Communications Officer (WITH EXPERIENCE) - (VOLUNTEER ROLE)

Join SUNSHINE as Our Communications Officer (Volunteer Role)

Help us spark joy, connection, and community across London — Be a SUNSHINE Volunteer and bring your Heart of Gold

Loneliness is one of the quietest challenges of our time, but at SUNSHINE, we believe in the power of people coming together to change that story — to break through the clouds with beautiful rays of warmth, belonging, and hope.

SUNSHINE is a brand new loneliness and wellbeing charity with a simple but powerful mission: to bring people together, spread joy, nurture community spirit, and create spaces where everyone feels seen, valued, and connected.

With our charity application submitted, our dedicated Board of Trustees in place, and a series of exciting pilot programmes ready to launch, we are stepping into a defining moment — and we’re looking for someone extraordinary to step in with us.

Could you be our first ever Communications Officer?

This is a rare and meaningful opportunity to help shape a charity from the ground up by crafting the voice, story, and public presence of a movement built on joy, connection, and community spirit.

We’re searching for a volunteer who brings:

• A natural flair for writing, storytelling, and clear communication.

• Creativity and confidence in shaping a charity’s public voice.

• Experience with social media, newsletters, or digital communications.

• Warmth, empathy, and a passion for community wellbeing.

• A collaborative spirit and a desire to help SUNSHINE shine brightly.

As our inaugural Communications Officer, you will lead on SUNSHINE’s communications — ensuring our message is heartfelt, consistent, and inspiring across all platforms. You will help us reach people who need us, celebrate our volunteers, and share the stories that make our movement come alive.

What you’ll help us build

• A warm, uplifting communications style that reflects SUNSHINE’s values.

• Social media content that spreads joy and builds community.

• Clear, engaging updates for volunteers, partners, and supporters.

• Messaging for campaigns, events, and pilot programmes.

• A public presence that feels human, hopeful, and community‑powered.

• A storytelling culture that celebrates connection and belonging.

This is more than a role — it’s a chance to help write the opening chapter of a charity designed to brighten lives, strengthen communities, and inspire hope across London and beyond.

Why SUNSHINE?

Because we believe in:

• Joy as a form of care

• Community as a source of strength

• Connection as a human right

• People as the heart of everything we do

• Stories as a bridge between us

If you’re someone who leads with purpose, loves crafting meaningful messages, and wants to make a real difference, we would love to meet you.

Ready to help us bring more SUNSHINE into the world?

Let’s build something beautiful together — one smile, one moment, one community at a time.
