. We welcome people from all backgrounds and experiences — especially those with lived experience of the communities we serve.

WHY IT MATTERS

Loneliness is one of the biggest challenges facing our communities today. Too many people feel disconnected, unseen, or without a place to belong.

SUNSHINE exists to change that.

By joining us as our Volunteer Head of Marketing & Communications, you’ll help shape the voice and visibility of a movement that brings people together, builds confidence, and creates moments of joy and belonging.

Your creativity will help us reach more people, inspire more volunteers, and bring SUNSHINE to neighbourhoods that need it most.

Together, we can bring SUNSHINE to every corner of our communities.

This is a strategic and creative leadership role for someone who loves storytelling, social change, and building campaigns that feel hopeful, inclusive, and impossible to ignore.

You’ll help shape SUNSHINE’s public voice on loneliness — turning a silent struggle into a shared movement for connection.

As our Volunteer Head of SUNSHINE Loneliness Campaigns, you will:

1. Lead Campaign Strategy

• Support volunteers to run local campaign activities and events.

4. Collaborate Across SUNSHINE

• Work closely with the Head of Marketing & Communications to bring campaigns to life across digital channels.

5. Drive Movement‑Energy

• Help build a sense of pride, belonging, and collective action across the SUNSHINE community.

• Celebrate small wins, local stories, and moments of connection.

• Champion our values and embed them in every campaign.

This role is perfect for someone who:

• Loves storytelling, creativity, and social change.

• Wants to challenge stigma and spark national conversations about loneliness.

• Has experience in campaigns, activism, communications, community engagement, or social impact — or is excited to grow into it.

• Thrives in start‑up environments where you can build things from scratch.

• Values inclusion, kindness, and making information accessible to everyone.

• Believes in volunteer‑powered movements and community spirit.

• Wants to help reduce loneliness and strengthen neighbourhoods.

Time commitment is flexible and can fit around your life. We welcome people from all backgrounds and experiences — especially those with lived experience of loneliness or the communities we serve.

WHY IT MATTERS

Loneliness is one of the biggest challenges facing our communities today. Too many people feel disconnected, unseen, or without a place to belong.

SUNSHINE exists to change that.

By joining us as our Volunteer Head of SUNSHINE Loneliness Campaigns, you’ll help shift the narrative — from silence to understanding, from stigma to solidarity, from isolation to connection.

Your creativity and leadership will help spark a movement that brings people together, builds confidence, and creates moments of joy and belonging in every neighbourhood.

Together, we can bring SUNSHINE to every corner of our communities.

Using their passion and imagination, they oversee a small team of fundraising volunteers who come together to raise the vital funds needed to cover costs such as veterinary bills and food. Our fundraising team leaders support their team of volunteers in all aspects of their roles, making sure our volunteers are happy, confident and supported.

You can expect us to

• make you feel welcome, included and respected in line with our values and behaviours
• support you in having a positive and impactful experience at Cats Protection
• cover agreed out-of-pocket expenses in line with our Expenses Policy
• provide you with access to learning, development and engagement opportunities

What we need from you

You'll be:

• supporting and encouraging a team of fundraising volunteers
• planning fundraising events and activities with your team
• allocating tasks before and during fundraising events
• keeping financial records from fundraising events
• encouraging and promoting a professional image of Cats Protection
• following policies and guidelines and ensuring licences and permits are obtained for events

Time expectation

Our fundraising team leaders usually spend three to four hours per week in this role, which is flexible and can be shared by more than one volunteer if needed.

You may be just the volunteer we've been looking for!

We are committed to building a diverse, compassionate and inclusive organisation where everyone can be themselves and do their best. We are courageous and compassionate in our purpose of helping people see the world through cats’ eyes. Together, we can make a difference. Together, we are all for cats. Join the UK’s leading cat welfare charity and help make a better life for cats, because life is better with cats.

