We have the vision and a dedicated Board; now we are looking for a Services Manager to lead the delivery of our core programmes.

-
Compassionate & Wise: You have a deep understanding of men’s mental health and how to create safe, supportive spaces.

Action-Oriented: You don’t just want to talk about helping; you want to make sure the help actually reaches the people who need it.
-
A Great Communicator: You can bridge the gap between our strategy and the volunteers delivering the service.
-
Mission-Driven: You believe that the quality of our service is what will ultimately change lives.

The opportunity
Queen Alexandra Charity is pleased to offer you the chance to help ensure that the quality of our college, community services and supported living provision is as it should be, or better. As a co-optee to our Services Committee, you can help ensure that our students and clients receive the best support possible and we comply with requirements.
The commitment
At present, the Services Committee meets four times each year, for up to three hours each time. While we keep timing under review in the light of changing membership, this year's meetings have started at 2.00pm and all of them have been virtual. Of course, you would also need to prepare for meetings by reading papers. Co-optees also attend annual appraisal and are invited to our annual governance strategy days. For these roles, how far away you live from us is not important over time. However, we know that you would want to come on site at least at the start, to get to know us and what we do.
What we are seeking
We seek interest from people who can digest sometimes large amounts of reading and challenge the executive, and governing colleagues, on whether we are performign as well as we should. So as well as being analytical, applicants will need the necessary confidence to contribute during meetings actively and, sometimes, to defend their viewpoint. We welcome anyone with these skills but, right now, but we especially need to add to our expertise in education (especially specialist further education) and care.
The Queen Alexandra Charity, Birmingham
In addition to community services and supported living for adults, we run the Queen Alexandra College with 480 specialist further education places for people who have a diverse range of abilities and plans to grow to 700.
Is this role right for you?
Being a co-optee brings a commitment that is much more limited than that for trustees/governors. If you are looking to gain experience in governance, but have limited time, this may be the manageable role that you're looking for, through which you can have a major impact as part of a rigorous, but friendly, team.
Get in touch
Please contact Paul Walker, our Director of Governance, with any initial queries. At that time, we can arrange a chat with other key people and/r a visit to us if that would be helpful.
Attending Governance meetings.
QAC's mission is to empower young adults with learning difficulties and disabilities to achieve their ambitions and lead fulfilling lives.

Do you have a passion to make a difference in the lives of children and families? Spurgeons is seeking new trustees to join our current Board in bringing prayerful wisdom and strategic guidance over the coming years.
Spurgeons is one of the UK’s leading children’s charities, supporting vulnerable and disadvantaged children and their families for 150 years. Inspired by Christian faith and our founder Charles Spurgeon, we’re here for all families. Together, we create family hubs where we’re needed most, with counselling, early years and family support. We partner with local councils, churches and communities to care for every family, putting children and young people first in everything we do. Our services also include parenting support and resources, mental health support for children and young people, and working with families affected by domestic abuse and imprisonment.
These services are needed more than ever, and our current strategy focuses on growth, innovating in partnership with churches, developing online family hubs to expand our reach and ensuring fundraising is a strategic priority. We are ambitious and hopeful about how we can grow to make a significant impact on many more children’s lives in the future.
To support Board succession planning, we are seeking to appoint five new trustees with a range of skills and experience including:
· Fundraising and marketing
· Finance
· Children’s services e.g. senior leadership experience within social services, the care sector, local authorities, health, education, or charitable contexts
· Safeguarding

Given an occupational requirement for these roles to be filled by Christians, we are seeking candidates with a personal and active Christian faith who are comfortable and aligned with the statement of faith outlined on our website.
In order to build on our Baptist heritage, we are also keen to ensure that at least one of our trustees is a member of, or has a connection with, the Baptist church.
Spurgeons values diversity, promotes inclusion, and encourages applications from a diverse range of candidates, including those with lived experience of children’s support services. We recognise the need to increase the diversity of the Board, for example in terms of age, ethnicity, disability, gender and LGBTQ+ representation.
In terms of location, at present, Board meetings take place in London and committee meetings take place virtually via Teams.

