Photographer / Filmmaker - VOLUNTEER ROLE
Help us bring SUNSHINE to life through powerful images, film clips, and human stories
London is one of the most electric, fast-paced cities on Earth. Yet beneath the energy, a quiet crisis is unfolding.
Across the city, thousands of adults experience chronic loneliness and isolation every single day.
SUNSHINE exists to change that — boldly, joyfully, and unapologetically.
We bring positivity, warmth, and human connection into the lives of people who need it most.
To raise our profile, tell our story, and reach those who feel alone, we need powerful visuals. And that’s where you come in.
We’re looking for Photographer / Filmmaker Volunteers to help us capture the heart of SUNSHINE — our people, our programmes, our impact, and the lived experiences of those facing loneliness.
What You’ll Do
1. Capture SUNSHINE Across London
Head out into the city — parks, streets, markets, neighbourhoods — to capture photos and film clips of loneliness or positive human connection that reflect London’s diversity, energy, and humanity.
2. Document Our Activities
Attend SUNSHINE Programmes and events to photograph or film real moments of connection, joy, courage, and community.
3. Build Our Visual Library
Create a unique, high-quality collection of images and short video clips that we can use across our website, publicity materials, social media, and fundraising campaigns.
4. Tell Human Stories
Help us visually communicate the reality of loneliness — and the hope, positivity, and transformation that SUNSHINE brings.
5. Support Our Digital Presence
Work with our marketing volunteers to produce short clips, reels, TikToks, and social-ready visuals that raise our profile and inspire people to join us.
Who We Need
1. A Visual Storyteller
You see emotion, humanity, and narrative through a lens — and you know how to capture it.
2. Creative & Curious
You enjoy exploring London, finding interesting moments, and experimenting with angles, light, and movement.
3. Reliable & Independent
You’re comfortable working solo, planning your shoots, and delivering high-quality content consistently.
4. Empathetic & Purpose-Driven
You believe visuals can change hearts, shift stigma, and help lonely people feel seen and supported.
5. Tech-Friendly
Whether you use a DSLR, mirrorless camera, or smartphone, you know how to capture strong images or clips and edit them into something beautiful.
Why Volunteer With SUNSHINE?
1. Creative Freedom
No corporate restrictions. You can experiment, explore, and create bold, bright, human-centred visuals.
2. Portfolio-Ready Work
Your photos and videos will be used across a fast-growing London charity — a powerful addition to any creative portfolio.
3. Real Human Impact
Your visuals will help isolated individuals discover SUNSHINE, feel safe enough to join us, and take their first step out of loneliness.
4. Supportive Team
You’ll collaborate with our Founder and creative volunteers who value your talent and vision.
5. Pure Joy
You’ll capture floating bubbles, warm smiles, shared laughter, and moments of connection that genuinely change lives.
Ready to Help Us Tell London’s Most Important Human Story?
If you want to use your photography or filmmaking skills to help lonely people feel seen, supported, and connected, we’d love to meet you.
Let’s make something beautiful together.
