About Refugee Biryani & Bananas
Refugee Biriyani & Bananas (RBB) began as a grassroots movement in 2015, in response to the Syrian refugee crisis. What started as a group of friends distributing 2,500 portions of biriyani and bananas in the unofficial camp for displaced people in Dunkirk, Northern France, has grown into a community-driven humanitarian organisation. Initially working under the umbrella of another organisation, RBB became independent to better address gaps in aid and advocacy for displaced people worldwide.
What We Do
RBB supports people facing displacement, war, and inequality, tailoring actions to the needs of each situation. From food distributions to medical support and human rights advocacy, our work is versatile and responsive. We have provided aid in refugee and internally displaced persons (IDP) camps, squats, and other unstable settlements along migratory pathways, including:
France: Calais, Dunkirk & Paris
Greece: Idomeni, Thessaloniki, Athens, Lavrio, Samos & Chios (our main base)
Northern Iraq: Duhok
Serbia: Belgrade Barracks
Bosnia & Herzegovina - Croatia Border: Vucjak Camp
Turkey: Istanbul
Poland, Belarus & Lithuania Border
Ukraine Border (Poland and Ukraine sides)
Palestine: Gaza
Egypt: Cairo
Our Approach
RBB is a mobile grassroots organisation, designed to respond rapidly and flexibly to emerging crises. Our main base of operations is on Chios Island, Greece, where we provide ongoing support to people who are displaced.
Since October 2023, we have also established community-led initiatives to support people affected by the war in Gaza, Palestine, as well as Sudanese and other displaced communities in Cairo, Egypt.
Beyond emergency relief, we remain committed to ongoing support through volunteers, translation services, medical care, aid, and advocacy until either local capacity builds or the situation changes. In addition, our Community Humanitarian Leaders Programme (CHLP) plays a vital role in this approach by strengthening the leadership of people who are displaced by building on their existing skills, networks and lived experience in humanitarian efforts.
Our field team comprises 90% individuals from refugee and asylum-seeking communities, representing Sudan, Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, Somalia, Gambia, Ethiopia, Palestine, and Yemen. This diverse team is led by our founder and CEO, Ruhi Akhtar, alongside field coordinators / project managers.
We prioritise dignity and equity, involving displaced individuals in decision-making and collaboration. RBB's direct aid includes food, water, shelter, medical supplies, clothing, hygiene packs, and season-specific items like sunscreen or firewood. Needs assessments and communication with affected communities guide our actions, ensuring targeted, person-centered care.
Advocacy & Awareness
RBB amplifies the voices of displaced people by sharing their stories and raising awareness about often-overlooked realities. Through storytelling and advocacy, we aim to challenge injustice and inspire action.
We are a safe space for all people and welcome those who are new to and currently underrepresented on Charity Boards, in particular members who consider themselves to have a disability and those in the global majority. Lived experience of migration or asylum or a commitment to this work is welcomed.
Interested applicants should send a CV with full contact details and a brief covering letter to address your motivation for the role, what specific skills and expertise you would bring and how you meet the competencies listed in the role description.
Female-led grassroots organisation delivering humanitarian aid and advocacy with displaced communities through a community-led approach.

HEAD OF SUNSHINE SERVICES (VOLUNTEER ROLE)
SUNSHINE Charity – Because No One Should Live in Lockdown Forever
Do you remember lockdown?
Now imagine living like that every day, not because of a global crisis — but because loneliness has quietly become someone’s whole life.
At SUNSHINE, we refuse to let that happen. Not in London. Not in our communities. Not while we’re here.
We’re here to bring back joy, connection and human warmth — and we need someone extraordinary to help us build the services that will make that happen.
Who We Are
SUNSHINE is a brand‑new, grassroots, 100% volunteer‑powered charity on a mission to brighten the lives of people experiencing loneliness and social isolation. We’re small but fierce, hopeful, and building something meaningful from the ground up. We’re awaiting our charity number — but our purpose is already alive and growing.
Our services will be the lifeline people hold onto. And you will be the one who shapes them.
Your Role: Head of SUNSHINE Services
This is a rare opportunity to build a charity’s services from scratch — to design programmes that genuinely change lives and bring people back into community.
You will lead the creation, delivery and development of our pilot programmes, including:
Digital Inclusion & Skills (6‑week programme) — helping people reconnect with the world through confidence, technology and support
Wellbeing Wednesdays (12‑week programme) — a warm, uplifting space for emotional wellbeing, connection and growth
Monthly Coffee Mornings — simple, joyful gatherings that remind people they matter
And that’s just the beginning.
You’ll work in co‑production with the people we serve — listening, learning, and shaping new services based on real needs, real voices, and real lives.
You will:
Design, launch and oversee all SUNSHINE services and programmes
Manage and support Programme Coordinators delivering each pilot
Ensure quality, safety and impact across everything we offer
Build a culture of compassion, empowerment and joy within our service teams
Use feedback and lived experience to shape future services
Be a key leader in how SUNSHINE grows and supports communities
Your work will directly help people feel seen, valued and connected again.
Who You Are
What matters most is your heart, your drive, and your belief that no one should face life alone.
Why Join Us Now?
Because this is the moment everything begins.
You won’t just be joining a charity — you’ll be helping to build it. Your ideas will matter. Your leadership will shape lives. Your work will bring sunshine into places that have been dark for far too long.
If you want to be part of something hopeful, human and life‑changing, this is your moment.
How to Apply
Send us your CV and a short statement about why this role speaks to you.
We welcome people from all backgrounds, experiences and walks of life.
