An FEI Ambassador is a committed volunteer that helps the charity expand its reach and impact worldwide. FEI exists to create a world free from barriers, where people with facial differences are proud to be themselves. 

Help lead the global movement for face equality. 

This is a proactive, public-facing role best suited to people who are ready to engage their networks and communities, support fundraising activity, and champion face equality locally or globally. 

An FEI Ambassador is a public-facing, fundraising and awareness role designed to support FEI’s charitable objectives. Ambassadors are storytellers, advocates, connectors from across the globe, and most of all, fundraisers with lived experience!

What matters most is alignment with our mission, reliability, and willingness to actively contribute.

All Ambassadors receive onboarding, guidance, and clear boundaries — and are supported by FEI staff throughout.

The Ambassador programme is relaunched annually through an open application process.

Please note: this role includes a strong focus on fundraising and proactive engagement. If this isn’t right for you, there are many other ways to support FEI below.

At times, we offer project-based or skills-based volunteering, mentoring opportunities, or short-term support roles.

These are advertised periodically and designed to be flexible and accessible.

We are committed to safeguarding, dignity, and wellbeing across our community.
