Programme Manager – 12‑Week Self‑Improvement 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 flagship 12‑Week Self‑Improvement Programme — the core journey that helps men rebuild confidence, discipline, and purpose.

Why This Role Matters

This programme is at the heart of MINDSET. It’s where men challenge themselves, build momentum, and experience real change. Every breakthrough moment — every habit formed, every challenge completed, every man who reconnects with his potential — depends on strong programme leadership.

Your work will shape the structure, delivery, and impact of the programme. You’ll ensure participants feel supported, motivated, and part of something meaningful. You’ll help create an 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 12‑Week Self‑Improvement Programme

• Support participants through their weekly challenges, goals, and reflections

• Work with coaches, volunteers, and facilitators to ensure smooth delivery

• Help refine programme content, structure, and participant experience

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

• Create a motivating, stigma‑free environment where men feel supported and accountable

• 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 helping people grow, stay accountable, and push their limits

• Organised, proactive, and comfortable managing multiple moving parts

• A natural motivator who enjoys bringing structure and energy 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 will 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 12‑Week Self‑Improvement Programme (your primary focus)

• 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 programme at the heart of MINDSET.

HEAD OF VOLUNTEERING (VOLUNTEER ROLE)

SUNSHINE Charity – Because No One Should Live in Lockdown Forever

Do you remember lockdown?

1. The anxiety.
2. The silence.
3. The walls closing in.
4. The feeling of being cut off from the world.

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

At SUNSHINE, we refuse to accept that.

• Not on our watch.
• Not in our city.
• Not in our communities.

We’re here to bring back warmth, connection, and joy — and we need someone extraordinary to help us do it.

Who We Are

SUNSHINE is a brand‑new, grassroots, 100% volunteer‑powered charity on a mission to end loneliness for Londoners and beyond. We’re small, scrappy, passionate, and building something hopeful from the ground up. We’re currently awaiting our charity number — but our hearts, our mission, and our momentum are already very real.

Our volunteers will be the heartbeat of everything we do. And you will be the one who brings that heartbeat to life.

Your Role: Head of Volunteering

• This isn’t just a role.
• This is a chance to shape the soul of a charity.

We need someone who can be the driving force behind our entire volunteering programme — someone who can build it, nurture it, and infuse it with the SUNSHINE spirit.

You will:

• Design and launch our volunteering programme from scratch.

• Create a culture that is warm, supportive, energising and full of sunshine.

• Recruit, onboard and train volunteers who want to make a real difference.

• Build systems and processes that help volunteers thrive.

• Champion retention and motivation, ensuring people feel valued and inspired.

• Set the tone for what a joyful, people‑centred, volunteer‑run charity can be.

Your work will shape how SUNSHINE grows, how we support people, and how we bring connection back into lonely lives.

Who You Are

1. You’re someone who believes deeply in people.
2. You light up when talking about community.
3. You understand the power of kindness, purpose, and human connection.
4. Maybe you’ve led volunteers before.
5. Maybe you’ve built teams.
6. Maybe you’ve worked in community spaces, HR, training, or people‑focused roles.
7. What matters most is your heart, your drive, and your belief that loneliness should never win.

If you’re creative, proactive, and excited by the idea of building something meaningful from the ground up, you’ll fit right in.

Why Join Us Now?

Because this is the moment everything begins.

We’re at the start of our journey — the fragile, hopeful, electric beginning where every idea matters and every person shapes the future.

Your leadership will help someone feel seen again. Your programme will help someone smile again. Your work will help someone feel less alone.

If your heart is saying yes, we want to hear from you.

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.

Let’s bring sunshine back into people’s lives — together.

Become the First Head of the Volunteer Corps of the Principality of Lys

A Call to Honour. A Call to Creativity. A Call to History.

For twelve years, the Principality of Lys has quietly prepared its foundations — cultural, philosophical, and civic — for a moment that is now approaching. In 2027, we begin our next chapter: public events, international outreach, transparent nation‑building, and the first steps toward settling our 2.7 square miles of claimed European land.

But before that chapter can be written, one role must be filled. A role for someone with courage, imagination, and a sense of destiny.

We Are Seeking a Beacon of Honour and Chivalry

Head of the Volunteer Corps

A volunteer role unlike any other.

This is not a desk job. This is not a title for vanity. This is a foundational role — one that will shape the future of an emerging nation.

You will be the architect of our international volunteer programme, building pathways for citizens and supporters across the world to contribute:

• Remotely

• In hybrid roles

• In person on the ground in Europe

You will help design the systems, culture, and spirit that future generations of Lysians will inherit.

