Why we built OnNuma
We created OnNuma because organising volunteers had become harder than it should be. Rotas were complicated, systems felt technical, and the very people needed to keep things running were often the ones struggling to use the tools.
It needed to be simple. Clear. Something that just worked.
From that experience, OnNuma was created. A hub designed around people, not software.
People oriented system
Designed for Esme
“I just want to put my name down and know it’s done. If it takes more than a few seconds, I start to wonder if I’m doing it wrong. With OnNuma it was easy, and I can sign up with my husband in one go.”
OnNuma removes friction. Name and email, choose where to help, done. No accounts. No dashboards. When signing up is easy, people actually do it.

Simple, quick and easy for Volunteers
The volunteer experience that actually gets used - no passwords, no learning curve.
Your volunteers get a simple, personal view that feels human, not like software. No passwords, no learning curve - just a link to sign in and everything they need in one place.
- Sign in with a magic link - no password to remember
- See upcoming shifts and events at a glance
- Set serving preferences and say when you can’t make it
- Sign up to rotas in a few taps and add to calendar
Each volunteer gets their own dashboard showing the next shift, invitations, and what’s coming up. One-tap confirmations and clear calls to action mean less back-and-forth and fewer no-shows.
- Next shift and event details front and centre
- Add to Google or Outlook calendar in one tap
- "Can’t make it" so organisers know straight away
- Links to past shifts and preference settings
Volunteers choose the roles they’re interested in and when they’re available. Organisers see who can do what without guessing or chasing - and saying no feels safe and acceptable.
- Pick roles you’d like to serve in (e.g. Welcome, Sound, Host)
- Set away dates so you’re not asked when you’re unavailable
- Organisers filter by availability and role interest
- Fewer last-minute gaps and less burnout
Signing up is effortless. Open a rota, tick the dates that work, and confirm. No forms, no accounts - just clear choices and an instant confirmation with calendar links.
- See rotas by event (e.g. Sunday service, team meeting)
- Tick the slots you can do; see how many places are left
- One-tap confirm and add to your calendar
- Get a single summary email with your full schedule
Rota reminders and magic-link login by email or text. Volunteers who prefer SMS get the same clarity without checking their inbox. Add shifts to your calendar so you never double-book.
- Automatic reminders before each shift
- Magic-link sign-in by email or optional SMS
- Add to Google, Outlook or Apple Calendar
- SMS add-on for those who prefer text
YouthHub - a portal teens actually want to open
MyHub works brilliantly for adult volunteers. YouthHub is the teen-facing companion - a vibrant, mobile portal where young people aged 11-17 see their shifts, browse open roles, and sign up with guardian approval.
Built for teens, not toddlers
A bold, mobile-first portal designed for 11-17 year olds - confident and clear, not childish.
See shifts and sign up
Teens view upcoming team shifts, browse open roles, and tap to get involved - all from their phone.
Guardian approval built in
Sign-up requests go to a parent or guardian first. Leaders are notified too - safeguarding by design.
What's On diary
Church events and youth activities in one scrollable diary - dates, times, and details at a glance.
