Volunteer roles in Holywell, lincolnshire

Beacon for Rare Diseases hosts The Resources Hub, a 100% free and accessible e-learning platform created to support the rare disease community, including:

• Patient groups, patients and families
• Researchers and life science professionals
• Rare disease advocates

The Resources Hub brings together over 100 free resources, including written courses, video guides, webinars and recordings from events and conferences. These resources are designed to support people at every stage of their rare disease journey, whether they are just getting started or are part of a well-established organisation.

We are incredibly proud of the breadth and quality of what’s available on the Hub. However, much of our long-standing content is under-promoted, meaning that people don’t always find the right resource at the right time.

“The Resources Hub provides invaluable resources to help patient group leaders navigate challenges such as caring responsibilities, health issues, and employment.”

“It breaks down topics relevant to the rare community in a way that's easy to digest and empowering to take action!”

About the role

We are looking for a social media volunteer to help us shine a light on the wealth of content already available within the Resources Hub.

In this role, you will:

• Spend time exploring our existing Resources Hub content
• Write 1–3 social media posts per resource, tailored for different platforms
• Help us build a reusable library of social media posts that we can draw on to promote resources when they are most relevant

This role is about helping people discover support that already exists, making it easier for patient groups and advocates to find information that could make a real difference to their work.

Who this role would suit

This is a specific, project-based placement and would suit someone who already has experience in communications, social media or content creation.

You’ll be someone who:

• Enjoys writing clear, engaging social media copy
• Understands how to adapt messaging across different platforms
• Is comfortable working independently and managing their own time
• Can take guidance on tone and branding and run with it

While we don’t have capacity to provide training, you won’t be left on your own. We will:

• Provide clear direction on priorities and approach
• Share brand guidance and examples
• Review initial work to make sure everything feels aligned
• Have routine check-ins, provide feedback, and an end-of-placement review

--

Time commitment and flexibility

​This is a fully remote volunteering role, which we ideally hope can be completed within around three months. We anticipate a minimum commitment of approximately two hours per week, though a shorter, more intensive placement could also be arranged to suit the volunteer. We are open to having more than one volunteer on this project and do not expect a single person to work through the entire Hub.

Please note: we are looking for this placement to begin as soon as possible.

• Help improve access to free, high-quality resources for the rare disease community
• Support patient groups, patients and advocates to build confidence and capacity
• Gain experience working with a well-established national charity
• Take on a clearly defined project with flexible working

ROLE TITLE: Brand Guardian (Visual Lead) – Men’s Mental Growth Movement
CATEGORY: Arts, Culture & Heritage / Marketing, PR & Media
CAUSES: Mental Health / Men
ROLE TYPE: Volunteer (Remote)

JOIN MINDSET:
Most men’s mental health branding is depressing. It’s all clinical blues, sad faces, and "waiting room" energy. We’re bining that. MINDSET is a new, action-first CIO that speaks the language men actually respond to: challenge, movement, and real-world connection.

We don’t want a charity brand. We want a movement identity.

THE ROLE:
We are looking for a Brand Guardian to join our "Engine Room". You will be the architect of our visual soul. Your mission is to create a brand that feels like a high-performance lifestyle label—think Nike, Patagonia, or Movember—but built for mental resilience.

WHAT YOU'LL DO:

We have a logo already but you will use that to;

• Build the "Mission Kit" (Social media templates, digital assets and physical flyers for our events).
• Ensure every pixel of MINDSET passes the "Pub Test"—if it looks like a doctor’s surgery, we start again.

WHO YOU ARE:

• A designer with a "gritty," active, or high-contrast aesthetic.
• Someone who believes that "action" is the best medicine for the mind.
• A volunteer who wants to see their work on the chests of men climbing mountains and hitting workshops across the UK.

COMMITMENT: 

This is a volunteer role with no set hours. While we would ideally appreciate a committment of 2–3 hours per week, we are fully flexible around your other life commitments. You are free to stop volunteering at any time. This role is fully remote.

APPLY: 

Send us a link to your portfolio and tell us why you want to kill the "sad man in a hoodie" trope.

ROLE TITLE: The Storyteller (Content Lead) – Men’s Mental Growth Movement
CATEGORY: Marketing, PR & Media / Writing & Editorial
CAUSES: Mental Health / Men
ROLE TYPE: Volunteer (Remote)

JOIN MINDSET:
Most men’s mental health content is beige. It’s full of "it's okay to talk" platitudes that men have stopped hearing. We’re changing the script. MINDSET is a new, action-first CIO built around shared experiences, challenges, and real-world connection.

We don't want a "Content Creator." We want a Storyteller to turn our missions into a movement.

THE ROLE:
As our Storyteller, you are the voice of MINDSET. You’ll be responsible for taking the raw energy of our "Missions"—hikes, workshops, and challenges—and turning them into punchy, no-BS content that actually lands with men.

WHAT YOU'LL DO:

• Draft our "Mission Manual" (The Tone of Voice guide).
• Write "The Hook, The Action, The Growth" copy for social media and our newsletter.
• Interview the men on our missions to share real stories of transformation without the clinical jargon.
• Ensure every word we publish passes the "Pub Test"—if it sounds like a doctor wrote it, we bin it.