Why This Role Matters

Micronations come and go. But the ones that endure — the ones that become legends — are built by people who step forward when the world least expects it.

The Principality of Lys is entering a new era. We have the land. We have the vision. We have the cultural foundations.

Now we need you — someone who can rally others, inspire service, and help weave the first threads of a living, breathing community.

Your leadership will help us:

• Grow faster

• Grow stronger

• Grow with purpose

• Grow with honour

You will be the spark that ignites a movement.

What You Will Do

As Head of the Volunteer Corps, you will:

• Build and lead our volunteer programme from the ground up

• Recruit, train, and support volunteers across the world

• Shape the culture of service and civic duty within Lys

• Coordinate remote, hybrid and in‑person opportunities

• Help prepare for our 2027 public expansion

• Serve as a guardian of our values: honour, chivalry, creativity, and community

This is a role for someone who wants to leave a mark, not just fill a position.

Who You Are

You don’t need formal qualifications. You don’t need decades of experience.

You need:

• A sense of honour

• A desire to build something meaningful

• A creative mind

• A steady hand

• A belief in community

• And the courage to step into a role no one has ever held before

If you’ve ever wanted to help shape a nation — truly shape it — this is your moment.

This Is Your Invitation

• Stand with us.
• Grow with us.
• Help us build the Principality of Lys into a beacon of culture, creativity, and community.

History remembers the first. Will it remember you?

Trustees - Voluntary Role

We have an exciting opportunity to join this thriving and dynamic organisation as Trustees.

At SARSAS we provide support for people affected by rape or any kind of sexual assault or abuse at any time in their lives. Listening, believing and supporting them through provided vital support to people of all genders through our Helpline, counselling, group work and specialist support services.

We believe that a world without sexual violence is possible. We campaign for people affected by sexual violence because everyone deserves to live free from abuse and its impact. We are unflinching in our commitment to calling for change, in raising awareness, and in our drive for all voices to be heard. We challenge misconceptions about sexual violence and abuse through training and campaigning. We lobby both locally and nationally to promote the needs of survivors.

We need your support!

We are looking for people who can offer energy, enthusiasm, and commitment to join our volunteer Board of Trustees at SARSAS. You will be joining a proactive, engaged and supportive Board and will play a pivotal role in shaping SARSAS and supporting our work.

Whilst ideally you will have prior experience of how a Trustee role works, this isn’t mandatory: If you are committed, passionate, and determined, we would love to hear from you. We will provide training and support to help you become an amazing trustee. We would be particularly interested to hear from you have a background in communication, data, IT or risk.

It matters to us that our Trustees reflect the incredibly diverse communities we serve, and we are actively seeking younger people, people from Black, Asian and minoritised communities and people with a disability for these voluntary roles. We value lived experience of sexual violence within our staff, volunteers and trustees.

Voluntary (expenses paid)

Time commitment

We appreciate for many of our Trustees, they fit volunteering around busy work and home schedules. Overall, the time commitment is expected to be c 30 hours per year, including preparation for meetings.

All trustees are expected to attend 4 x 2.5 hours Board meetings a year (evenings) and 1 full away day each year.

We have two subcommittees that also meet an additional 4 times a year (1.5 hour in the evening), which trustees may be part of.

Being a Trustee at SARSAS is more than just turning up to a few Board meetings, as it is your skills, passion & experience that brings value to the organisation, therefore, we also ask that Trustees engage with SARSAS staff, and attend events or meetings as required, as well as responding to emails. We estimate that this covers a further 7 hours a year.

Equality, diversity, and inclusion

At SARSAS we strive to create a workplace that reflect the communities we serve and where everyone feels empowered to bring their full, authentic selves to work. We want to build an inclusive culture that encourages, supports, and celebrates diverse voices. We actively encourage applicants with protected characteristics to apply.

Reasonable adjustments to the interview process can be made to accommodate additional requirements. Applicants are encouraged to highlight any specific adjustments needed to enable participation in the recruitment process.

Fundraising volunteers wanted to help East London Waterworks Park reach its funding goals

East London Waterworks Park is working to acquire a 14-acre, concreted-over depot on the border of Waltham Forest and Hackney, and to transform it into a ‘brownfield rainforest’ with wild-swimming pools and creative learning spaces for the local community. We are showcasing an environment-first, community-led approach to land ownership that will help nature and people thrive together, revolutionising the way we think about green and blue spaces in cities.

