Location: Kent- however this role can be done virtually.
Time Commitment: Around 3–5 hours per month
Reporting to: The Board of Trustees
About the Role:
We’re a charity supporting young people and families through grief, loss, and emotional wellbeing. As our Secretary, you’ll be the organised heartbeat of the board, keeping everything running smoothly, making sure meetings are well-structured, and helping us stay on top of our legal and admin responsibilities.
You don’t need to have charity admin experience — just good organisational skills, a bit of tech confidence, and a passion for helping young people heal and thrive.
Key Responsibilities:
Meetings & Records
-
Arrange trustee meetings (usually every 1–2 months) and make sure everyone has the agenda and papers in advance.
-
Take clear minutes and track action points so nothing slips through the cracks.
-
Keep an organised record of all meetings, decisions, and official documents.
Governance & Compliance
-
Help ensure the charity meets its legal requirements with the Charity Commission.
-
Maintain up-to-date trustee contact details and declarations of interest.
-
Support the Chair and Treasurer with key governance documents like policies, annual returns, and reports.
Communication & Coordination

Be the main point of contact for trustee communication — keeping everyone in the loop.
-
Help coordinate between trustees, volunteers, and partners.
-
Make sure important dates, tasks, and documents are shared in good time.
What We’re Looking For:
-
Super organised and reliable — someone who loves keeping things in order.
-
Good written communication skills and attention to detail.
-
Comfortable using email, Google Drive, Word, or similar tools.
-
Friendly and collaborative, with a genuine passion for supporting young people and families through loss.
Commitment & Expenses:
-
This is a voluntary trustee role. Reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (like travel or supplies) can be reimbursed.
-
Trustees usually meet once every 1–2 months, with a few extra hours between meetings for admin or follow-ups.
-
You will have the opportunity to be involved with community work, however this is not an expectation.
What You’ll Get Out of It:
-
A hands-on role helping a growing charity stay organised and effective.
-
Experience in charity governance, leadership, and administration.
-
A friendly, purpose-driven team who truly cares about what we do.

A good opportunity to get hands-on experience in the world of admin.
-
The satisfaction of helping young people and families find hope and healing after loss.
At Beyond Tomorrow, we support young people through grief and loss with compassion, guidance, and hope.

