Social Media Volunteer — Remote Content Creator

Voluntary role (this is not paid employment)

Remote, UK based, from home

Around 5 to 8 hours a week, flexible and arranged around you.

Reasonable out of pocket expenses reimbursed

Volunteer from home and help more people through pregnancy sickness and hyperemesis gravidarum feel less alone

Pregnancy Sickness Support is a registered UK charity working to improve care, treatment and support for those affected by nausea and vomiting in pregnancy (NVP) and the severe form of the condition, Hyperemesis Gravidarum (HG). For many people this is one of the hardest and loneliest parts of pregnancy. Our social media is often the first place someone finds out they are not alone.

• Creating warm, accurate posts and simple graphics in Canva that share support, information and lived experience across our channels
• Helping plan and schedule content across Instagram, Facebook, Linked In and X
• Helping us explore and launch a presence on Tik Tok, if that is something you would enjoy
• Keeping an eye on comments and messages, replying kindly to straightforward ones and passing anything sensitive or distressing to the staff team
• Spotting awareness days, campaigns and moments that matter to our community and suggesting content for them
• Sharing simple updates on what is landing well, so we can learn what our audience values

You do not need to be a marketing professional. We are looking for someone who cares about our cause, writes clearly and warmly, and can handle a sensitive subject with care. You would be comfortable on social media, happy to learn our tools and brand, and able to organise your own time so the volunteering fits around your life.

• A genuine interest in our cause and a caring, sensitive approach to content about pregnancy, illness, loss and mental health
• Confidence using one or more social media platforms (Instagram, Facebook, Linked In or X), whether in a personal or work setting
• The ability to write clearly and warmly for a general audience, with good attention to accuracy
• Reliability and the ability to organise your own time around the volunteering
• A willingness to follow our brand, safeguarding and confidentiality guidance, and to check content with the team before posting where needed
• Making simple graphics or short videos, for example in Canva (templates and guidance are provided, so this is not essential)
• An interest in or experience of creating Tik Tok content
• Lived experience of hyperemesis gravidarum or pregnancy sickness, or a close understanding of it. This is valued, not required
• Any experience of content planning, scheduling tools or basic social media insights
• Any experience of volunteering with, or working for, a charity

• The chance to make a real difference to people going through one of the hardest parts of pregnancy
• Hands on experience across live social channels, including the opportunity to help launch a new Tik Tok presence
• An induction, a named contact for support, and Canva templates and brand guidance
• Reasonable out of pocket expenses reimbursed
• A reference after a reasonable period of volunteering with us

Pregnancy Sickness Support welcomes volunteers from all backgrounds and communities. We particularly welcome people with lived experience of pregnancy sickness. We are committed to treating all volunteers fairly and with respect, and to making our roles as accessible as we can.