WHO YOU ARE:

• A writer, journalist, or copywriter who knows how to grab attention in three seconds.
• Someone who can write with heart and humour, but zero fluff.
• A believer that "doing" is the best way to start "talking."

COMMITMENT: 

This is a volunteer role with no set hours. While we would ideally appreciate a committment of 2–3 hours per week, we are fully flexible around your other life commitments. You are free to stop volunteering at any time. This role is fully remote.

APPLY: 

Send us a link to your work (blog, portfolio, or even a killer LinkedIn post) and tell us why you’re ready to rebrand men’s growth.

CATEGORY: Marketing, PR & Media / Digital & Social Media
CAUSES: Mental Health / Men
ROLE TYPE: Volunteer (Remote)

JOIN MINDSET:
Algorithms don't care about "awareness," and neither do we. We care about action. MINDSET is a new, volunteer-powered CIO that’s binning the clinical "waiting room" approach to men’s mental health. We’re building a movement around shared challenges and real-world connection.

We don't need a "social media manager" to post quotes. We need a Digital Navigator to lead our growth.

THE ROLE:
As our Digital Navigato, you are the link between our vision and the men who need it. You’ll be responsible for our digital presence, managing our "Coming Soon" campaigns, and using data to make sure our "Missions" are seen by the right men at the right time.

WHAT YOU'LL DO:

• Deploy the "Coming Soon" campaign across X, Instagram, LinkedIn, and Facebook.
• Monitor engagement—using data to tell The Frontline (The Doers) what activities men actually want.
• Apply for and manage our Google Ad Grant (up to £7.5k/month in free ads).
• Grow the waitlist using simple, high-impact digital funnels.

WHO YOU ARE:

• A digital marketer or social lead who knows that "likes" don't equal "impact."
• Someone who understands how to target male-leaning audiences effectively.
• A volunteer who wants to use their technical "day job" skills to save lives.

COMMITMENT: 

This is a volunteer role with no set hours. While we would ideally appreciate a committment of 2–3 hours per week, we are fully flexible around your other life commitments. You are free to stop volunteering at any time. This role is fully remote.

ROLE TITLE: The Tech Setup Lead (Systems & Infrastructure) – Men’s Mental Growth Movement
CATEGORY: IT / Technology / Project Management
CAUSES: Mental Health / Men
ROLE TYPE: Volunteer (Remote)

JOIN MINDSET:
Most charities are slowed down by clunky tech and "reply-all" email chains. We won't be. MINDSET is a new, action-first CIO built for the modern world. We trade clinical waiting rooms for real-world challenges, and we need a digital workshop that’s just as efficient.

We don't want an "IT Support" person. We want a Systems Architect to build our engine room.

THE ROLE:
As our Tech Setup Lead, you are the invisible force that makes MINDSET scale. You’ll be responsible for setting up our "Tech Stack"—from volunteer comms to member waitlists—ensuring everything is automated, secure, and simple to use.

WHAT YOU'LL DO:

• Set up and manage our Google Workspace for Nonprofits.
• Build our internal "Mission Control" using Slack and Notion.
• Implement a lean CRM/Email system (like Mailchimp) to manage our growing brotherhood.
• Bridge the gap between our vision and the digital tools that make it happen.

WHO YOU ARE:

• A tech-savvy pro who knows how to make different apps talk to each other.
• Someone who values "simple and scalable" over "complex and clunky."
• A volunteer who wants to build the foundation of a movement that changes lives.

COMMITMENT: 

This is a volunteer role with no set hours. While we would ideally appreciate a committment of 2–3 hours per week (initially during setup), we are fully flexible around your other life commitments. You are free to stop volunteering at any time. This role is fully remote.
 

APPLY: 

Send over your up-to-date CV and Tell us about the best "No-Code" or "Lean Tech" stack you’ve built and why you’re ready to help MINDSET level up.

CATEGORY: Human Resources / Volunteer Management
CAUSES: Mental Health / Men
ROLE TYPE: Volunteer (Remote)

JOIN MINDSET:

THE ROLE:
As our Volunteering Lead, you are the gatekeeper of the MINDSET culture. You’ll be responsible for finding the right "Mission Leaders" and "Digital Architects", ensuring they have the DBS checks, training, and support they need to lead without burning out.

WHAT YOU'LL DO:

• Recruit the Squad: Turn our "Mission Leader" adverts into a high-performing team of doers.

THE ROLE:
As our Training Lead, you are the architect of our "Mission Readiness" programme. You’ll take our "Action-First" philosophy and turn it into practical, bite-sized training modules. You aren’t teaching people how to be therapists—you’re teaching them how to facilitate connection while doing.

WHAT YOU'LL DO:

THE ROLE:
As our Safeguarding Lead, you are the guardian of our community’s wellbeing. You’ll be responsible for creating a safeguarding culture that fits our non-clinical vibe—ensuring our volunteers (Mission Leaders) know exactly how to handle disclosures, identify risks, and protect vulnerable adults while on a mountain or in a workshop.
