Job description

Help launch SUNSHINE’s first programmes, events, and community services.

SUNSHINE is a brand‑new charity with a bold mission: to replace loneliness with belonging and spark a grassroots joy movement across London and beyond. We’re building something modern, warm, and full of heart — and now we’re looking for a brilliant volunteer who can help us turn ideas into real‑world action.

If you love organising, creating, leading, and bringing people together, this is your moment to help shape a charity from the ground up.

Why this role matters

We’re at the very beginning of our journey. The projects you help launch will become the blueprint for SUNSHINE’s future — the first events, the first services, the first moments where people feel seen, welcomed, and connected.

Your leadership will help us build a movement that lasts.

What you’ll do

You’ll take the lead on bringing SUNSHINE to life by:

  • Designing and launching new community projects.

  • Organising events that spark joy and connection.

  • Helping set up new services that support wellbeing and belonging.

  • Working closely with the Founder to shape our first programmes.

  • Turning creative ideas into practical, real‑world experiences.

  • Building relationships with volunteers, partners, and local communities.

This is a hands‑on, high‑impact role where you’ll see the results of your work immediately.

What we’re looking for

You must have experience, passion, initiative, and the confidence to make things happen.

You’ll thrive here if you are:

  • Organised and proactive.

  • Excited by start‑up energy.

  • A natural people‑person.

  • Creative and full of ideas.

  • Comfortable leading and taking ownership.

  • Motivated by purpose, not ego.

If you love the idea of building something meaningful from day one, you’ll fit right in.

What you’ll gain

  • A leadership role in shaping a new national charity.

  • Creative freedom and trust.

  • A warm, supportive, values‑driven environment.

  • Real responsibility and real influence.

  • The joy of seeing your work bring people together.

This is a volunteer role — but it’s also a legacy‑building role. The kind that becomes part of your story.

Ready to help launch SUNSHINE?

If you want to help build a movement that replaces loneliness with belonging, we’d love to hear from you.

 

Let’s build something beautiful together.
