TRAINING & DEVELOPMENT VOLUNTEER (MINDSET Charity)

Shape the Training. Shape the Standards. Shape the Future.

MINDSET is a bold new preventative mental‑fitness charity for teenage boys and men in London — launching this November. We’re building a modern, high‑energy, stigma‑free space where men learn the habits, systems, and psychological tools to stay strong long before crisis hits.

To make this mission real, we need a Training & Development Volunteer who can help us build the backbone of our organisation: the training systems that prepare every volunteer to deliver our programmes safely, confidently, and with impact.

If you’re passionate about coaching, personal development, and empowering others to grow — this is your moment.

THE ROLE: TRAINING & DEVELOPMENT VOLUNTEER (Volunteer) - HYBRID

We’re looking for someone who can design and deliver simple, effective, modern training experiences for our volunteer team. You’ll help create the learning culture that defines MINDSET — energetic, practical, stigma‑free, and focused on real‑world skills.

You’ll lead on:

• Designing micro‑training modules for new volunteers (Motivational Interviewing basics, boundaries, communication, safeguarding awareness).

• Creating onboarding training sessions that feel modern, inspiring, and easy to follow.

• Developing short digital learning resources (slides, guides, videos, checklists).

• Supporting volunteers as they learn our 12‑week Mental Fitness Programme.

• Helping build a culture of growth, confidence, and continuous improvement.

• Ensuring volunteers understand the difference between coaching and therapy.

• Embedding the MINDSET ethos into every training experience.

Your work will directly shape how every volunteer shows up — how they coach, how they communicate, how they support boys and men through our programme.

WHO WE’RE LOOKING FOR

We’re looking for someone who:

• Loves breaking down ideas into simple, practical steps.

• Has experience in coaching, personal development, youth work, or training.

• Enjoys creating engaging learning materials.

• Can bring energy and positivity into group sessions.

• Understands the importance of boundaries and safe practice.

• Wants to help build a charity from the ground up.

• Can commit a few hours a week between now and November.

If you’re the kind of person who naturally lifts others up and helps them perform at their best, you’ll thrive here.

WHY JOIN MINDSET?

1. Because you’ll shape how every volunteer learns and grows.

Your training will define the quality, confidence, and impact of our entire team.

2. Because our culture is modern, bold, and inspiring.

Think Gymshark, Huel, MyProtein — not a traditional charity training manual.

3. Because your work will change lives.

Every volunteer you train will help boys and men build habits that keep them strong.

4. Because you’ll be part of a founding team.

Your training systems will influence how MINDSET grows for years to come.

WHAT YOU’LL GET

• Real experience designing training for a fast‑moving charity start‑up.

• A chance to shape the learning culture of a brand‑new organisation.

• A supportive, passionate team who value your ideas.

• Flexible volunteering you can fit around your life.

VOLUNTEER GRAPHIC DESIGNER (MINDSET Charity) - REMOTE 

Help Us Launch a Movement This November

MINDSET is a bold new preventative mental fitness charity for teenage boys and men in London — and we’re launching this November. We’re building a modern, high‑energy, stigma‑free space where men learn the habits, systems, and psychological tools to stay strong long before crisis hits.

To bring this mission to life, we need a creative powerhouse — a Graphic Designer who can help us shape the visual identity of a charity built to feel more like a fitness brand than a traditional organisation.

If you want your work to matter, to inspire, and to change lives, this is your moment.

THE ROLE: GRAPHIC DESIGNER (Volunteer)

We’re looking for a designer who can help us create a suite of high‑impact visuals that will define our launch. You’ll be part of a small, passionate team building something genuinely needed in London.

You’ll help us design:

• Roller Banners for school programmes and community events.

• Merchandise (t‑shirts, hoodies, wristbands, stickers).

• Launch Graphics for November 2026.

• Social Media Assets that feel modern, bold, and motivational.

• Printed Materials (flyers, posters, guides and booklets).

• Digital Templates for our 12‑week mental fitness programme.

• Brand Elements that strengthen our identity and message.

Your work will be seen by schools, partners, funders, teenage boys, and men across London — and will directly support our mission to prevent silent suffering and build stronger futures.

WHO WE’RE LOOKING FOR

You don’t need decades of experience. You don’t need agency credentials. You just need skill, passion, and a desire to build something meaningful.

We’re looking for someone who:

• Loves creating clean, modern, bold designs.

