ROLE TITLE: Volunteering Lead – Men’s Mental Growth Movement
CATEGORY: Human Resources / Volunteer Management
CAUSES: Mental Health / Men
ROLE TYPE: Volunteer (Remote)

JOIN MINDSET:
A movement is only as strong as its squad. At MINDSET, we don’t do "clinical." we do action, challenge, and real-world connection. We’re a new, volunteer-powered CIO, and we need a Volunteering Lead to recruit, onboard, and protect the men who make our missions happen.

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 Onboarding Journey: Create a seamless, "no-fluff" induction process that gets volunteers ready for action.
• Safety & Compliance: Oversee DBS checks via uCheck and ensure everyone understands our Safeguarding Policies.
• Culture Keeper: Make sure our volunteers feel valued, heard, and part of the brotherhood.

WHO YOUR ARE:

• An HR pro, recruiter, or experienced volunteer manager who "gets" our non-clinical vibe.
• Someone who can spot a "Mission Leader" in a crowd of "Therapists."
• A volunteer who wants to build the people-infrastructure for a national movement.

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 over your up-to-date CV and Tell us how you’d find a "Mission Leader" who’s never volunteered before, and why you’re ready to lead the MINDSET squad.

ROLE TITLE: Training Lead (Learning & Mission Readiness) – Men’s Mental Growth Movement
CATEGORY: Education & Training / Strategy & Development
CAUSES: Mental Health / Men
ROLE TYPE: Volunteer (Remote)

JOIN MINDSET:
Most charity training is a box-ticking exercise. We don’t do that. MINDSET is an action-first CIO that trades clinical "talk" for real-world challenge. We need a Training Lead to build the playbook that turns our volunteers into elite Mission Leaders.

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 Playbook: Develop the "Mission Leader" induction (how to lead a hike/workshop the MINDSET way).
• Safety First: Create "Real-World Safeguarding" modules—how to spot a man in crisis during an activity and what to do next.
• The Language: Work with The Storyteller to train volunteers in our non-clinical "Pub Test" communication style.
• Digital Learning: Set up a lean LMS (Learning Management System) or a simple Notion training hub.

WHO YOU ARE:

• Someone who can translate "mental health theory" into "practical action."
• A volunteer who believes that the best training happens "on the job."

CATEGORY: Social Care / Health & Wellbeing / Legal & Compliance
CAUSES: Mental Health / Men / Social Care
ROLE TYPE: Volunteer (Remote)

JOIN MINDSET:
At MINDSET, we push boundaries. We trade the clinical "waiting room" for real-world challenges, hikes, and workshops. But "high-impact" doesn't mean "high-risk." We need a Safeguarding Lead to build the safety architecture that allows our brothers to grow without compromise.

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.

WHAT YOU'LL DO:

• The Blueprint: Draft and maintain our Safeguarding Adults Policy.
• The Incident Room: Act as the Designated Safeguarding Lead (DSL) for any concerns raised during missions.
• Mission Safety: Work with those on the frontline to ensure "action" events are risk-assessed but remain engaging.
• Compliance: Ensure we meet all DBS requirements for a UK CIO.

WHO YOU ARE:

• A safeguarding professional, social worker, or compliance expert.
• Someone who understands that "safety" shouldn't kill "spirit."
• A volunteer who wants to ensure men’s mental health is handled with the highest level of integrity.

COMMITMENT: 

This is a volunteer role with no set hours. While we would ideally appreciate a committment of 2–3 hours per week (plus on-call support for incidents), we are fully flexible around your other life commitments. You are free to stop volunteering at any time.

APPLY: 

Send over your up-to-date CV and Tell us how you’d keep a group of men safe on a remote hike while maintaining a "stigma-free" environment.

CATEGORY: Admin / PA / Secretarial / Operations
CAUSES: Mental Health / Men
ROLE TYPE: Volunteer (Remote)

JOIN MINDSET:
Behind every great mission is a rock-solid base of operations. MINDSET is an action-first, volunteer-powered CIO that trades clinical "waiting rooms" for real-world challenges. We don’t want a "secretary"—we want an Admin Lead to be the heartbeat of our infrastructure.

THE ROLE:
As our Admin Lead, you are the glue. You’ll be responsible for keeping our digital workshop tidy, managing our Google Workspace, coordinating trustee meetings, and ensuring our "Mission Leaders" have everything they need to lead.

WHAT YOU'LL DO:

• Mission Logistics: Manage the central calendar for all volunteer events and deadlines.
• The Hub: Maintain our platforms "Mission Control" so everyone knows what’s happening and when.
• Compliance Support: Help the Trustees keep our Charity Commission filings and insurance documents up to date.
• The Inbox: Act as the first point of contact for new squad inquiries, directing them to the right lead.

WHO YOUR ARE:

• An organised pro who loves a clean system and a clear process.
• Someone who can spot a "to-do" before it becomes a "problem."
• A volunteer who wants to build the administrative engine of a national movement.

COMMITMENT: 

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

Can you help a visually impaired adult experience the joys and freedoms of cycling?

We’re looking for people to volunteer as front riders for our Two’s Company group rides!

About this role

As a volunteer front rider, you’ll assist our visually impaired back riders by piloting a tandem bicycle on cycle paths and the countryside around Bristol.

Many of the participants cannot ride a bike independently. Group tandem rides are a great way to connect with others while experiencing the countryside through its sounds, scents, and the exhilaration of cycling together.

The rides are very sociable, and we usually stop at a café or pub for lunch. If you enjoy meeting and chatting with new people, you’ll be a perfect fit!

About the rides

Each year we run rides between March and October, mostly at weekends, but with occasional weekdays or evening rides. The rides are pitched at different levels -gentle, intermediate, and advanced - to enable people of all abilities and fitness levels to participate. Front riders are matched to a different back rider every ride, and each ride has a trained group Ride Leader.

About you

To be a front rider, you should be a strong and experienced cyclist - but no prior tandem experience is required as training is provided. We also ask that you commit to a minimum of three rides a year.

To be a front rider, you should also fit the following criteria:

• Be 18+ years of age
• Be able to cycle long distances (20 – 30 miles)
• Be friendly, outgoing and a good communicator
• Treat visually impaired people on an equal, non-patronising basis
• Be at least 5’6” (168 cm), so you can comfortably pilot our tandems
• Be able to attend induction and training sessions - we do have some adaptability though, so please ask if you are struggling to meet the dates and times offered or have any other specific requirements.

DBS (Disclosure and Barring Service) checks are required for our front riders whilst volunteering as part of supervised group rides.

To help you settle in as a front rider, we’ll provide the following training:

• Practical tandem training
• Visual impairment training
• Safeguarding training
• Disability training
