 Welcome to the NHS Retirement Fellowship

Thank you for your interest in becoming the new chair of the NHS Retirement Fellowship. We are halfway through a five-year plan which is transforming the way we operate, how we engage with the NHS and other key stakeholders, and how we support our members currently and in the future. We have already come a long way from where we started and we are now beginning an ambitious plan of doubling our membership and raising awareness so we can continue with our mission of supporting retired and retiring NHS, health and social care staff. We are seeking a dynamic and professional chair with significant senior leadership experience in the NHS (or the broader health and social care sector) and/or extensive experience of governing a charity to work with us to deliver our vision.

Our Board is made up of a variety of professionals from across the NHS and beyond, a number of whom are members of the Fellowship. We work closely with our dynamic senior leadership team, branch officers and volunteers and have fostered an excellent working relationship for the benefit of our members.

The Fellowship has a small executive team of seven part time staff who all work remotely from home.

The potential for the NHS Retirement Fellowship is immense, and I very much look forward to welcoming you and working with you on this exciting journey.

Julia Hickey

Acting Chair

NHS Retirement Fellowship.

About the NHS Retirement Fellowship

“One of things that makes the NHS a special place to work is the sense of togetherness, belonging and family. So, when colleagues come to retirement, the Fellowship is a wonderful way of maintaining these things and allowing colleagues to continue their connection with the service. I think more can be done to help retired colleagues share experiences, perspectives and support and the Fellowship is ideally placed to do this.” Sir Jim Mackey, Chief Executive, NHS England

Our motto is fun, friendship and fellowship and it sits at the heart of everything we do.

The NHS Retirement Fellowship began in 1978 when retiring nurse Irene James recognised that for significant numbers of retiring NHS staff, their colleagues and friends had also become their family and that those pivotal connections could be lost. Our role has changed during that near 50 years as the NHS has changed and more latterly with the seismic transformation into a digital world. We now have almost 100 branches from the Highlands of Scotland to the north Devon coast and from Swansea in west Wales across to Norwich in East Anglia. About a third of our members are now national members, often choosing to engage on a more remote, digitally based basis. All our members have access to a portfolio of benefits which we offer, including our flagship travel insurance policy, and we are actively pursuing a partnership which would bring a huge range of benefits and discounts to our members. We also have a special fund to support members at a time of need.

Our branches run semi independently from our main charity with their own committees and bank accounts. Volunteers arrange a variety of activities for their members at local and regional level. National members, who choose not to join a specific branch, can join in with local activities and also have access to an increasing number of online based activities. We also hold an annual conference and AGM where the Board, staff and our members can all come together.

We are increasingly working with the NHS and other stakeholders in partnership to see how we can support employers and retain connections, experience and expertise at local level. We’re helping foundation trusts with governors, hospitals with volunteers and NHS charities with supporters. We’re looking to grow so that we are the voice of the retired NHS and wider health service community and see how our members can offer mentoring, support and guidance to the younger generations of NHS staff. 

Our charity is looking to become a charitable incorporated organisation (CIO) over the next year.

Our values and mission are unchanged from when Irene James recognised the need to continue to support NHS staff when they retired to enable them to retain links, mutual support and understanding and friendships built over the years in their shared working lives. The NHSRF supports people in retirement to maintain friendships and make new ones, from the NHS, health and social care sectors from a diverse background irrespective of race, religion, ethnicity, sexual orientation and to support each other through friendship.

Role description and time commitment

Our Chair will lead the Board in developing and delivering our strategy, working closely with, and providing line management and support to, our chief executive. They will also support our chief operating officer in preparation for Board meetings and our head of communications in the planning of our conference and other duties. Our Chair will also be a key representative of the Fellowship in meeting and liaising with key stakeholders.

Our Board meets remotely three times a year and once a year in person. We also have two strategy days a year and our AGM and conference which takes place over a weekend in October. There is also a standing invitation to our Members Council meetings, which are three times a year remotely and once a year in person.

Timeframes

The closing date for applications is noon on Monday 1 June. Shortlisting will take place in the following week with interviews to take place in London on Thursday 2 July.

Term of office

We are looking to appoint for a three-year period initially. This will take us through 2028 when the NHS will mark its 80th anniversary and the NHS Retirement Fellowship will celebrate its 50th birthday.

Our chair role is unpaid, but we will reimburse you for reasonable travel expenses.

Admin Manager/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 an Admin Manager/Lead to build the operational backbone that keeps this national movement running smoothly.

