VOLUNTEER!

Ready to help steer a brand‑new movement? Become a Trustee at MINDSET

MINDSET isn’t a traditional charity. We’re a start‑up movement reshaping men’s mental wellbeing across England and Wales — ditching the waiting rooms, the stigma, and the “one‑size‑fits‑all” approach. We’re building something new, something bold, and something that actually works for the communities we serve.

Now we’re looking for a volunteer Trustee to join our current board who want to help shape that future.

We are especially and particularly keen to welcome people from a range of diverse backgrounds, including people from BAME communities, women as well as men and women from the LGBT+ community, to ensure our Board truly reflects the communities of England and Wales.

The Role: Trustee

As a Trustee, you’ll sit at the heart of MINDSET’s mission. You’ll help guide our strategy, strengthen our governance, and ensure we deliver real, measurable impact for men across the country.

This is a volunteer leadership role for someone who cares deeply about mental wellbeing, social change, and building something meaningful from the ground up.

Your Mission

1. Shape the Vision

Help define the strategic direction of a start‑up charity determined to transform men’s mental fitness and personal growth.

2. Strengthen the Foundations

Ensure we operate with integrity, transparency, and strong governance as we grow from an idea into a national movement.

3. Champion Inclusion

Bring your lived experience, your community insight, and your voice to a Board committed to representing the full diversity of England and Wales.

4. Drive Impact

Support the development of innovative services, campaigns, and partnerships that challenge stigma and create real change.

5. Hold the Mission True

Make sure everything we do is high‑quality, ethical, sustainable, and aligned with our values.

The Vibe

We’re informal, direct, and positive. We value creativity, honesty, and people who get things done. As a Trustee, you’ll have space to lead, freedom to shape the organisation, and the chance to build a legacy with a movement that’s only just beginning.

Sound like you

If you’re passionate about mental wellbeing, committed to inclusion, and excited by the idea of helping build a new national charity from scratch, we’d love to hear from you.

Bring your voice. Bring your experience. Bring your leadership.

Join the MINDSET mission.
