What We Need

We’re seeking a creative individual who can offer some of their time to help us develop:

• Communicate our mission with clarity

• Build trust with young people, partners, and funders

• Stand out in a crowded charity landscape

• Create consistency across all our programmes and outreach

What You’ll Bring

• Experience in graphic design (professional or self‑taught — we welcome both)

• Ability to create clean, modern, youth‑focused visuals

• An understanding of branding principles

• A collaborative spirit and willingness to share ideas

What You’ll Get

• A chance to shape the visual identity of a growing youth charity

• Portfolio‑worthy work with real‑world impact

• Flexible volunteering that fits around your schedule

• The satisfaction of knowing your creativity is helping young people thrive
