The Cup will take place over the week of June 2, 2025. We need help managing the matches with crowd control, player assistance, and social media sharing. Matches will take place during the day in Pozuelo during the week.

Royal National Children’s SpringBoard Foundation is the UK’s leading bursary charity providing children from under-served communities and from the care system opportunities to attend independent schools.

As a charity working with and for young people we are dedicated to ensure the young people we support are involved in decision making and strategy setting, the 'young people's voice' is very relevant and important. To enable this participation we have convened a Youth Advisory Board to ask questions such as ‘how was it for you’ ‘how can we do it better’ ‘how can we engage you more’.

We would be very grateful to get some insight and advice from someone who has knowledge of customer insights or customer/marketing to help us work more efficiently and better be able to engage the young people constructively. To set up feedback loops and a Youth Advisory Board that feels invested and involved.

Royal National Children’s SpringBoard Foundation is the UK’s leading bursary charity providing children from under-served communities and from the care system opportunities to attend independent schools.

This opportunity is to provide weekly, monthly, or quarterly support (depending on time available) to our communications team consisting of one full time employee with a one day a week focus on comms, alongside a freelancer ‘SpringBoarder’ alum who works on Wednesdays. The focus would be to recommend communications strategies to support maintaining and improving the existing online presence, including website and social media content. (I would say one day a month would be ideal). This would take place online or in person depending on where the volunteer is based.

This would be incredibly valuable support to the team who are dedicating as much time as they can on the communications, however because of resource constraints we are aware that we could achieve much more with your help and expertise!
