Volunteer roles in Dudley
The Iona Community is seeking to appoint up to three new Directors (Trustees) to join our Council from the 2026 AGM.
This is a significant and rewarding opportunity to contribute to the governance and strategic direction of an international, ecumenical Christian movement rooted in hope and lived in community.
About the role
Directors of the Iona Community are also charity Trustees. Together, Council members hold collective responsibility for the governance, strategy and overall stewardship of the Community, ensuring that our work is faithful to our vision, values and charitable purposes. This role is one of strategic oversight, not day-to-day operational management, which is carried out by employed staff.
Trustees are expected to act with care and diligence, to safeguard the ethos and reputation of the Iona Community, and to help ensure that we remain legally, financially and spiritually sustainable for the future.
Who we are looking for
We are keen to hear from people who are aligned with the vision, purpose and values of the Iona Community and who can contribute thoughtfully and constructively to Council discussions.
Applicants may be Members, Associate Members, Friends of the Iona Community, or people from beyond the membership. We are particularly mindful of the need for a diverse mix of skills, backgrounds, perspectives and life experience on Council, and welcome applications from people who may not have previous trustee experience.
Trustees are encouraged to bring both professional expertise and a willingness to engage deeply with the life, faith and common task of the Community.
We believe in the transformational power of community to change lives and that work for justice, peace and an equitable society is a matter of urgency

In addition, senior staff members of the organisation are a valuable knowledge resource on ageing matters/issues, and the organisational culture is such that opportunities for interaction between senior staff and Trustees are easily arranged. HelpAge also actively encourages those Trustees who wish to attend specific workshops and seminars in order to improve their effectiveness as Board Trustees.
Application
HelpAge International is committed to equal opportunities for all its employees, potential employees and Trustees. It seeks to be an inclusive organisation where there is equal opportunity for all and diversity is embraced.

We’re member-led, and our membership spans a range of people who work in health, including nurses, doctors, midwives and clinical researchers, as well as people from the wider health community.
We are now looking for a new Chair of our Board of Trustees. If you share our vision and passion, why not join our Board and help us fight for health justice?
About the role
Our Board of Trustees provides guidance, governance and final sign-off on major decisions on behalf of our membership. Trustees are collectively responsible for the governance of the organisation in line with the requirements of the Charity Commission. Trustees also contribute to the development of Medact's strategy and participate in a range of other activities to support the Director and staff with our work.
There are four planned board meetings per year, which are hybrid, and it is expected that each Trustee will attend most Board meetings. Trustees are also sometimes asked to give their views or sign off on issues between Board meetings if an issue cannot wait. It is hoped that each Trustee will have the capacity to use their unique skills to support the team more broadly with Medact’s work.
As Chair, you will support the Executive Director and staff to help build on our achievements and realise Medact’s vision. You will work with fellow Trustees to make up a strong and effective Board governing the Charity.

Who we are looking for
Our current Board brings a broad range of skills, but we recognise that we do not yet reflect the diversity of the health community. There are also specific types of experience and expertise we would like more of on the Board. In particular, we are looking for potential Trustees with one or more of the following attributes:
-
Lived experience of an issue that Medact campaigns on, for instance the Hostile Environment, the health impacts of economic or housing injustice, the health impacts of armed conflict or UK security policies
-
Experience as a frontline health worker of any sort, preferably current
-
Legal and safeguarding expertise
-
Fundraising expertise, particularly individual giving or major donor fundraising
-
Human resources expertise
As Chair, you will be actively networked within the health community or broader social justice movement and highly experienced in governance or strategic leadership of a charity or NGO. You will have the skills to line-manage the Executive Director. And you will have the ability to advocate on behalf of Medact’s work, as well as helping to build the membership and public image of the organisation.
We hope all Trustees will:
-
Share our vision for a fairer and safer world, and our analysis of the transformational change needed to get closer to it
-
Approach Board discussions and conversations with the team with an open mind, able to listen to and genuinely engage with others’ views
-
Display collaborative behaviours which promote harmony and good team working which supports Medact to be an effective, well-governed organisation
Previous experience on a charity board or in another governance role is useful but by no means essential. If you are interested in becoming a Trustee but aren’t sure you have the right skills and experience, or would like an informal conversation with an existing board member before applying, please get in touch.

Ready to design the face of a movement?
At MINDSET, we’re building a brand-new start-up for men’s mental wellbeing and personal growth across England and Wales. We’re ditching the "grey and clinical" look for something bold, modern, and high-impact. Now, we need a Volunteer Graphic Designer to give MINDSET the visual edge it deserves.
We’re looking for a creative powerhouse to take our brand and turn it into something men actually want to be part of—from digital campaigns to physical event gear.
The Mission:
- The Visual Storyteller: Create high-impact social media posts, info-graphics, and motion graphics that cut through the noise and tell the MINDSET story.
- The Campaign Builder: Design the assets for our Kickstart MINDSET fundraiser and our volunteer recruitment drives.
- The Physical Presence: Create the "real world" stuff—banners, posters, and flyers that make us stand out at events across the country.
- The Brand Guardian: Help us maintain a consistent, positive, and direct visual identity that screams growth and resilience.
The Vibe:
No boring corporate templates. No stock photos of people looking sad. We want fresh, energetic, and professional design that reflects the strength of the men we support. You’ll have a huge amount of creative freedom to shape how the world sees us from day one.
Sound like you?
If you’ve got a killer portfolio, a sharp eye for detail, and a passion for using your skills to make a massive difference, we want you in the studio.
Design the MINDSET Future
To empower men across England to take charge of their mental wellbeing and personal growth through connection, conversation, and community.
The client requests no contact from agencies or media sales.
