Organisation Description: Real differences for real lives

At the Together Trust we believe everybody deserves an equal chance in life. There are no exceptions. We provide a wide range of support services including fostering, residential, community and family support. We also provide specialist educational support through our schools and college.
Description of role: Want to get hands-on experience in fashion photography while supporting a good cause? As a Fashion Photographer with Together Trust, you'll be at the heart of our fundraising efforts, capturing stylish shots of brand-new and vintage clothing to help raise money for our life-changing services. You’ll be working with a fun, creative team and using your photography skills to showcase clothes donated by big names like Boohoo and preloved gems from our local community.

You’ll also have the chance to level up your social media game by posting your shots on platforms like Depop and Vinted (if you're up for it), helping us sell these items and fundraise in the process!

We’re looking for enthusiastic volunteers of all backgrounds to get involved – no previous experience required, just a love for fashion and a desire to help! All we ask is that you bring your energy and creativity. You can stop volunteering at any time, and you’ll always be supported by our team. Ideally, we’re looking for 2-6 hours a week
