Apply to be a Uni Boob Team Leader

  • Hi there, grab a drink, get comfy, and take the first step towards your journey with Team Boobs

    Our charity is committed to the positive promotion of equality of opportunity across all volunteering programmes. We strongly encourage applications from Black students & people of colour, students in the LGBTQIA+ community, and those who feel CoppaFeel! does not currently represent them.
  • Before you get started

    We can't wait to hear all about you! Before you start, make sure you've had a good look through the 'role description' – this will help you understand what the role involves, and will describe the kind of chest-loving folk we're looking for! You can find the Role Description above.
  • Application key dates

    Applications and interviews take place from June-August and an induction and training session will take place in August/September.
  • A little bit about you

  • For example: she/her, he/him, they/them etc.
  • For example: Nottingham Trent University
  • For example: BSc Natural Sciences
  • This helps us know what point you are at in your degree
  • Please tick all that apply. This isn't a test! It simply helps us understand what interests people about the role.
  • We know it's difficult to choose but try *really* hard
  • Your contact details & preferences

    We ask that you provide us with some contact information so that we can reach you in relation to your application for this role. Our privacy policy explains how, why, and where we may collect and use your personal information. You can find a copy on our website: https://coppafeel.org/privacy-policy/.
  • For example: sammi@gmail.com
  • For example: s.keys@ntu.ac.uk
  • Please provide a UK number where possible. Please provide the country code if you have an international number, for example (+223) XXX XXX XXX
  • Your involvement

    Asking about your involvement with the Uni Boob Team programme helps us to know if you are new to CoppaFeel! or not.
  • If your Uni Boob Team is an official society/club, affiliated to your Students' Union (SU), they will run an election or Annual General Meeting (AGM) to choose the next team leader. If your UBT is unaffiliated with the SU, there may be a less formal process to choosing the next team leader.
  • The application bit

    Here we'll ask you a few questions about yourself in relation to the role of Uni Boob Team Leader. We'd recommend you read the 'role description' before answering the application questions.
  • Please refer to the role description when answering this question
  • Please give examples and explain how you would approach this
  • This should be relevant to your application and the role of Uni Boob Team Leader
  • Extra information & consent

    Some final bits of information for us to progress your application
  • We're a UK based charity and our services are based here so unfortunately, we're only able to recruit students based at UK universities.
  • The Uni Boob Team programme is flexible around your studies and there will inevitably be quieter periods during the year. We do however expect you to be active from term 1 to 3. This doesn't necessarily mean running awareness events/activities, but you should intend to continue communicating with Boob HQ for the duration of your role (up to June 2025).
  • All Uni Boob Team Leaders must be willing and available to complete an online induction (eLearning), and attend Boob School or the equivalent training. The induction is flexible and can be completed in your own time. Boob School will be held at the end of August - early September 2024.
  • If you are unsuccessful then we would LOVE for you to still be involved with your local team. Select 'Yes' to opt in so we can share your details with the chosen Uni Boob Team Leader.
  • Contact Preferences

    We'd love to keep in touch with you, and share all the latest news from Boob HQ and our work to spread our chest-checking message. Please tick the boxes below if you are happy to hear from us about our activities, including opportunities to help support us through volunteering, fundraising, or our events, and sharing the odd pun or two direct to your inbox. We promise to look after your data. See our privacy policy below