VOLUNTEER HEAD OF PEOPLE, CULTURE & TALENT

Join SUNSHINE — Bringing Connection, Joy, Community Spirit and SUNSHINE to Every Neighbourhood

WHO WE ARE

SUNSHINE is a start‑up loneliness charity at the very beginning of its journey — a modern, volunteer‑powered movement bringing people together through simple, meaningful activities that spark connection, build confidence, and spread joy.

Our work reflects the diversity of London — its cultures, communities, and neighbourhoods.

We don’t rely on a building or a centre. We go where people already are — parks, libraries, cafés, community halls, online spaces, neighbourhood corners. Wherever people gather, we show up with warmth, welcome, and community spirit.

Loneliness affects people of all ages and backgrounds, often silently.

We’re building a future where every neighbourhood feels connected, supported, and full of opportunities for people to grow, contribute, and belong. If you believe in people, community, and the power of small moments to create big impact, you’ll feel right at home here.

WHAT WE DO

SUNSHINE will be delivering free and low‑cost community‑led activities that help people connect, learn, and thrive, including:

• Social groups and pop‑up events

• Health and wellbeing sessions

• Skills workshops (digital, creative, financial, employment readiness)

• Family‑friendly activities

• Neighbourhood outreach in underserved areas

• Volunteer‑led community projects

Everything we do is shaped by local voices and powered by volunteers — bringing connection, joy, and community spirit to the places people already love.

OUR APPROACH

• Local — We go where people already are.

• Inclusive — Everyone is welcome.

• Flexible — We adapt to community needs.

• Volunteer‑Powered — People make this possible.

THE ROLE — VOLUNTEER HEAD OF PEOPLE, CULTURE & TALENT

We’re looking for a Volunteer Head of People, Culture & Talent to help build the heart of SUNSHINE — the people, the culture, and the volunteer experience that will shape our movement for years to come.

This is a hands‑on, human‑centred leadership role for someone who loves supporting people, building inclusive cultures, and creating environments where volunteers feel valued, confident, and excited to contribute.

You’ll help design the systems, practices, and experiences that make SUNSHINE a joyful, safe, and empowering place to volunteer.

As our Volunteer Head of People, Culture & Talent, you will:

• Lead on volunteer recruitment, onboarding, and support.

• Help build a warm, inclusive, values‑driven culture across the charity.

• Develop simple, accessible processes that make volunteering easy and enjoyable.

• Support team wellbeing and help volunteers feel confident, connected, and appreciated.

• Shape training, development, and recognition approaches for volunteer teams.

• Ensure our people practices reflect safeguarding, inclusion, and best practice.

• Work closely with the Founder/CEO and volunteer leads to build strong, healthy teams.

• Champion our values and help embed them in every interaction, activity, and decision.

This role is central to how SUNSHINE feels — how people join, how they grow, how they belong, and how they shine.

This role is perfect for someone who:

• Loves people and believes in their potential.

• Enjoys creating warm, inclusive cultures where everyone feels welcome.

• Has experience in HR, people development, community leadership, or volunteer management — or is excited to grow into it.

• Thrives in start‑up environments where you can build things from scratch.

• Wants to use their skills to create real social impact and help reduce loneliness.

• Believes in volunteer‑powered change and community spirit.

• Wants to bring connection, joy, and SUNSHINE to local neighbourhoods.

Time commitment is flexible and can fit around your life. We welcome people from all backgrounds and experiences — especially those who bring lived experience of the communities we serve.

WHY IT MATTERS

Loneliness is one of the biggest challenges facing our communities today. Too many people feel disconnected, unseen, or without a place to belong.

SUNSHINE exists to change that.

By joining us as our Volunteer Head of People, Culture & Talent, you’ll help build the human foundations of a movement that brings people together, strengthens neighbourhoods, and creates opportunities for connection, confidence, joy, and community spirit.

Your leadership will help volunteers feel supported, valued, and inspired — and that will directly shape the impact we can make in every community we reach.

Together, we can bring SUNSHINE to every corner of our communities.
