Social Media & Digital Creator Volunteer

Help us share our work, reach more people and make a difference in our local community.

About Us

Common Thread Vision (CTV) is a small, community-based registered charity in Glasgow dedicated to supporting ethnic minority older adults to access health and wellbeing services. While our primary focus is supporting ethnic minority elders, we warmly welcome women of all backgrounds and ages to take part in our activities.

We are based at Pollokshields Community Centre and provide a welcoming space where women can connect, build friendships and take part in activities including our weekly Lunch Club, Arts & Crafts, Chair Yoga, Yoga, massage therapy, outings and summer trips.

Our aim is to reduce loneliness and social isolation, support independence and promote the physical and mental wellbeing of our members.

Please Note

This role is within a women-led organisation and involves regular communication with the Project Leader. To support a comfortable and effective working relationship, this volunteering opportunity is open to women.

The Role

We are looking for a creative and enthusiastic volunteer to help us promote Common Thread Vision through social media and digital content.

You will help manage our Facebook and Instagram pages, create engaging posts and design flyers and promotional materials for our Lunch Club, Arts & Crafts, Yoga, outings and other activities.

This is a flexible role that can mainly be carried out from home, at your own pace, with tasks agreed with the Project Leader.

What You’ll Do

• Create and schedule posts for Facebook and Instagram.
• Design flyers and promotional materials using Canva or similar tools.
• Share updates, photos and stories from our activities and events.
• Help promote our activities and increase awareness of CTV.
• Suggest creative ideas for social media content and online promotion.
• Interact with followers and respond to messages or comments where appropriate.

We’re Looking for Someone Who

• Enjoys using social media, particularly Facebook and Instagram.
• Is creative and enjoys designing content.
• Has good communication skills and an interest in digital media.
• Is reliable, organised and able to work independently.
• Has some experience with Canva or similar design tools.
• Knowledge of AI tools would be helpful but is not essential.
• Is interested in supporting women, older people and community initiatives.

Professional experience is not essential – enthusiasm, creativity and a willingness to learn are more important.

What You’ll Get

• Practical experience in social media, digital content and communications.
• The opportunity to develop your creative and digital skills.
• Experience working with a small community charity.
• The chance to build your portfolio with real community-based content.
• Flexible volunteering that can fit around your other commitments.
• Friendly support from our team.
• The opportunity to make a positive difference in your local community.