Our Crowdfunder raised over half a million pounds towards buying the land, but we are waiting for the landowner to make decisions about the use of the site. Whilst we wait, we need to raise money for the other work we are carrying out. We have an exciting programme of community projects and work coming up, including carrying out biodiverse transformations on other sites in London.

If you have experience of planning or running fundraising campaigns and would like to get involved with a local charity, we would love to hear from you. Perhaps you are buzzing with ideas of how to raise money or are keen to get stuck in and help to make some events happen. Maybe you are a good writer and seller of ideas and would like to join our mini team of funding bid writers. We would especially love to hear from you if you have experience of writing funding applications.

If you are a professional fundraiser and would like to help but are short on time, we would still love for you to get in touch. Even if you are unable to get deeply involved, we would appreciate one-off or ongoing advice.

We hope that people bring radical imagination, peace with nature and courageous inclusiveness to the role.

We meet once a fortnight online on a Thursday evening 

About Us

Health in the Margins C.I.C. is a newly established UK Community Interest Company. We centre the voices, values and healing traditions of frontline communities- those most affected by health inequalities.

We do this through:

• community-led research & education
• co-designed health programmes and evaluation
• policy and advocacy work

Founded in September 2025, we are in our first year. We are currently building partnerships and securing funding, with plans to increase programme delivery in 2026.

Our Mission: Striving towards epistemic justice, our mission is to centre the voices, values and healing traditions of frontline communities towards the goal of advancing health equity.

The Opportunity

We are looking for a new non-executive director to join our board and help guide the organisation as we grow.

As a small, founder-led organisation, we need someone who can offer strategic thinking, support strong and ethical governance, and help us build a sustainable foundation while staying true to our values and accountable to community.

This is an opportunity to shape an organisation from an early stage and contribute to work focused on health justice. We are looking for someone who is not only skilled, but also personally committed to this work and willing to engage thoughtfully with the communities we come from and work with.

Who we are looking for

We are interested in someone who is passionate about tackling health inequity and motivated to contribute to grassroots, community-led work. We are recruiting 1 or 2 new directors. As we are newly established, experience in one or more of the following would be helpful:

• Strategic thinking aligned with our mission
• Governance (for example as a trustee or director of a charity or CIC) to help us with activities such as updating our bye-laws
• Fundraising (especially with trusts and foundations)
• Developing sustainable income or partnerships
• Finance, risk or organisational sustainability
• Supporting early-stage or growing organisations

We are committed to ensuring our board reflects the communities most affected by health inequalities. We strongly encourage applications from people with lived experience of these issues, including (but not limited to) those from Global Majority communities, disabled people, people with long-term health conditions, migrants, and LGBTQIA+ communities.

We value knowledge gained through community work, lived experience, and informal leadership.

We recognise that this experience often brings valuable insight into systems, access, and equity that is not always captured through formal professional routes.

We are also keen to hear from people who may not have extensive formal board experience, but who have:

• Held responsibility in community, voluntary or informal leadership roles
• Worked closely with marginalised communities
• Contributed to decision-making in grassroots or movement spaces

What matters most to us is not a specific career path, but the ability to engage seriously with governance, bring thoughtful perspective, and contribute to an organisation that is still being shaped.

What You Will Do

You will be part of a small grassroots team that is committed to closing the health gaps in our communities. In this role, you will:

• Provide strategic guidance and oversight
• Help ensure strong governance and accountability
• Support our fundraising approach and sustainability
• Contribute to risk management and sustainability planning
• Act as an ambassador for the organisation
• Attend quarterly board meetings (online)

Time commitment: Approximately 4–6 hours per month.

This is a voluntary (unpaid) role.

What You Will Gain

• The chance to shape a new organisation from the ground up
• The chance to contribute to transformative work in global health equity
• The opportunity to support meaningful, community-led work on health

Person Specification

We are looking for someone who:

• Understands governance responsibilities
• Can offer constructive challenge and independent thinking
• Shares our commitment to equity and community leadership
• Works collaboratively and respectfully
• Can commit reliably to board activities

We are particularly keen to strengthen the independence of our board and welcome applicants who are not connected personally or professionally to the current directors.

How to Apply

Please send:

• A short statement (maximum 1 page or up to 5 minutes audio/video) outlining:
  • Your governance experience
  • Why you’re interested in Health in the Margins
  • What you would bring to the role
• A CV or a short summary of your relevant experience (this can include unpaid or community-based work)

Deadline: Monday 18 May 2026 (end of day)

We will invite shortlisted candidates to an informal online conversation.

If you would like to discuss the role before applying or need a different format to apply, please contact us.

We will review applications on a rolling basis and may close early if we find a suitable candidate.

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.

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.
