Wellbeing Services Manager (WITH EXPERIENCE) - (VOLUNTEER ROLE)

Become a Wellbeing Services Manager at SUNSHINE (Volunteer Role)

Shape the wellbeing support that helps people feel seen, valued, and connected across London.

Loneliness is one of the quietest crises of our time — but at SUNSHINE, we believe in rewriting that story. We are a new loneliness and wellbeing charity with a bold mission: to bring people together, spark joy, nurture belonging, and create spaces where everyone feels seen, valued, and connected.

Our charity application is submitted. Our Trustees are in place. Our first pilot programmes are ready to launch. Now we are looking for someone compassionate, thoughtful, and grounded to help shape the wellbeing support at the heart of SUNSHINE.

This is not just a volunteer role. This is a chance to build the emotional and wellbeing foundations of a new movement.

Could you be our Wellbeing Services Manager?

We’re searching for someone who understands the importance of emotional safety — someone who knows that wellbeing grows when people feel listened to, supported, and welcomed without judgement.

You might be perfect for this if you bring:

• Warmth, empathy, and a natural ability to support others

• An interest or background in wellbeing, mental health, community support, or pastoral care

• Good organisation and communication skills

• A calm, reassuring presence and strong interpersonal awareness

• A collaborative spirit and a desire to help build something meaningful from the ground up

• A commitment to safe, compassionate, person‑centred practice

As a Wellbeing Services Manager, you’ll work closely with our Head of SUNSHINE Services, our Head of Volunteering & Training, and our Founder & CEO to ensure that every SUNSHINE programme feels safe, supportive, and emotionally nourishing.

What you’ll help us build

• A warm, safe wellbeing environment across all SUNSHINE programmes and activities.

• Guidance and support for volunteers, helping them feel confident when supporting participants.

• Clear wellbeing processes, including check‑ins, signposting, and safe practice.

• Supportive spaces where participants can share, connect, and feel uplifted.

• A culture of compassion, dignity, and emotional care at the heart of SUNSHINE’s work.

• A wellbeing approach that grows with the needs of communities across London.

Your care, insight, and leadership will help ensure that every person who walks into a SUNSHINE space feels held, supported, and valued.

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

If you’re someone who leads with kindness, listens deeply, and wants to help shape wellbeing support that truly brightens lives, we would love to meet you.

Ready to help us bring more SUNSHINE into the world?

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