Join us & support Reading’s journey to Net Zero!
Reading Climate Change Partnership (RCCP) is currently between two Climate Emergency Strategies, so the Lead Comms Volunteer will be tasked with community-building tasks during this interim period (i.e. until mid 2025). In early to mid-2025, we will develop a more long-term comms strategy which supports the promotion and delivery of the new Climate Emergency Strategy for 2025 – 2030.
Tasks involved in this role:
- Develop ReadingCAN social media strategy, with support from RCCP Co-ordinator
- Develop comms metrics and recruit additional volunteer help to manage a programme of impact measurement.
- Develop and deliver a process for gathering news from local climate groups.
- Produce blogs for the “Who’s doing what about climate and biodiversity in Reading?” blog series, using interviews. (Recruit additional writers if necessary.)
- Deliver one newsletter every two months.
- Help build a Reading Climate Communications Alliance, with support from the RCCP Co-ordinator.
- Deliver social media content across Instagram, X and Facebook.
- Build a photo gallery for use by ReadingCAN, working with local photographers.
- Help recruit additional volunteers to support with above tasks, as needed.

We are keen to work with an experienced comms lead as well as less experienced supporting comms roles.
