Content creators - Volunteer in Portsmouth

We are seeking a creative Content Creator to develop engaging, inclusive digital content that raises awareness of endometriosis and supports our community. You’ll produce social media posts, videos, and graphics aligned with our mission and values.

Your creativity will have a direct and powerful impact on how we connect with people living with endometriosis, particularly those who are often overlooked—such as the LGBTQ+ community, people of colour, those in the military, and individuals living in rural or underserved areas. By helping us tell our story in a way that is accessible, inclusive, and engaging, your work will shape how we present ourselves to the public, potential funders, partners, and most importantly, the people who need our support the most. Your content will help break the silence around a condition that is still too often dismissed or misunderstood, and it will support our mission to inform, advocate, and empower.

We are a small grassroots charity doing big things on a tight budget. Every piece of content you create has the potential to inform someone of their symptoms, connect someone to peer support, or encourage someone to seek care they’ve been too afraid to ask for. You will help us raise awareness, fight misinformation, and create visibility for endometriosis as a full-body, life-impacting condition.

With your input, we can increase our reach, grow our supporter base, and advocate more effectively for inclusive research, better clinical training, and equitable care. Your work will help amplify the voices of those with lived experience—many of whom feel they have never been heard. Together, we can build a future where no one feels alone or unheard in their endometriosis journey. Your impact will be felt every time someone sees a post and says, “That’s me. I didn’t know anyone else felt like this.”

What are we looking for?

You don’t need to be an expert in endometriosis — what matters most is your commitment to producing engaging, accessible, and representative content that reflects the voices of our diverse community.

• Content creation: Experience writing posts, designing graphics, or producing videos for social media, blogs, websites, or campaigns.
• Digital platforms: Familiarity with platforms like Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, and LinkedIn.
• Storytelling: Ability to turn complex ideas, lived experiences, or research into accessible and engaging narratives, respecting tone and context.
• Design awareness: An eye for visual consistency, layout, and accessibility (e.g. use of alt text, high contrast, captioning).
• Audience understanding: An interest in or understanding of how different communities experience health differently, and a desire to create content that speaks directly to them.
• Collaborative mindset: Comfortable receiving feedback, working alongside others (remotely), and being part of a small but passionate team.

Qualities we value

• Empathy and respect: You’ll be working with sensitive topics like chronic illness, trauma, and identity. We need someone who is respectful, non-judgmental, and mindful of language and tone.
• Inclusivity: We want our content to reflect the diversity of our community. A commitment to LGBTQ+ inclusion, anti-racism, disability access, and trauma-informed language is important.
• Curiosity: A willingness to learn more about endometriosis and related conditions, especially through the lens of lived experience, advocacy, and grassroots knowledge.
• Initiative: You don’t need to have all the answers, but we’d love someone confident in bringing their own ideas and creativity to the table.
• Reliability: While the role is flexible, we appreciate volunteers who communicate clearly about their availability and can follow through on agreed-upon pieces of content.

We’re especially keen to hear from people from underrepresented backgrounds, including people of colour, LGBTQ+ people, disabled people, and those from military or working-class communities. Your voice matters here.

What will you be doing?

This is a flexible volunteer role for someone who enjoys storytelling, creating meaningful content, and engaging audiences through inclusive and accessible digital media. You’ll help us build a strong, visible presence across platforms—primarily Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, TikTok, and our website.

What we’d love you to do

The main responsibility is to create engaging, informative, and community-led content that reflects the ethos of Endometriosis South Coast. This could include:

• Writing and designing social media posts and campaign content
• Creating reels, short videos, or infographics to explain symptoms, highlight services, or share lived experience
• Supporting storytelling for awareness weeks, impact reports, or donor updates
• Aligning the content plan with national awareness campaigns and local outreach
• Translating lived experience into sensitive, empowering posts

Key deliverable

Your main goal is to create content that boosts our visibility and impact, especially among underrepresented communities. This helps us better support those living with endometriosis and connect with new supporters, donors, and collaborators. We aim to publish 2–4 pieces of content each week, though this can be adapted to suit your availability. Some posts will be recurring, while others may be reactive or community-driven.

Who you’ll work with

You’ll collaborate with our Marketing Manager and Marketing Trustee, and occasionally with our Founder and community volunteers involved in advocacy or visual storytelling. You may also engage with partner organisations to co-create or share content. We’ll provide check-ins, support, and access to tools like Canva, Google Drive, Meta Business Suite, and Trello to help you work independently and creatively.

Flexibility

This role is very flexible. If you’re great with video, we’d love more TikToks and reels. Prefer writing or designing graphics? We can tailor the work to your strengths and interests. This is not a one-size-fits-all role—it’s about what you enjoy and what fits your capacity.

If you’re passionate about health equity and want to create content that makes a real difference, we’d love to hear from you.
