The Leprosy Mission is the world’s largest leprosy-focused organisation, a pioneer in our field, with 140 years’ experience serving people affected by this disease. As a leading international Christian development charity, we work in 10 countries across Africa and Asia to defeat leprosy and transform lives.

We’re looking for inspirational communicators who will enjoy championing our work at churches and community groups, both in person and on Zoom. 

The role is flexible in terms of hours, as we want it to be the best fit for you as you generously offer your skills and time.

You’ll be given ongoing support, training and resources from your Community Partnership Manager, who is only ever a phone call away.

You may also have the exciting opportunity to visit our projects overseas.

Our volunteers are kindly asked to commit to a minimum of 6 speaking engagements per annum. These engagements can either be sourced by the volunteer within their community or provided by our Community Partnership Managers.

Engagements can take place at any time/date that is convenient for volunteers, however a typical speaking engagement takes place on a Sunday morning or weekday evenings.

We are committed to diversity and welcomes applications from appropriately qualified people from all sections of the community.

Volunteers needed to work alongside the Community Development Worker on a NEW project within the Army Welfare Service in Telford.  This project is the AWS Donnington Youth Forum and is aimed at young people aged 10-16 years.

The team is looking for enthusiastic and motivated volunteers to work with young people aged 10 years+ who have parents/carers who work in the military (or have previously served or who are reservists)

The main focus of this work is to look at what youth provision or activities they would like to see in the area and help to shape services. 

This will be the beginning of the work- then going into providing what provision is planned.

Likely to be a Wednesday 5.30-7.00pm.  Project due to start in September 2024

As a call companion, you will make regular telephone calls to an older person experiencing loneliness and isolation.

These calls provide a lifeline of friendship for our older people, and the regular, warm, friendly chats and companionship provide a vital link with the outside world from which they have become isolated.

Over time, you and the older person you have been matched with will get to know each other well and together you will spend many hours full of fun, laughter and stories.
