Volunteer roles for the Health sector

Our partner is a UK-based health justice charity working to improve health and wellbeing by addressing issues such as housing, energy, migration and state violence.

The Treasurer will join the Board of Trustees and provide oversight of financial management and governance. Working closely with the Executive Director and Head of Finance, the role includes monitoring financial performance, supporting budgeting and reporting, ensuring appropriate controls are in place, and helping trustees interpret financial information. You will also advise on the financial implications of strategy and support strong financial decision-making at Board level.

The ideal candidate will bring strong financial expertise, with a recognised qualification or equivalent experience, and an understanding of charity finance and governance. You will be comfortable operating at Board level, able to communicate financial information clearly, and willing to contribute to wider strategic discussions. An interest in health justice or social impact would be beneficial.

This role involves four Board meetings per year, alongside some ad hoc support between meetings.

The Engine of our Mission: Join Us as Volunteer Secretary & Admin Coordinator

Every great movement needs a mission control. Could that be you?

As Unlock YOUR Potential grows from a big idea into a registered East London charity, the "behind-the-scenes" work becomes the most important part of our success. We are recruiting passionate volunteers to lead our programmes and board, and now we need an organised, detail-oriented Secretary & Admin Coordinator to keep the wheels turning.

If you love bringing order to chaos and want to use your administrative talents to help NEET adults (18+) across East London find their path, we want to meet you.

The Role: Keeping Us Moving Forward

You will be the central hub of our small team, ensuring that our communications are professional, our meetings are productive, and our records are airtight as we apply for charity status.

Your Impact will include:

• Steering the Meetings: Attending our Steering Committee meetings to take clear, actionable minutes that capture our strategic decisions.

• Managing Enquiries: Being the first point of contact for the "growing list" of passionate people responding to our recruitment ads—ensuring everyone gets a warm, timely response.

• Document Guardianship: Helping the Founder organise essential paperwork, from volunteer applications to draft policy documents.

• Process Improvement: As a founding volunteer, you’ll help us set up the inbox systems and folders we’ll use for years to come.

Is This You?

This role is perfect for someone who is highly organised and thrives on being "the person with the plan."

• Super Organised: You find joy in a clean inbox, a clear set of minutes, and a well-labelled folder.

• A Great Communicator: You can write professional, friendly emails that reflect our supportive and empowering ethos.

• Reliable & Discreet: You understand the importance of confidentiality, especially as we handle volunteer data and charity applications.

• Local Heart: You are excited about supporting a grassroots organisation making a real difference in East London.

Why Volunteer with Unlock YOUR Potential?

• Flexible & Remote: Much of this role can be done from the comfort of your home, with occasional attendance at meetings (virtual or in East London).

• Skills Development: Gain unique experience in "Charity Start-up" administration and governance.

• Be Part of the Founding Team: You aren’t just "doing admin"—you are helping to build the infrastructure of a charity that will change lives.

• Direct Impact: By handling the paperwork, you free up our mentors and coaches to focus on what they do best: helping people back into work.

Ready to help us stay on track?

If you have a few hours a week to spare and want to be the backbone of our new charity, we’d love to hear from you. Please send a short note about your admin experience and why you’re interested in supporting social mobility in East London.

Shape the Foundation: Join our Founding Steering Committee & Board

Success is built on a solid foundation. Help us lay the first stones.

At Unlock YOUR Potential, we are driven by a singular goal: ensuring that every adult in East London has the support they need to move from NEET (Not in Education, Employment, or Training) into a fulfilling career. We have the vision and the community energy—now, we need the strategic minds to govern our growth.

We are seeking 3–5 Founding Steering Committee Members (Interim Trustees), including a dedicated Treasurer, to provide the oversight and expertise required to transition us into a fully registered charity.

The Mission: Strategic Guardianship

As a member of our Steering Committee, you won’t just be "attending meetings." You will be the architects of our legal and financial framework, ensuring we are robust, compliant, and ready to scale.

We are looking for specific expertise in the following areas:

• Financial Leadership (Treasurer): We need a volunteer with a background in accounting or finance to oversee our budget, manage initial seed funding, and establish the financial transparency required for charity registration.

• Legal & Governance: An individual to guide us through the Charity Commission application, help draft our constitution, and ensure our policies (from Safeguarding to GDPR) are airtight.

• Lived Experience Advocate: Someone who has personally navigated the barriers to employment or education. Your voice is vital to ensuring our programmes remain authentic and effective for the people we serve.

• Strategic Growth: A generalist with experience in scaling small organisations or social enterprises who can help us map out our 3-year impact plan.

Your Impact

This is a high-level advisory role that directly enables our frontline work. By volunteering your professional skills, you are:

1. Securing our Status: Directly assisting in the successful application for UK Charity Status.

2. Mitigating Risk: Ensuring that as we grow, we do so safely, ethically, and sustainably.

3. Empowering the Team: Providing a "safety net" and soundboard for our Founder and Head of Programmes.

Is This You?

