Welcome to Reach Volunteering. We are a community and registered charity that connects people, skills and good causes.

To apply for this role, and any other on our platform, you need to be based in the UK, have at least three years of experience using the skills you wish to volunteer in a professional capacity or have lived experience (for trustee roles). Read more about our criteria.

Sunrise Diversity is a charity dedicated to creating community cohesion and ending discrimination. Our services are designed to promote equality, diversity and social inclusion throughout Northern Devon.

What will you be doing?

We are especially keen to find someone with experience in IT and someone else with a background in HR. Ideally, we are looking for people who understand organisational change and development, maybe with some understanding of how charities operate but if your main attribute is simply a passion for helping our communities become increasingly accepting and inclusive, we’d still love to hear from you. 

Diverse lived experiences are also exceptionally important for us to develop a strong board and to ensure we are representative of the communities we serve. If you have lived experience of our work (migrants, refugees, black/ethnic minoritised groups, global majority, displacement, LGBTQ+ community) with the above experience, please get in touch.

If you don’t think you are ready to be a Trustee, we have some satisfying volunteering opportunities and will be very happy to accept pro-bono support. We are also interested in helping younger and inexperienced people take steps into community leadership so please do make contact whatever your level of interest.

What are we looking for?

We are looking for people with:

Diverse lived experience

IT experience  

HR background

A passion for helping our communities become increasingly accepting and inclusive

What difference will you make?

As part of our board, you will support us through a period of growth and development as we continue to shape our direction for our strategy over the next three years. 

Before you apply

Apply through Reach with a short explanation of why you would like to join us and what skills you bring. After shortlisting we’ll come back to you and invite you to meet the Board for a discussion.