Why This Role Matters

Behind every programme, every challenge, and every breakthrough moment for a man in our community, there’s a huge amount of organisation happening quietly in the background.

Your work will ensure that the charity runs efficiently, that volunteers and programme leads have what they need, and that our systems support — rather than slow down — the mission. You’ll be the person who brings clarity, structure, and calm to a fast‑growing movement.

This is a founding role. You will help build the administrative systems and processes that will support men across the UK for years to come.

What You’ll Lead

As our Admin Manager/Lead, you will:

• Build simple, effective administrative systems that keep the charity running smoothly

• Manage inboxes, documents, schedules, and internal communications

• Create and maintain clear processes that support volunteers and programme leads

• Keep information organised, accessible, and up to date

• Support onboarding processes and ensure volunteers have what they need

• Work closely with leadership to streamline operations as we grow

• Help build a movement that changes the way men experience wellbeing 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:

• Naturally organised and enjoy bringing order to busy environments

• Someone who loves creating simple systems that make life easier for everyone

• Reliable, detail‑focused, and comfortable managing multiple tasks

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

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

You do not need charity experience. You do not need formal admin qualifications. You just 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 build the administrative foundation at the heart of MINDSET.

The Board of Trustees is the governing body of the charity and is collectively responsible for its success. All trustees must take decisions in the interests of the charity.

ADMIN MANAGER & COMPANY SECRETARY (VOLUNTEER ROLE)

SUNSHINE Charity – Because No One Should Live in Lockdown Forever

Do you remember lockdown?

1. The stillness.
2. The uncertainty.
3. The feeling of being cut off from the world.
4. The long days where connection felt far away.

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

At SUNSHINE, we refuse to let that be anyone’s reality. 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 organised, steady and compassionate to help keep our young charity running smoothly behind the scenes.

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 us stay organised, compliant and confident as we grow.

• Oversee filing systems, digital organisation and internal communications

• Support volunteer onboarding admin, helping us stay structured and efficient

• Be the organisational backbone, helping SUNSHINE stay steady, safe and well‑run

Your work will help us build a charity that people can trust — one that is safe, organised and ready to support those who need us most.

Who You Are

• You’re someone who loves order, clarity and good organisation.
• You’re reliable, detail‑focused and calm under pressure.
• You care deeply about people and want to use your skills to make a real difference.
• Maybe you’ve worked in admin, office management, governance, compliance or PA roles.
• Maybe you’ve supported Boards or senior leaders before.
• Maybe you’re simply brilliant at keeping things running smoothly.

What matters most is your heart, your steadiness, and your belief that loneliness should never be a life sentence.

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 organisation will shape our foundations. Your attention to detail will shape our safety. Your presence will help us bring sunshine into lives 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.

We would still be happy to host you if space is available. However, in a situation where the shared houses are full, this would allow us to offer an opportunity to someone that cannot afford to pay rent.

Programme Manager – Life Coaching Programme (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 Programme Manager to lead and develop our Life Coaching Programme — a powerful, supportive journey that helps men gain clarity, confidence, and direction.

Why This Role Matters

Our Life Coaching Programme is where men slow down, reflect, and start making meaningful changes in their lives. It’s where they build self‑awareness, set goals, and reconnect with who they want to become. Every breakthrough conversation, every shift in mindset, every moment of clarity depends on strong programme leadership.

Your work will shape the structure, delivery, and impact of the programme. You’ll ensure participants feel supported, guided, and part of a community that believes in them. You’ll help create a coaching experience that genuinely changes lives.

This is a founding role. You will help build and refine a programme that will support men across the UK for years to come.

What You’ll Lead

As our Programme Manager, you will:

• Oversee the full delivery of the Life Coaching Programme

• Support participants through their coaching journey, ensuring they feel guided and encouraged

• Work closely with volunteer coaches to coordinate sessions and maintain quality

• Help refine coaching materials, structure, and participant experience

• Track engagement, progress, and outcomes to improve the programme over time

• Create a warm, stigma‑free environment where men feel safe to grow

• Help build a movement that changes the way men experience personal development 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 supporting people through growth, reflection, and personal change

• Organised, proactive, and comfortable managing multiple moving parts

• A natural listener who brings calm, clarity, and structure to a group

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

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

You do not need charity experience. You do not need formal coaching or programme‑management qualifications. You just 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 leadership will directly support:

• Our Life Coaching Programme (your primary focus)

• Our 12‑Week Self‑Improvement 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 coaching programme at the heart of MINDSET.
