Want to Volunteer?

 

Thank you for thinking about volunteering

Volunteering is simple. It's about giving your time to do something useful, without getting paid (apart from expenses).

Volunteering can be a fulfilling and worthwhile experience;  you get the satisfaction of time and effort well spent and it's a great way to meet new people, learn new skills and gain useful experience. It should also be fun!

The range of opportunities is huge. Whatever skills and experience you have, there is something that you can do.

How to find out more:

  • contact your local Volunteer Centre for a more personalised service
  • browse on the 'do-it' website that lists volunteering opportunities all over the UK
