Volunteer Photographer – Help Capture Our Mission

We are Blood Cancer UK, the UK’s largest blood cancer charity and a leading funder of life-changing research. For over 60 years, we've been dedicated to beating blood cancer, helping to establish the UK as a global leader in research and support.

We’re looking for passionate volunteer photographers to help capture the heart of our work. Your photos will showcase our events, community activities, and the people we support—raising awareness, engaging supporters, and driving our mission forward. Join us in making a difference through the power of photography!

Experience required

We welcome photographers of all experience levels, as long as you have:
• Access to a DSLR or high-quality digital camera.
• Your own photography and editing equipment (including software).
• An eye for capturing engaging and impactful moments.
• Confidence in working independently and taking initiative.
• Good interpersonal skills, with the ability to work with a variety of people, including children.
• Previous experience using photo editing software.
• Experience following a photographic brief (preferred but not essential).
• Being organised and reliable.

Please note: Volunteer photographers should have their own insurance for equipment protection. Blood Cancer UK cannot cover damage, loss, or theft of personal photography equipment.
