FOUNDING GRAPHIC DESIGNER (VOLUNTEER)
Help Shape the Visual Identity of a Movement That Will Change Lives
Loneliness is one of the greatest challenges facing our communities today. Every day, people across London feel invisible, disconnected and alone — not because they have nobody around them, but because they don’t feel seen, valued or like they truly belong.
SUNSHINE was created to change that.
Born from a deeply personal promise that nobody should have to face loneliness alone, SUNSHINE is building a movement where connection becomes a lifeline and belonging becomes a right.
Now, we’re searching for a Founding Graphic Designer — a creative, imaginative, heart‑led volunteer who wants to help bring SUNSHINE’s identity to life.
This isn’t just a design role. This is the chance to visually shape a movement that will touch thousands of lives.
Your Mission
As our Founding Graphic Designer, you will help create the visual world of SUNSHINE — a world filled with warmth, hope and belonging.
You’ll design:
-
Social media graphics that inspire connection.
-
Booklets and brochures that tell our story.
-
Banners and posters that welcome people into community.
-
Merchandise that spreads joy and visibility.
-
Brand identity elements that define who we are.
-
And many more creative pieces as we grow.
Your work will become the face of SUNSHINE — the colours, shapes and visuals that make people feel seen, included and uplifted.
Who You Are
- You’re creative, compassionate and excited to use your skills for something meaningful.
- You don’t need decades of experience — just a passion for design and a belief that creativity can change the world.
You’re someone who:
- Loves visual storytelling
- Enjoys creating warm, welcoming designs
- Wants to use their talent for social good
- Believes in kindness, dignity and belonging
- Is excited to help build a brand from the ground up
Why This Matters
- Because every graphic you create…
- Every colour palette you shape…
- Every piece of visual storytelling you craft…
Will help someone feel less alone.
- Your designs will be the first thing people see.
- They will be the spark that draws someone in.
- They will be the invitation that says: “You belong here.”
This is your chance to leave a creative legacy that will impact lives for years to come.
Why Join SUNSHINE?
As a Founding Graphic Designer, you’ll have the opportunity to:
-
Help build a new charity from the very beginning.
-
Shape the visual identity of a movement.
-
Create meaningful work that brings people together.
-
Collaborate with a passionate, kind leadership team.
-
Use your creativity to make a genuine difference.
Most importantly… You’ll help ensure fewer people have to experience the pain of loneliness.
A Personal Message from the Founder
“I didn’t start SUNSHINE because I wanted to run a charity. I started it because I watched someone I love experience a loneliness that no one should ever have to endure.
SUNSHINE is my promise that we’ll keep creating places where people feel seen, valued and connected — but I can’t build that future alone.
If our vision speaks to you, I’d be honoured to welcome you as one of SUNSHINE’s Founding Creatives.
Together, we can build a future where nobody has to face loneliness alone.”
— Scott, Founder of SUNSHINE
