Volunteer role: Online Social Host for Faith to Faithless

Faith to Faithless, part of Humanists UK, provides dedicated support to UK-based individuals who leave high-control religious groups.

The service is led largely by people with lived experience who understand the unique challenges of stepping away from a closed community. Leaving a high-control religion can be a deeply disruptive transition: people often face sudden isolation through the loss of lifelong family and social networks, and the challenge of building an independent life from scratch.

We exist to ensure that nobody has to walk that journey alone. Through peer support and social events, we create safe, welcoming spaces where people can rebuild their confidence, connect with understanding peers, and find their feet in wider society.

This is an exciting opportunity to support Faith to Faithless by contributing to our efforts to better support people who have left high-control religions, and to create an inclusive, understanding community of friends who share similar experiences.

We hold monthly online social events via Zoom for people who have left high-control religious groups. These are relaxed, informal group sessions designed for people to chat, connect, and make friends.

We are aiming to recruit a volunteer to join our current experienced host, to co-host these sessions together.