• You are a professional looking to use your "board-level" skills for social good.

• You have a deep commitment to social mobility and the East London community.

• You can commit to a monthly meeting (virtual or in East London) plus 2-4 hours of remote advisory work.

• You enjoy the "early-stage" challenge of building a brand-new organisation.

Why Join the Steering Committee?

• Founding Influence: Have a direct say in the values, ethics, and direction of a new charity.

• Governance Experience: Perfect for those looking to transition into non-executive director or formal Trustee roles.

• Community Connection: Work alongside like-minded professionals and community leaders dedicated to East London’s future.

They say a picture is worth a thousand words. We need you to help us tell a story of transformation.

At Unlock YOUR Potential, we are building a movement to empower NEET adults (18+) across East London. We have the mission, the passion, and the drive—now, we need the visual spark to make our voice heard.

We are looking for a creative Volunteer Graphic Designer to help us build our brand from the ground up. Whether you are looking for a high-impact one-off project to sharpen your portfolio or a regular role to help us grow, your work will become the face of social mobility in our community.

The Canvas: Our Brand, Your Vision

We are a small organisation with a big heart, and we’re sticking to our bold Orange roots. Why? Because orange represents energy, optimism, and the "stop-and-look" urgency that our mission demands.

What you’ll be building:

• The Blueprint: Helping us refine and standardise our Logo and Brand Identity so we look as professional as the services we provide.

• Digital Presence: Creating social media assets and website graphics that grab attention and inspire sign-ups.

• The "Paper Trail": Designing print-ready flyers, posters, and brochures to reach adults in local community hubs and Jobcentres.

• Impact Reports: Visualising data and success stories that will help us secure our official charity status.

Are You the One?

We aren’t looking for "just a designer"—we’re looking for a storyteller who uses shapes, fonts, and that signature orange to spark hope.

• The Creative: You have an eye for clean, modern design and a portfolio that proves it.

• The Communicator: You can take our core values—empowerment, community, and growth—and translate them into a visual language.

• The Tech-Savvy: You’re comfortable with the Adobe Creative Suite, Canva, or Figma.

• The Local Hero: You love East London and want to use your skills to give back to your neighbours.

Why Volunteer With Us?

• Creative Freedom: Help set the visual tone for a brand-new organisation.

• Social Impact: See your designs on the streets of East London, helping real people access career coaching and wellbeing support.

Build the Bridge to What’s Possible: Join Us as Head of Volunteering - VOLUNTEER ROLE

They say the first step is the hardest. We need you to make sure no one has to take it alone.

In East London, there is a massive pool of untapped brilliance—adults who are NEET (Not in Education, Employment, or Training). These are individuals with dreams, skills, and potential, often held back by systemic barriers and a lack of a professional network.

At Unlock YOUR Potential, we are a growing social mobility charity dedicated to changing that narrative. We are looking for a visionary Head of Volunteering to join our founding team and build the engine that will drive our mission forward.

The Vision: From "Hard-to-Reach" to "Hard-to-Ignore"

We don't just want a "volunteer list"—we want a movement. As our Head of Volunteering, you will be the architect of a world-class volunteering programme designed specifically to support adults in their journey toward meaningful employment and education.

Your Mission:

• Lead the Strategy: Design and implement a robust recruitment strategy to attract high-calibre mentors, coaches, and industry experts.

• Create the Blueprint: Build the systems for seamless onboarding, ensuring our volunteers are trained to handle the unique challenges and sensitivities of working with NEET adults.

• Cultivate a Culture of Impact: Develop retention initiatives that keep our volunteers engaged, making them feel like true partners in our participants' success stories.

• Shape the Legacy: As a key leader in a small, hungry organisation awaiting charity status, your voice will directly influence our long-term growth and social impact.

Who You Are:

You are a leader who understands that social mobility isn't about "charity"—it's about opportunity.

• A Strategic Builder: You love the "blank canvas" phase and have the grit to build processes where none exist.

• Community-Minded: You know East London's heartbeat and can find volunteers in boardrooms, community hubs, and everywhere in between.

• People-Centric: You are an expert at managing relationships and understand how to inspire busy professionals to give their time effectively.

• Mission-Driven: You believe that being NEET is a circumstance, not a destiny, and you are ready to prove it.

Why Now?

Joining a small organisation at this stage means you won't just be a cog in a machine—you will be the person who builds the machine. You’ll have the autonomy to innovate and the satisfaction of seeing the immediate impact of your work on the lives of adults right here in our community.

Help us turn "Potential" into "Progress."

If you have the experience to lead and the heart to serve, we want to meet you. Please reach out with a summary of your experience and why social mobility for adults matters to you.
