Advocacy & Policy Support Volunteer

Helping drive change for motherless mothers through evidence, awareness, and influence

Why this role matters

At TMM, we don’t just provide support - we work to change the systems, services, and conversations that shape the experiences of motherless mothers. Through advocacy, we raise awareness, influence decision‐makers, and help ensure that women’s voices are heard in healthcare, policy, and public understanding.

We’re looking for volunteers who are passionate about creating positive change and want to help strengthen our advocacy and policy work.

What you’ll do

Depending on your interests and experience, you may support with:

  • Researching policies, guidance, and relevant developments

  • Helping draft consultation responses, briefing notes, or position statements

  • Supporting awareness campaigns and advocacy initiatives

  • Monitoring developments in healthcare, bereavement care, and maternal wellbeing

  • Gathering evidence, insights, and lived‐experience stories that illustrate the need for change

  • Assisting with stakeholder engagement and relationship‐building activities

What you’ll bring

  • An interest in social change, healthcare, policy, or advocacy

  • Strong research and communication skills

  • Curiosity, critical thinking, and attention to detail

  • A commitment to representing lived experiences with care and respect

  • Enthusiasm for helping improve outcomes for motherless mothers

  • You don’t need formal policy experience — care, curiosity, and a willingness to learn are just as valuable.

Time commitment

  • Flexible and project‐based

  • Can be shaped around your availability

What you’ll get out of it

  • Experience in advocacy, campaigning, and policy‐related work

  • Insight into healthcare systems and bereavement‐informed support

  • Opportunities to develop research, writing, and stakeholder‐engagement skills

  • A meaningful role in helping shape positive change

  • Connection with a team committed to improving support for mothers and families
