Our challenge
Our Support and Information team offer a wide range of inclusive and accessible services to support those diagnosed with a brain tumour and their families.
One of our most critical services is our Support and Information Line, which is open between 9am-5pm, Monday—Friday. This service offers a place for people affected by a brain tumour diagnosis, to ask questions or raise concerns about a diagnosis, and how to support a loved one. We continue to see an increase in people accessing these services, and strive to work in smarter ways to manage this increase.
How can you help?
We’re looking for volunteers to help us make sure the Support Line runs more efficiently, by answering calls and asking a small number of specific questions to ensure the caller is transferred/triaged to the most appropriate support for them. This role also has the opportunity to develop into providing support to the community about specific areas.
- Answer incoming calls to the Support Line with empathy and understanding
- Ask specific questions to understand the caller’s support needs and transfer to the appropriate teams
- Accurately record information about the call onto our secure database
- Assist the support team in specific project areas where appropriate
- Respond to support emails from our community
- Support our digital support team with our peer support groups on Facebook • The role could develop into providing support over the phone regarding specific areas
What impact will you have?
This is an opportunity to be the first point of contact for our community, ensuring those that we support get the best service possible.
We’re looking for...
- Experience or confidence in answering calls and speaking on the phone
- Strong IT and computer skills, ideally experience of using databases
- Ability to demonstrate a high degree of empathy and resilience
- Active listening and strong communication skills
- Ability to separate own experiences from others, offering support and signposting in a non judgemental way
- Confidence to work autonomously and as part of a team
- Organisation and reliability
- Demonstrable understanding of confidential working
We particularly encourage applications from those who are significantly underrepresented in our sector, including individuals from Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME) communities.
What can I gain from volunteering with you?
- You’ll have the opportunity to utilise your existing skills, while developing and learning new ones to take forward into the future
- You’ll join a friendly, passionate team and develop an understanding of how this team at The Charity operates
- The satisfaction of knowing that you’re assisting those affected by a brain tumour diagnosis to gain the appropriate support
- The opportunity to expand the role in the future, by taking on additional training
Time commitment
To ensure we have volunteer cover for the full Support Line opening hours, we are looking for volunteers to commit between 1-4 hours a week. However, are open to talking about the regularity of these shifts.
The available times that we currently have are:

- Wednesday’s, 9am-10am
- Every other Thursday, 9am-1pm
- Friday’s, 1pm - 5pm
Due to the continuous training involved, we would ask that volunteers commit to a minimum of six months spent volunteering with us. This is a remote role where you can volunteer from home. You will have regular contact with our Support and Information team who, while facing tough challenges along the way, look out for each other and nurture an inspiring, positive team environment.
Practical considerations
You’ll receive a full online induction to The Brain Tumour Charity and specific training for the role, as well as training on the use of our database and phone system.
You’ll receive weekly supervision after each shift and ongoing support through online webinars, emails and telephone calls, from a team member within the Support team. You’ll have the opportunity to keep in touch and gain support from other volunteers in the same role.
Incoming support call numbers may vary, so some shifts may be quieter than others. We’ve created a number of different activities that you can get involved in between calls, if you would like to. This role has the opportunity for development to other areas of the support team— guidance and training will be provided for this.
We carry out reference checks for all individuals who will be volunteering with us on a regular basis. Volunteers will also be required to complete some internal data protection and disclosure documentation before commencing the role. Volunteers must be over 18.

Acting as a representative of Blood Cancer UK in the local community, you will help raise money for our life-saving research by creating fundraising opportunities in your local area and being a local champion by raising awareness of our work and research.
The role is extremely varied; one month you could be hosting a quiz night, the next speaking to local businesses who may be potential partners or holding your own event. The options are limitless.

Please note the minimum age for this role is 18 years old.
Every year over 40,000 people are diagnosed with blood cancer in the UK. The single best way to beat blood cancer is through research to improve treatment. And the more of it we fund, the more breakthroughs we will see, and the more lives we will save.
Blood Cancer UK Community Fundraising Volunteers play a vital role in strengthening our reach and engagement in local communities - raising awareness of our research,
health information, and support.
You will develop new skills, expand your knowledge, and make a significant contribution to improving the lives of people with blood cancer by helping raise vital funds through fundraising activities. The more events we host, the more people affected by blood cancer we can reach and the more funds we can raise.

- develops cures for those who have blood cancer, now or in the future,
- continually improves the treatment and care for those living with blood cancer today and,

Every penny you raise will make a BIG impact on our vital work:
- £100 could fund a researcher to analyse 120 blood cell samples – any one of them could hold the key to a new discovery.
- £210 is enough for us to send expert patient information to everyone diagnosed with blood cancer today.
- £500 could fund a research nurse for three days – ensuring patients have a hand to hold while testing new treatments.
