Loneliness Awareness Campaign Manager (Volunteer Role)

SUNSHINE Charity – Ending Loneliness for Londoners and Beyond

Do you believe no one should feel alone?

At SUNSHINE Charity, we’re a grassroots, volunteer‑powered start‑up building something bold, hopeful, and deeply human — a movement to end loneliness for Londoners and, one day, far beyond. We’re at the very beginning of our journey, and what we build now will shape everything that comes next.

To spark a city‑wide conversation about loneliness — to break the stigma, raise awareness, and inspire action — we need someone extraordinary.

We need you!!!

Why This Role Matters

Loneliness is silent, but its impact is loud. It affects mental health, physical wellbeing, confidence, and hope. Yet despite its scale, loneliness often remains hidden — misunderstood, unspoken, and overlooked.

Awareness is the first step toward change.

As our Loneliness Awareness Campaign Manager, you will help bring this invisible issue into the light. You will shape the stories, messages, and campaigns that help people understand loneliness — and understand that they are not alone.

Your work will help someone feel seen. Your campaigns will help someone feel understood. Your leadership will help someone feel less alone.

What You’ll Lead

This is not just a role — it’s a chance to build something meaningful from the ground up.

You will:

• Design and lead SUNSHINE’s loneliness awareness campaigns, from concept to delivery.

• Create powerful messaging and storytelling that challenges stigma and sparks empathy.

• Develop campaign strategies across social media, community outreach, partnerships, and events.

• Collaborate with marketing, service, and volunteer teams to amplify our mission.

• Build relationships with community groups, local organisations, and media partners to expand our reach.

• Monitor engagement and impact, ensuring campaigns are meaningful, inclusive, and effective.

• Champion the voices of people with lived experience, ensuring their stories shape the narrative.

This is a role for someone who believes awareness can change hearts — and change lives.

Who You Are

You’re someone who:

• Cares deeply about people, community, and social change.

• Believes in the power of storytelling and public awareness.

• Has experience in campaigning, communications, marketing, advocacy, or community engagement.

• Thrives in start‑up environments where creativity and initiative matter.

• Wants to build something that will grow long after the first foundations are laid.

• Is motivated by purpose — by the chance to make a difference that truly matters.

Most importantly, you’re someone who wants to help people feel understood, supported, and connected.

Why Join SUNSHINE?

Because this is your chance to:

• Shape the public conversation around loneliness.

• Build campaigns that inspire empathy, action, and hope.

• Work alongside passionate, hopeful, determined people.

• Know that your work directly helps end loneliness.

• Be part of something bigger than all of us.

Your campaigns will help someone realise they’re not alone. Your voice will help someone feel understood. Your leadership will help someone feel connected again.

We Need You — Now

We are at the beginning of our journey, and awareness will be the spark that helps us grow. If you’ve ever wanted to use your skills to create real, lasting change, this is the moment.

If your heart is saying “yes,” then you have a heart of gold — and we want to hear from you.