We're STAMMA. We exist to create a world that makes space for stammering. Where a stammer is embraced as just a difference. Where no-one judges us on our stammer or the way we choose to deal with it.
We will stand up for and empower those who stammer and challenge discrimination wherever we find it. We will provide support and information and fight for speech and language therapy services for those who want it. No matter how you talk, we're here for you. Join us and help the public understand that stammering is not a sign of being shy, drunk, dishonest, nervous or weak. It's simply how some of us talk.
We provide a free national helpline, email and webchat service, online resources and information, support for local groups and professional networks, for families with children who stammer, and an Advocacy Service for those who have been discriminated against because of their stammer.
STAMMA’s Helpline Services include our phoneline, webchat and email support services and are a hugely important part of STAMMA’s work. This is frontline stuff, responding to people reaching out for information and support. It’s a great opportunity to spend time chatting with people who stammer, as well as their parents, grandparents, teachers and employers, taking the time to make space to listen and to value what they have to say. Where appropriate we then signpost people to useful information, support and services.
We use a virtual call centre which means you can take calls and webchats from home, using a desktop or laptop computer.
Our helpline is manned by our amazing volunteers from 10am - 2pm (our morning shift), and from 4pm - 8pm (our evening shift), Monday to Thursday. We are looking for dedicated volunteers who can commit to one of the following shifts on a weekly basis:
Mondays 4pm - 6pm
Thursday 4pm - 8pm
We think that you (and our callers!) will get the most out of this opportunity if you're able to volunteer with us for at least 12 months or more. By gradually learning and developing your confidence in the role, you can have the biggest impact.
About the role
Working within our Helpline Services, we’re hoping you’ll feel comfortable to:
- Take helpline calls (listening and speaking on the phone)
- Respond to webchats (reading on-screen messages and typing responses)
- Sending occasional emails
If you wish to, you can also be linked to an area of project work. That way, if the helpline services are quiet during your shift, you can get involved in other areas of STAMMA’s work. Project work is likely to involve reading and reviewing documents and resources, contributing to discussions and campaign ideas, and helping develop new resources.
We provide structured, online training that you can complete at your own pace, but is likely to take about 8-10 hours in total to complete. Following the training, you’ll have practice helpline calls and webchats. If you feel ready after that, you’ll start working in the helpline services. Ongoing support includes:
- Monthly helpline services meetings where you can meet other helpline volunteers. These monthly meetings include a short training session and discussion where we share and learn from our experiences of different calls and webchats.
- We have a WhatsApp group where you can keep in touch with other volunteers.
- Volunteer supervisors are available for one-to-one support and discussions.
- Access the training modules as many times as you want.
Who are we looking for?
You’re likely to enjoy volunteering in the Helpline Services if you:
- have a genuine curiosity about people and their experiences
- are able to understand written and spoken English
- are comfortable enough to speak on the telephone
- are comfortable with basic email functions
- have good administration skills
- enjoy listening and talking to people
It’s not essential to stammer yourself if you’re interested in working in our helpline, but it can be an advantage if you do, or if you are the parent of a child who stammers. Many of our callers find it really helpful to know that they’re speaking to someone who really ‘gets it’ and who has that personal insight into some of the issues and questions they have.
This is a volunteer role is remote, so you will need access to:
- a quiet place where you can work in privacy and not be overheard during calls
- a mobile phone or landline
- a computer or laptop
What can you gain from this opportunity?
This is a wonderful opportunity to join a small and friendly team! We'll make sure you're supported in every step of your journey, and you'll get to meet some inspiring people. You'll gain skills that you'll be able to use in all areas of your life and build experiences for your CV. Most importantly, you will make a real difference in the lives of people who stammer.
How to apply
To apply, please fill in our volunteer form that is linked to this opportunity.
We are dedicated to making sure our roles are accessible and open to all. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out to us.
We exist to create a world that makes space for stammering. Where a stammer is embraced as just a difference.

Facilitate training with Zoom: taking turns in a pair to manage Zoom administrative functions such as switching on the captions, keeping an eye on questions in the chat box, allowing visitors into the session, muting/unmuting.
-
Act as an ambassador for STAMMA, helping us to build good relationships with organisations, to help enact real change.
Who are we looking for?
You’re likely to enjoy volunteering in the Training & Outreach Service if you:
-
Enjoy public speaking and chatting with groups or would like to develop these skills.
-
Have or are interested in developing presentation skills.
-
Are comfortable both speaking and using the chat function in Zoom (or are happy to learn more about the platforms functionality).
-
Are comfortable sharing your personal experiences in relation to phone calls.
-
Have good time management skills – sessions will only last an hour, and every second counts!
-
Are passionate about making the world a better place for people who stammer.
-
Can commit to at least five sessions in advance.
For this role, it’s essential that you have a stammer. We think our message is best delivered directly from people who stammer, and your lived experiences will help make them sit up and listen.
You will need a quiet place where you can work in relative privacy and not be overheard during Zoom calls or telephone calls. You also need to have access to your own computer or laptop.
As a volunteer you can, of course, step back from the role at any time. However, both you and the service are likely to get most out of the opportunity if you’re able to volunteer with us for 12 months or more. By gradually learning and developing your confidence in the role, you can have the biggest impact.
What can you gain from this opportunity?
This is a wonderful opportunity to join a small and friendly team! We'll make sure you're supported in every step of your journey, and you'll get to meet some inspiring people. You'll gain skills that you'll be able to use in all areas of your life and build experiences for your CV. Most importantly, you will make a real difference in the lives of people who stammer.