• Can work with brand guidelines (or help us refine them).

• Enjoys fast‑paced, start‑up style collaboration.

• Wants their work to have real social impact.

• Can commit a few hours a week between now and November.

• Is excited by the idea of shaping a charity’s visual identity from day one.

If you’re the kind of designer who gets fired up by purpose‑driven projects, you’ll fit right in.

WHY JOIN MINDSET?

1. Because your designs will change lives.

Every banner, every graphic, every piece of merchandise helps us reach boys and men who desperately need preventative support.

2. Because we operate like a modern brand.

Think Gymshark, Huel, or MyProtein — clean lines, bold messaging, high energy. Not clinical. Not corporate. Not outdated.

3. Because you’ll be part of a founding team.

Your creativity will help define how MINDSET looks, feels, and communicates for years to come.

4. Because this is meaningful work.

We’re building a movement that exists to stop preventable tragedies. Your designs will help us reach the men who need us most.

WHAT YOU’LL GET

• A chance to build a full brand suite for a new charity.

• Portfolio‑ready work with real‑world impact.

BUILD SOMETHING THAT CHANGES MEN’S LIVES IN LONDON

MINDSET Charity

Trustee Recruitment (Volunteer Roles)

Chair • Treasurer • Fundraising Trustee • Safeguarding Lead • Strategy & Development Trustees

WE’RE NOT LOOKING FOR TRADITIONAL TRUSTEES. WE’RE LOOKING FOR BUILDERS.

MINDSET is a bold, preventative mental fitness charity for teenage boys and men in London. We don’t do clinical therapy. We don’t sit on couches. We build systems, habits, and psychological tools that help men stay strong long before crisis hits.

We exist because too many good men have been breaking in silence. Our founder lived that reality — losing his father and close friends to battles they were never given the tools to fight. Their stories became our mission: no more preventable exits. No more silent suffering. No more men fighting alone.

Now we’re building a movement. A training ground. A new standard for male mental fitness.

And to launch this charity with strength, focus, and integrity, we need a small, high‑energy, high‑impact Trustee Board who can help us build MINDSET from the ground up.

THE ROLES WE’RE RECRUITING

1. Chair of Trustees

A steady, strategic leader who can guide our early direction, keep us aligned with our mission, and help us build a strong, safe, compliant organisation. You’ll be the anchor of our governance and the champion of our preventative mental fitness vision.

2. Treasurer

A numbers‑driven, detail‑focused trustee with UK accounting experience who can help us build lean, efficient financial systems. You’ll ensure our budgets, reporting, and financial planning are rock‑solid as we grow.

3. Fundraising & Grants Trustee

A proactive connector who can open doors, build partnerships, and secure funding. You’ll lead our grants strategy, donor relationships, and fundraising campaigns to fuel our 12‑week programmes. You'll also lead our board in fundraising areas and matters.

4. Safeguarding Lead Trustee

A calm, experienced safeguarding professional who ensures our boys and men are protected at every step. You’ll help us build safe systems, strong policies, and a culture of responsibility. You'll also lead our board in safeguarding areas and matters.

Additional Trustees (Various Specialisms)

We’re also seeking trustees with experience in:

• Strategy & organisational development

• Mental health, wellbeing, coaching or personal development

• Monitoring, evaluation & impact measurement

• Youth work or education

• Digital operations & community building

• Start‑up charities or early‑stage organisations

If you bring clarity, energy, and a passion for helping men and boys build stronger futures, we want you on our team.

WHY JOIN MINDSET?

1. Because this isn’t a passive board role — it’s a founding mission.

You’ll help shape the charity’s identity, culture, and long‑term direction.

2. Because our model is modern, lean, and high‑impact.

We operate like a fitness brand, not a slow-moving charity. Fast execution. Clean systems. High energy.

3. Because every decision you make will change real lives.

Every metric we track represents a boy, a father, a mate — staying in the game.

4. Because we’re building something West London genuinely needs.

A stigma‑free, practical, preventative space where men and boys learn to build habits, not hide feelings.

WHAT WE ASK OF YOU

• Attend in‑person meetings in London (especially early on for Charity Commission documents).

• Bring your skills, your ideas, your networks, and your leadership.

• Help us build strong governance, safe systems, and a scalable model.

• Champion our mission and represent MINDSET with passion, including helping us spread our social media presence by liking and sharing our posts.

• Commit to a role that genuinely matters.
