Company/Charity Secretary on the Board of Trustees (VOLUNTEER ROLE)

Company/Charity Secretary (Volunteer Trustee Role)

Help Us Build a Charity That Connects the Forgotten and Uplifts the Invisible

Loneliness is a quiet ache. It doesn’t always cry out—but it weighs heavy. In London, thousands of people are living in isolation, and the consequences are profound: deteriorating mental health, loss of confidence, and a fading sense of purpose.

SUNSHINE is a brand new, 100% volunteer-run grassroots charity dedicated to changing that. We’re creating spaces where people feel seen, heard, and valued. But before we can deliver life-changing programmes, we need a strong, ethical, and well-governed foundation. That’s where you come in.

Why This Role Matters

Behind every compassionate charity is a Company Secretary who ensures clarity, compliance, and continuity. As our Company/Charity Secretary, you’ll be the anchor of our governance—making sure our mission is supported by structure, our values are reflected in our operations, and our trustees are empowered to lead with confidence.

This is a trustee role with real heart. You’ll help us stay legally sound, ethically grounded, and emotionally attuned to the communities we serve.

What You’ll Do

• Ensure SUNSHINE meets its legal and regulatory obligations as a UK charity.

• Support the Board of Trustees with meeting coordination, documentation, and decision-making processes.

• Maintain accurate records and filings with Companies House and the Charity Commission.

• Help shape policies that reflect our values of inclusion, dignity, and transparency.

• Be a guiding voice in our governance, helping us grow with integrity.

What You’ll Bring

• Experience in charity governance, administration, or legal compliance (professional or volunteer).

• A meticulous eye for detail and a heart for grassroots change.

• Strong communication and organisational skills.

• A belief in the power of structure to support compassion.

What You’ll Gain

• A meaningful role in launching a charity that transforms lives.

• The satisfaction of knowing your work is enabling real connection and healing.

• A team of visionary changemakers who value your expertise and care.

• Purpose, legacy, and the joy of building something beautiful from the ground up.

Let’s build a charity that’s as strong as it is kind. Let’s be the sunshine.