Treasurer for Age Concern Twyford & District
Do you have an interest in helping our charity that supports older people in our community?
If you have a head for financial matters, you could add to and assist our trustees’ management of our finances.
Initially set up in 1988, we are an independent local charity (Charitable Incorporated Organisation No. 11163722) that promotes and maintains independent living for older residents in and around our local community. We are not affiliated with any similar organisations, but work closely with other Wokingham Borough-based charities and support organisations.
We provide a Day Centre with activities, lunches and optional take-home meals, activities including arts, singing and dancing, plus a range of support services including assistance with form-filling, handypersons and a listening ear to support families.
In 2024/25, our income was £250k, a small rise on previous years, and our services and facilities remain well-used and very well-appreciated in our community.
The Role
We are a small and collaborative trustee team, working closely with the staff in the centre to provide a service to our local community. Our Board includes some people with experience and skills in the services we provide to older people or other professions, and we’d expect trustees to have empathy with our cause and our beneficiaries.
Although we’d welcome your financial qualification, that’s not a requirement, as our finances aren’t complex. An understanding of how charity finance works would be beneficial of course, with the ability to communicate financial information clearly, especially to other trustees, being important. Support from our employees is always available, as they will be dealing with the day-to-day finances.
You don’t necessarily need prior experience of charity trusteeship, as advice from local charity-support organisations is always available. Full induction to our organisation will be provided, plus specialist help as a new trustee, including access to external training.
We are a charity not a commercial business, but we apply business principles to governing our organisation. We are looking for fresh expertise and experience from a variety of backgrounds to our charity. We want to expand the diversity of our Board and strongly welcome applications from people from less-represented groups.
The focus of a trustee role is strategic, and trustees will not be expected to get involved in the organisation’s operations on a day-to-day basis; however, contact and liaison with other trustees and employees is expected.
We ask for about five hours per month, which includes all meetings, discussions, etc., although that time commitment will rise at year-end and for our AGM.
You will need access to digital communications, as some our charity’s business is run that way.
This appointment is being assisted for us by involve Community Services, a charity-support organisation, who can supply you with a detailed Role Description and Skills Specification, and offer advice about trusteeship, even assist your application. Click "Apply Now" below to find out more.

We are looking for someone keen to move into the area of advising small charities on management and governance issues and working with them on other services we provide.
We are a very ambitious local grant-making charity that also offers various training, support and consultancy services to small charities and community groups in West London. Our broad-ranging plans are now beginning to bear fruit and so we need volunteers to help us in the following areas as demand for our services continues to grow:
· Supporting small groups and start-ups with basic governance and management issues
· Facilitating coordination between groups including organising events linking those with common interests
· Monitoring our grant holders and assessing the impact of our services on groups
· Outreach to new groups
· General admin support
· Possibly helping out with grant application assessments when needed
Our ideal candidates would have a good all-round management or professional background gained over a number of years, but they need not be experienced in the areas mentioned above. You'd be given full training, with the opportunity to shadow the people already working in these areas. Far more important is adaptability, initiative, an ability to get on well with people from all sorts of backgrounds, and good organisational and writing skills. Most crucially you would have a demonstrable commitment to our ideals of promoting a strong and influential civil society in West London. You will thrive on challenges and find rewards in seeing our objectives achieved.
You would ideally be able to commit an average of 1 day a week and the work would involve dealing with our clients during office hours, so you will probably be someone who is working part-time, or is perhaps retired or semi-retired, or is otherwise not in full-time employment. We would also be prepared to consider applicants only able to commit a few hours a week for some of the duties mentioned above.
Much of the work would be taking place from home, but it will also involve some face to face contact with clients, so living in or around the Ealing, Hounslow or Hillingdon boroughs would be a definite advantage.
All reasonable expenses will be reimbursed and refreshments provided where suitable.
The client requests no contact from agencies or media sales.

Become the Founding Head of SUNSHINE Services (Volunteer Role)
Lead the programmes that bring joy, connection, and community back to London.
Loneliness is one of the quietest crises of our time — but at SUNSHINE, we believe in rewriting that story. We are a new loneliness and wellbeing charity with a bold mission: to bring people together, spark joy, nurture belonging, and create spaces where everyone feels seen, valued, and connected.
Our charity application is submitted. Our Trustees are in place. Our first pilot programmes are ready to launch. Now we are looking for a founding leader who wants to shape the heart of our work.
This is not just a volunteer role. This is a chance to design the experiences that will define a movement.
Could you be our first Head of SUNSHINE Services?
We’re searching for someone who lights up at the idea of building programmes that genuinely change lives — someone who understands people, community, and the power of joyful connection.
You might be perfect for this if you bring:
-
Warmth, empathy, and a people-first mindset
-
Experience in community programmes, wellbeing, or social impact
-
Creativity and curiosity about what makes people feel welcome and included
-
A collaborative spirit and a love of co-creation
-
Energy, initiative, and a desire to build something meaningful from the ground up
As our founding Head of SUNSHINE Services, you’ll work closely with our Founder & CEO to shape, deliver, and grow the programmes that sit at the heart of our mission.
What you’ll help us bring to life
-
Pilot programmes that bring neighbours together — from coffee mornings to digital inclusion sessions to wellbeing workshops.
-
Warm, welcoming spaces where joy and connection can flourish.
-
A programme identity that feels uplifting, inclusive, and unmistakably SUNSHINE.
-
Volunteer-led activities that empower communities to support one another.
-
A service model that can grow across London and beyond.
Your leadership will help shape the experiences that people remember — the moments that lift spirits, build friendships, and restore hope.
Why SUNSHINE?
Because we believe in:
-
Joy as a form of care
-
Community as a source of strength
-
