Volunteer Opportunity: Communication and Engagement, YCC
Wed, 05/14/2025 - 16:56

Join the York Climate Commission’s New Communications & Engagement Working Group
Help us turn up the volume on climate action in York.
The York Climate Commission exists to catalyse and coordinate the urgent climate response our city needs. But right now, we’re too quiet. Too hidden. And too few people know who we are, what we do, or how they can help. That’s why we’re launching a brand new Communications & Engagement Working Group — and we’re looking for passionate, strategic, and practical volunteers to shape and lead it. You do not need to have communication experience to be part of the working group.
This is your chance to help rewrite the story of York’s climate ambition to be net-zero by 2030 and make York a city we can all be proud of.
What we’re looking for:
We need both:
-
A Working Group Lead – who will also sit on the Commission’s Steering Group. Ideally with some communication, marketing or engagement experience. Someone who can take on a leadership role, organise the working group well to work smart and contribute to steering group discussions.
-
Working Group Members – a diverse mix of skills, experience, and energy to drive real change. We have a lot of work to do to improve our communication and engagement and need all the help we can get.
Whether you're a strategist, a digital whizz, a campaigner, a storyteller, a fundraiser, a designer, or someone who simply cares deeply about climate action in York — there’s a place for you.
