Reports to: Chief Content Officer

Supporting men in crisis, saving lives: James’ Place provides vital, life-saving therapy when it’s needed most. Join James' Place as a Trustee and help us transform support for men in suicidal crisis.

Applications close at: 9 a.m. Monday 24th February 2025.

Location: Flexible within the UK

About James’ Place

James’ Place Charity was set up by Clare Milford Haven and Nick Wentworth-Stanley in 2008 after their twenty-one-year-old son, James, died by suicide ten days after a minor operation. James had no history of mental illness or depression and had sought urgent help for anxiety and suicidal thoughts but didn’t find it. We know that suicide is the biggest killer of men under 50, and we know that many men find it difficult to reach out for help.

James’ Place was set up to make the experience of finding help as easy as possible. James’ Place offers men who are experiencing a suicidal crisis a brief, intensive, therapeutic intervention in a safe environment. Men who walk through the door at James’ Place will be in a space where they feel valued and respected.

We have been chosen as one of the charities for The Times and The Sunday Times Christmas Appeal 2024 and we were also thrilled to win two awards at the Royal Society for Public Health and Wellbeing Awards, winning the Public Health Minister’s Award for our innovation and strong academic focus on prevention and inclusion, as well as our regional spread and scale.

The need

Suicide is the leading single cause of death of men under 50, and more men of middle age die by suicide than other causes; 75% of all deaths by suicide are men. History shows that in times of uncertainty and economic hardship, rates of suicide increase. Deprivation, financial insecurity, and unmanageable debt are strongly associated with an increased risk of suicide in men (Samaritans). The pandemic only increased hardship and put people under more significant pressure, and the current cost of living crisis is exacerbating this further.

We know that each death by suicide results in a lifetime of devastation for families, friends and communities, and research shows that for every individual death by suicide, around 135 people are affected.

A person bereaved by suicide is 65% more likely to take their own life than if they were bereaved by another cause, and it has been estimated that every suicide costs the public purse around £1.46m.

About the roles

As we look forward to another year ahead, we are looking to grow and strengthen our board of trustees to govern our growth ambition as we enter the next stage of our development — finding a location for our new centre in Birmingham, driving forward our plans to reach more men, and of course helping as many men in crisis as we can.

Who we are looking for

We are looking for new Trustees to join our board to complement the skills and expertise of our existing members. If you share our values and are passionate about what we do, we’d love to hear from you.

We are particularly keen to hear from individuals with knowledge of strategic clinical services and those with significant charitable experience.

In addition, we welcome individuals with expertise in other areas, such as marketing, communications, public relations, or finance. We are keen for our board to reflect the communities we serve, so we strongly encourage interest from people with lived experience relevant to our work and those from diverse backgrounds.

Applications for this role close at 9 a.m. Monday 24th February 2025.

The Medical Research Foundation is looking to appoint a trustee, with Board-level communications or marketing experience, to join our Board of Trustees.

Many of the diseases and conditions that affect human health have been cured or overcome as a result of medical research, but there will always be more to do and there are areas of medical need that receive little or no support – and people’s lives that see no improvement. That’s where we step in. The Medical Research Foundation is an independent charitable foundation, investing the power of our donations to change medicine and change lives.

This year we launched a five-year strategy for 2024-2029 that focuses on changing the health of children and young people, those with neglected mental health conditions and those whose health will be impacted by the changing climate. Our strategy is underpinned by a focus on planetary health. In addition to focusing our research funding in this area, we have taken steps to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions and increase the environmental sustainability of our work. Our aim is to reach net zero in our activities and to influence the activities of others that we work with and fund to be more environmentally sustainable.

The Medical Research Foundation is overseen by a Board of Trustees who have ultimate responsibility for directing the charity, its assets and activities. We are looking to complement the current strengths of our Board with a trustee who has Board-level experience working within communications or marketing, who will help us achieve this vision and deliver on our five-year strategy to give hope through medical research. Ideally you will be familiar with the principles of corporate governance in the public or charitable sector.

Diversity and inclusion are a priority for us, and we encourage and welcome applications from people of all backgrounds. Trustees are supported throughout their appointment with training and development opportunities, and we welcome applications from individuals are who new to charity trusteeship.

The Board typically meets four times a year, either virtually or in Central London. As part of their appointment, trustees are also asked to sit on the Board’s committees and attend occasional evening events. The position is voluntary and not remunerated, although reasonable expenses are paid, such as travel and childcare while attending our meetings and events.

The appointment will commence in June 2025 for a three-year term in the first instance.

We’ve been supporting the Armed Forces community since 1885. Our clients may have served in WW2 or in a more recent conflict like the Falklands or Afghanistan.

There are SSAFA branches throughout the UK and overseas who support local volunteers to deliver services to veterans, serving personnel and their families. Some branches are divided into smaller divisions to ensure the best local service delivery. Each branch has a team of volunteer caseworkers, support volunteers, executive roles, and fundraisers.

Our clients, volunteers and supporters come from all backgrounds and age groups and want to engage with us in different ways too. To offer the best possible service we need to provide seamless communication, consistent messages, and accurate information. We’d love to hear from you if think you could help us grow our on-line presence.

When would you be needed and where would you be based?

As part of your local branch, you might have access to an office, but many volunteers are based at home.

The role would suit someone looking for a flexible volunteering opportunity as times and days could fit in around work and other commitments to suit you.

What would you be doing?

• As part of a team of volunteers, maintain branch microsites and social media feeds.
• Look at ways to increase traffic to microsites and improve SSAFA’s digital brand.
• Keep content current and accurate.
• Support and maintain the SSAFA brand by consistently using our brand guidelines and tone of voice.
• Working with the digital marketing team, interpret analytical data to develop local communication plans.
• Working with local SSAFA branches, build social media channels and integrate on-line and off-line activity to best effect.

The remit of this role may change over the next 12-18 months depending on the outcome of a trial currently being undertaken.

• Develop contacts, skills and opportunities working with influential people and organisations.
• Improve and develop your digital skills, useful in all aspects of your life.
• Support and friendship in your local area and the wider SSAFA community
• Better physical and mental health – studies show that volunteers live longer and experience lower levels of stress and depression!

What training and support would you receive?

• Support from our Digital Marketing team based at SSAFA Central Office.
• Training on our web platform

• Induction covering all the aspects of SSAFAs services and the difference we can make to people’s lives.

Could you help SSAFA reach more supporters and raise greater awareness of our services through the magic of social media and digital marketing? You don’t need a military background, just some basic digital skills, the ability to get on with a wide range of people and good written English. If you have I.T or digital marketing experience, that would be great but not essential. We’d love you to get in touch to find out more.
