Gear changer cable loose

I don't know if there's enough information in this picture or if any further information is needed but the bike is a 1982 Hercules Commuter with three Sturmey Archer gears. The cable is loose at the end of the gear changer. It's not being gripped in whatever way it's supposed to be. Could someone direct me to the information I need to know how to fix this? Thanks.

Perhaps this will help?
