Parents Journey UK
After seeing a gap in support for parents of children of “all ages, all stages” of childhood, we are developing a group to become a Registered Charity, Parents Journey UK.
Parenting is rewarding but doesn’t get easier: the challenges just change.
So why should parental support from groups and charities stop once your child has entered school, or enters their teenage years?
While many organisations focus on the earliest stages of parenthood, Parents Journey UK aims to also support parents well beyond those toddler years, whether that be coffee mornings for new parents or social evenings for parents of teenagers. We aim to provide ongoing support through a variety of face-to-face meets and online, with the support of local professionals.
To develop our idea further and start the formal process of Registering a Charity, we are looking for volunteers to become our first trustees.
If you have interest, experience or skills in any of the following, we want to talk with you; and if you don’t have much experience but enthusiasm about this idea, we really want to talk with you:
- Leading our group’s meetings and ensuring they are effective; coordinating the trustees’ group – you could be the Chair of our new charity.
- Coordinating our group’s money, keeping records of finances; ensuring the group complies with our financial rules – you could be the Treasurer of our new charity.
- Keeping accurate administrative records; communicating with other trustees; acting as the backbone of our group – you could be the Secretary of our new charity.
You don’t necessarily need to have done any of these voluntary roles before, as the tasks are easy-enough to learn, and in the early days of forming our charity, will be focused on Registration (and we have assistance with that process). At the same time, as trustees you will be primary in deciding and forming what this new charity does and how it does that. Because of the legal type of charity we are forming, you will not be held liable for the charity’s finances, but expected to take good care of those and of the charity’s activities; training and explanations of trustees’ duties will be provided.
Your skills & abilities that will help us:
- A strong commitment to Parents Journey UK idea, mission and values
- Good communication and teamwork
- Contribution to our strategic thinking and decision-making
- Some knowledge and abilities in social media and marketing would be helpful
- Your background in Finance, Administration, Legal, Safeguarding, or Health and Social Care, would be very useful; of course, experience in other areas is just as valued
- Previous experience as a charity trustee would be highly-valued but isn’t required
- Your willingness to give time to the charity’s activities, probably about a flexible 10 hours per month
What’s in it for you?
- The chance to use your skills in a potentially-different context
- The opportunity to make a real and lasting difference in the lives of parents
- The ability to gain experience into the creation of a charity, and insight into its governance
- An opportunity to volunteer alongside other committed trustees
- A boost to your personal and professional development, including your career and CV, if appropriate
For an informal chat and to find out more about these opportunities and our idea, contact Hayleigh Woolven via Quick Apply below
To apply, we ask for your CV and a brief Cover Letter explaining WHY you’re interested and WHAT you can bring to our newly-developing group.
Thank you!

RSPCA London South East Branch
Do you have professional expertise you could use to help a good cause? Are you passionate about animal welfare? Volunteer to take the Chair at the London South East Branch and help direct all our activities which are aimed at improving animals’ lives.
Overview of the Branch Chair opportunity
This is a fantastic opportunity to improve animal welfare by playing an instrumental part in the production, monitoring and review of our Branches development plan. You will be able to influence how we raise our funds and how these are allocated in our local area.
As a minimum, trustees would normally be expected to attend a monthly committee meeting lasting some 2 to 3 hours. However, the commitment may vary depending on whether the trustee takes on additional duties.
About the RSPCA
Founded in 1824, we have been saving animals for 200 years and are proud to be the oldest welfare charity around. We are the RSPCA and it's our vision to live in a world where all animals are respected and treated with compassion. Our volunteers are incredible, they play an essential role in helping us carry out our important animal welfare work every day.
The RSPCA London South East Branch
The London South East Branch is one of the branches of RSPCA, but we are also a separately registered charity looking after animals in our local area. Much of the animal welfare work of RSPCA is carried out through local branches, which is run by volunteers who have the support of the National Society of RSPCA.
The London South East Branch has two retail shops (Sydenham Road and Norwood Road) and supports the work of the Inspectorate through rehoming of animals within the branch area.
Primary responsibilities of the Branch Chair
-
Take the chair at branch committee meetings and direct the activities.
-
Act jointly with all co-trustees and work closely with the branch secretary and treasurer.
-
To act as co-signatory, if required, on branch cheques and ensure that proper financial procedures are always followed, in line with charity legislation.
-
Ensure that all committee members are familiar with branch rules, national Society policy and their responsibilities as a charity trustee.
-
Be instrumental in the production, monitoring and review of a branch strategy.
-
Actively coordinate the activities of the branch, including the delegation of tasks.
-
Ensure that a branch representative is appointed to the regional board and that the representative gives the committee a full report on the business conducted after each meeting.
-
To ensure that all the essential roles within the committee are filled by suitable, appropriate trustees or volunteers.
Core Branch Trustee responsibilities
-
Appreciate and support the aims and policies of the RSPCA.
-
Work in conjunction with fellow trustees and branch officers and jointly act in making decisions for the best interest of the branch and the RSPCA.
-
Work with national RSPCA staff to ensure that the branch meets all minimum animal welfare standards (MAWS).
-
In conjunction with your fellow trustees and Branch Partnership Manager write, adopt, monitor, and review a development plan setting out the short and long term aims of your branch.
-
Actively participate in branch committee meetings and to attend the branch annual general meeting and regional conference.
-
Be aware of the outcome of regional board meetings and support local initiatives.
-
Actively promote and advertise the society in an ongoing programme to recruit new branch trustees and volunteers and welcome new members.
-
In conjunction with your fellow trustees, ensure the proper management and control of all activities and decisions relating to any premises held or staff employed by the branch if applicable.
What we are looking for in a volunteer:
Ideally you would have specific skills such as finance, legal, fundraising, project management, business experience, awareness of employment and/or charity legislation. These all can be useful to help ensure we have a sound and robust business model and long-term strategic development plan, however, they are not essential.
We are also looking for people who are creative, innovative, who have experience of or are part of the groups and communities we want to attract, who can bring new ideas, different experiences and fresh perspectives to the Board and help put those ideas into action.
You will need to be able to work with people and have good interpersonal skills. You do not need to be an expert, although commitment, common sense, and the ability to be objective are vital.
No previous trustee experience? That’s OK! We welcome applications from anyone interested in developing their skills by becoming a trustee and will provide relevant training.
What we can offer you as a volunteer Branch Chair
-
We will provide you with a comprehensive trustee training course which will provide you with everything you need to carry out the role.
-
Ongoing support is also provided by local and national RSPCA staff in addition to any additional training provided by the relevant branch.
-
The platform to utilise your skills and experience to oversee the charity and make decisions that have a direct impact on local animal welfare.
-
The opportunity to gain new skills and develop existing ones, whilst making a real difference to the lives of animals.
-
A way to expand your professional and personal network through working with like-minded people.
Practical considerations
-
Please also note that to become a Trustee, you will need to be aged 18 or over and a member of our branch for three months before you are eligible to be elected.
-
Trustees are elected for a 12-month term each year.
-
You will need to have your own vehicle or access to a vehicle, and your own computer or one that can be used securely.
-
Reasonable expenses will be reimbursed.
-
Trustees must sign a Trustee Declaration of Willingness to Act to clarify that they are not disqualified from being a trustee and read the Charity Commission’s guidance for individuals on who cannot be a trustee or senior manager of a charity.
-
References will also be required.

