ABOUT TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR FOUNDATION
Tottenham Hotspur Foundation is the charitable arm of Tottenham Hotspur Football Club. Using the power of sport, we work with local communities to improve physical health, mental wellbeing, education, and employment outcomes.

Through our Health & Wellbeing programmes, including Making Sport a Daily Habit (MSADH), we support adults who may be inactive, face health inequalities, or live with long-term health conditions to move more, feel better, and connect with others. We are proud to welcome volunteers from all backgrounds, experiences, and communities.

PURPOSE OF THE VOLUNTEER ROLE
As a Volunteer Health & Sport Coach, you will support the delivery of inclusive and enjoyable physical activity sessions that help adults build confidence, routine, and enjoyment in being active.

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys encouraging others and creating welcoming spaces, particularly for people who may feel nervous or unsure about physical activity. You do not need to be an expert athlete — enthusiasm, empathy, and a supportive attitude are what matter most.

WHAT YOU WILL DO

• Assist with session set-up, delivery support, and pack-down across community venues.
• Encourage participants to take part at their own pace and adapt activities where appropriate.

QUALIFICATIONS & ROLE REQUIREMENTS
• Volunteers supporting the practical delivery of physical activity sessions may be required to hold a minimum Level 2 Gym Instructor qualification (or an equivalent accredited coaching or fitness qualification).
• Volunteers supporting sessions in a non-delivery or administrative capacity are not required to hold this qualification and will be supervised by qualified Foundation staff.
• All volunteers must be willing to complete required training and follow Foundation policies and procedures.

WHO THIS ROLE IS FOR
You may be a great fit if you are:
• Friendly, approachable, and encouraging
• Passionate about physical activity, wellbeing, or community support
• Comfortable supporting people of different ages, abilities, and confidence levels
• Reliable and keen to be part of a supportive team

Helpful but not essential:
• Experience supporting or leading group or physical activities
• Good communication and people skills
• Interest in health, wellbeing, or behaviour change
• Coaching, fitness, or First Aid qualifications

Don’t worry if you don’t tick every box — we value enthusiasm, kindness, lived experience, and a willingness to learn.

WHAT YOU WILL GAIN
• Experience supporting community health and wellbeing programmes
• The opportunity to make a positive difference to people’s lives
• Training, guidance, and ongoing support from experienced staff
• Opportunities to build confidence and practical coaching skills
• A welcoming and inclusive volunteering environment

We encourage applications from individuals of all backgrounds and are committed to creating an inclusive, supportive volunteering environment where everyone can thrive. If you’re ready to help people move more and feel better, we’d love to hear from you!

SUNSHINE Charity – Because No One Should Live in Lockdown Forever

Do you remember lockdown?

1. The silence.
2. The uncertainty.
3. The feeling of being cut off from the world.
4. The ache of missing people, connection, life.

Now imagine living like that every single day — not because of a pandemic, but because loneliness has quietly become someone’s normal.

At SUNSHINE, we refuse to let that be anyone’s story. Not in London. Not in our communities. Not while we’re here.

We’re here to bring back warmth, connection and joy — and we need someone extraordinary to help us tell that story to the world.

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, passionate, and building something hopeful from the ground up. We’re awaiting our charity number — but our mission is already alive, growing and ready to shine.

Now we need someone who can help the world see us.

Your Role: Head of Marketing & Communications

This is your chance to shape the voice, identity and public presence of a charity from day one.

• Build our brand identity and ensure our message is warm, human and unforgettable

• Attract service users who need us

• Inspire volunteers who want to join us

• Engage supporters, funders and donors who believe in our mission

• Lead our digital presence, including social media, website content and storytelling

• Create campaigns that cut through the noise and make people feel something

• Champion our values in every message, every post, every piece of communication

You’ll be the one who helps SUNSHINE be seen, heard and felt.

Your work will help someone discover a lifeline. Your words will help someone feel less alone. Your storytelling will help us grow into the charity we’re meant to be.

Who You Are

• You’re someone who understands the power of a story.
• You know how to make people stop scrolling, stop thinking, and start feeling.
• You’re creative, strategic, and excited by the idea of building a brand from scratch.
• Maybe you’ve worked in marketing, communications, PR, digital media, branding or content creation.
• Maybe you’ve led campaigns or built communities online.
• Maybe you’ve helped organisations grow their visibility and voice.

What matters most is your passion, your imagination, and your belief that connection can change lives.

Why Join Us Now?

Because this is the moment everything begins.

You won’t just be promoting a charity — you’ll be helping to build it. Your ideas will shape our identity. Your creativity will shape our reach. Your voice will shape our future.

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.

Learning & Development Lead – VOLUNTEER ROLE

Remote | Approx. 4 hours per week | MINDSET Charity (UK)

Transforming men’s mental wellbeing through action, challenge, and real‑world connection

MINDSET is building a new kind of men’s mental wellbeing and personal growth movement in the UK — one that speaks the language men actually respond to: doing, belonging, challenge, and shared purpose. We’re not clinical. We’re not corporate. We’re not another “sit in a circle and talk about your feelings” model. We create experiences that help men grow, connect, and rebuild confidence from the inside out.

And now, we’re looking for a Learning & Development Lead to shape the knowledge, skills, and growth pathways that will power this national movement.

Why This Role Matters

Every programme we run — every breakthrough moment, every challenge completed, every man who reconnects with his confidence — depends on one thing: meaningful learning experiences.

Your work will shape how our volunteers, coaches, and programme participants learn, grow, and develop. You’ll be the architect behind the training, resources, and development frameworks that help our people thrive.

This is a founding role. You will build the learning culture and infrastructure that will support men across the UK for years to come.

What You’ll Lead

As our Learning & Development Lead, you will:

• Design and build MINDSET’s learning and development framework from the ground up

• Create simple, engaging training pathways for volunteers, coaches, and programme facilitators

• Develop resources, guides, and learning materials that support confidence, clarity, and growth

• Shape a learning culture rooted in belonging, purpose, and real‑world action

• Work closely with programme leads to understand training needs and build solutions

• Support the development of future programmes, challenges, and wellbeing experiences

• Help build a movement that changes the way men experience personal growth in this country

This role is remote, flexible, and designed for someone who wants to make a real impact in just a few hours each week.

Who This Role Is Perfect For

You’ll thrive in this role if you are:

• Someone who loves designing learning experiences that actually work in the real world

• Organised, creative, and able to turn ideas into simple, practical training materials

• Passionate about men’s wellbeing, personal growth, and community

• Excited by the idea of shaping a national movement from its earliest days

• A believer that learning should feel empowering, not overwhelming

You do not need charity experience. You do need heart, initiative, and a desire to help men live fuller, healthier lives.

What You’ll Be Part Of

MINDSET is creating a new narrative for men in the UK — one built on strength, connection, and growth. Your work will directly support the delivery of programmes such as:

• Our 12‑week Self‑Improvement Programme

• Our Life Coaching Programme

• Future activity‑based wellbeing programmes and challenges

You’ll be helping to build a movement that gives men the tools, confidence, and community they’ve been missing.

If you want to help build something bold, needed, and genuinely life‑changing…

We’d love to hear from you. Join us and help shape the learning culture at the heart of MINDSET.
