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.

Home-Start Northampton is looking for a volunteer social media manager to provide hands-on socials support and help us raise awareness of our work in the local community, and take our social media to the next level

What will you be doing?

We need hands-on support from a social-media savvy volunteer – someone who can support with creating, scheduling, and managing content as well as advising on best practice to make sure our socials are working as hard for us, as we do for our local community.

You don’t necessarily need to be working in a similar role, but you do need to know your way around an algorithm and have a creative flair that will help out posts cut through the noise.

What is a Home-Start Advisor?

  • Our advisors support the Board by providing expertise and guidance in their area of expertise, on an ad-hoc, remote basis.
  • You can provide advisory completely remotely and give as much or as little time as you can spare.
  • You could be invited to our Board or sub-committee meetings but our advisors are not official Board roles and you do not have to join as a charity trustee.

We are:

  • A small but mighty local charity working to support families with children under 5
  • Committed to offering practical and emotional support, in-home and through support groups
  • Eager to make the most of social media to drive volunteer recruitment and reach the people who need us most

You are:

  • A social media whizz, either professionally or as a passion
  • Able to provide hands-on support with content creation/management
  • Passionate about giving every child the childhood they deserve
  • Non-judgemental, compassionate, and caring

What are we looking for?

  • An experienced social media whizz
  • Able to provide hands-on support with content creation/management
  • Passionate about giving every child the childhood they deserve
  • Non-judgemental, compassionate, and caring
  • Ability to volunteer 1-2 hours a week, working remotely

What difference will you make?

You will raise awareness in the community for families and referrers, spreading the word of the good work we offer and the difference it makes.  You will make that happen.  You will b part of the difference we make to parents, and particularly children, now and forever!
