Detailed description
Volunteers & Local Support Needed – The Angels Foundation UK (Cambridgeshire)
Do you have skills, time, resources or contacts that could help change lives in Cambridgeshire?
The Angels Foundation UK supports domestic abuse survivors and their families through trauma-informed services that help people rebuild their lives safely and with dignity. We’re growing quickly and we need support from our community to keep delivering and expanding our impact.
Volunteers with professional skills needed
We’re looking for people who can support the day-to-day running of a charity, including roles such as:
✅ Admin & organisation support
✅ Finance / spreadsheets / reporting
✅ Marketing, PR & communications
✅ Social media & content creation
✅ Fundraising, bid writing & partnerships
✅ Database / CRM / data support
✅ Project support & coordination
This is perfect if you are:
✨ Returning to work after a break
✨ Upskilling and looking for meaningful experience
✨ Retired and want to share your expertise without full-time responsibility
✨ Someone who wants their spare time to matter and give back locally
Practical help needed too (local businesses welcome!)

About The Angels Foundation UK
The Angels Foundation UK supports families who have fled domestic abuse throughout Cambridgeshire.
Practical Support for Domestic Abuse Survivors and Their Families:
We support individuals and families who have fled domestic abuse, providing essential furniture, flooring, and appliances to help them rebuild their lives in a safe and stable home. Our services ensure that survivors do not return to abusive situations due to a lack of basic necessities.
Mental Health Affected by Domestic Abuse:
We recognise the lasting impact of domestic abuse on individuals and children. We provide support to help them recover through our counselling and therapy services, assist individuals and young survivors in overcoming trauma and breaking the cycle of abuse for future generations.
Individuals Facing Social Isolation After Abuse:
Many survivors struggle with social isolation and mental health challenges after leaving an abusive situation. We offer trauma-informed support, signposting to further essential services, and community activities such as our Angels Walk and Talks to help survivors regain confidence and a sense of belonging.