Trustee for Bracknell Shopmobility
Do you want to support the running of a charity that helps disabled people in Bracknell?
Bracknell Shopmobility are the independent charity helping local people’s disability needs, from hire of mobility scooters to advice on disability aids and assistance, and also much more!
From our shop in central Bracknell we run regular social activities in our community café, hold fundraising activities, plus host regular visits from health and other advisors about a range of issues, not just focused on disabled people.
Our annual income has risen to £70k, and we have a new Treasurer joining us; we now need trustees to build our strategy for the future, so we can continue our 20+ year journey in helping Bracknell communities.
The role and what we are looking for in a new trustee
Trustees are the people who make the top-level decisions for our charity. Our Board includes people with experience in understanding the needs of disabled people’s mobility, and we’d expect new trustees to have empathy with our cause and our beneficiaries.
You don’t need prior experience of charity trusteeship, as support from others is always available. Full induction to our organisation will be provided, plus specialist support as a new trustee including access to external training.
If you can think strategically and plan longer-term, you have the primary skills needed by our trustees; you’ll also need to be able to work collectively with other Board members. Our small team of employees and volunteers are those dealing with the day-to-day running of the organisation.
We are a charity not a business, but we apply business principles to governing our organisation. We are looking for people from a wide variety of backgrounds to join our charity.
The focus of a trustee role is strategic, and trustees will not be expected to get involved in the organisation’s day-to-day operations; however, contact and liaison with other trustees and employees is expected.
We ask for about six hours per month, which includes all meetings, discussions, etc. You will need access to digital communications, as much of our charity’s business is run that way.
How to apply
This appointment is being managed for us by inVOLve Community Services, a charity-support organisation, who offer a no-obligation discussion by video. A detailed Role Description and Person Specification can be made available to you upon request.
Trustee appointments are subject to satisfactory references.
Your CV and supporting statement will be read by our trustees; an informal discussion followed by interview can be offered as soon as mutually convenient.
I need to know more
Contact Mike Allen via Quick Apply, below, for more information, the Role Description & Skills Specification and arrange to have a no-obligation initial informal discussion (Teams or Zoom) at your convenience.

- Someone who brings rigour to audit, risk, and financial oversight, and can lead strategic conversations at Board level
- A credible, thoughtful partner to our Finance Director - able to challenge, support, and collaborate on everything from acquisitions to reserves
- A confident chair and facilitator, who creates a positive, inclusive space for discussion and decision-making
- Someone with gravitas who’s interested in wider business and wants to advise (not run) ours. You understand the numbers, and bring commerciality and pragmatism
- A calm, grounded presence with high emotional intelligence, curiosity, and a genuine passion for our mission
Why join us?
- Use your skills to make a real difference to children and families across London
- Join a collaborative, professional, and down-to-earth Board and exec team
- Be part of a warm, values-led organisation that welcomes your ideas and energy

Further details about the role can be found in our online info pack. We’re reviewing applications and progressing people in August – so don’t wait too long to express your interest. We’re hoping you will join us for key business meetings in September as part of the transition from our current FinCom Chair.
