SAAUK are looking for a passionate and knowledgeable BABCP registered CBT therapist (with an interest in social anxiety) to join the small team already reviewing content. We are looking for someone who can commit a small amount of time per week - an average 2 hours a week but this is very flexible.
Social anxiety involves an excessive fear of social situations. Sufferers will often fear being embarrassed, or worry about being negatively evaluated by others. Anticipatory anxiety and situational avoidance are common, and individuals may endure social situations with a high level of discomfort. The scope of the anxiety may be focused on specific types of social situations or generalised to almost any social encounter.
This role will be key in helping SAAUK (a young and developing charity) expand its information and resources for those who suffer from social anxiety. Social Anxiety is under recognized both publicly and clinically and you will play a key part in helping develop and review the content to help spread awareness whilst providing accurate and up-to-date information.
Please provide a "cover letter / message" so we can understand your previous experience and your interest in working with Social Anxiety Alliance UK.

We're looking for Trustees.
Open Up Music is an organisation with a simple but powerful mission: to open up music to young disabled musicians. We work alongside those young people to tackle musical inequality - inspiring new instruments and creating new musical forms for the 21st century. We are looking to recruit trustees to help support the organisation through its next, exciting stage of development.
This academic year, we are providing accessible musical progression opportunities to over 600 of the most marginalised young musicians in the UK. We do this through our award-winning programmes, including Open Orchestras (the largest network of inclusive ensembles in the UK) and the National Open Youth Orchestra (the world’s first disabled-led national youth ensemble). Over the next 5 years, in partnership with some of the UK’s leading arts and cultural organisations, we have plans to increase the scale and geographic range of our programmes.
As a trustee, you will use your skills, experience, and insight to ensure the charity is run in a way that is responsible, effective and meets its legal and statutory requirements. You will help ensure that we deliver on what we say we will do, and use the money we raise as effectively as possible. You will also work with our wonderful staff team to set the future direction of the charity.
Diversity, equity, and inclusion are at the heart of who we are. We take our responsibility to acknowledge, challenge and dismantle barriers within music and our organisation extremely seriously. We know that a key part of this is having a Board that reflects the diversity of the young people we work alongside. To that end, we are only accepting applications from disabled and neurodivergent people at this time.
We recognise that systems of privilege, structural disadvantage and barriers to participation often intersect with one another, and so we welcome applications from disabled and neurodivergent people who are also members of other structurally disadvantaged groups. This may include people from the Global Majority, LGBTQIA+ people, and/or people from economically disadvantaged backgrounds
We are keen to hear from people with experience in the following areas:
- Marketing, including campaigning, digital marketing, and education.
- Business development, including social enterprise, software, and environmental sustainability.
- Operations and management, including HR, legal, and safeguarding.
- Finance, including financial management, budgeting, compliance and risk management
- Fundraising, including corporate partnerships and individual donors.

We need volunteers to help in-store, to ask shoppers to purchase long-life food items to donate, and collect the donations.
We are urgently in need of long-life items such as tinned goods, cereal, pasta and rice - as they last a long time and offer good variety.
The food collected is given to the local food charity who supports people in the local community.
Shift times
Volunteer shifts are one-off on Thursday 28 November, Friday 29 November and Saturday 30 November 2024.
Shift times are 9am-midday, midday-3pm, 3pm-6pm and 6pm-9pm.
