Core Services (General Volunteering)

Are you unsure about the kind of volunteering you want to do, or what the benefits of volunteering can bring? Would you like to fill the gaps in your CV?

We understand that finding a volunteer placement is not always easy! Our Core Services team are at the heart of our organisation, with dedicated volunteer advisors we’re here to provide support in finding the right role for you.

When you visit the centre, we’ll explore the reasons why you want to volunteer; whether it be to gain new skills, use it as a platform to apply for jobs, or just simply to give back to your community.

Our trained advisors are on hand to match you with local, relevant opportunities and we have a database full of them!

While you’re here we will call the selected organisations on your behalf and introduce you to the relevant volunteer coordinator where you’ll be able to find out more details about the roles and ask any questions you may have.

We also have many free training opportunities available for people looking to volunteer, take a look at our volunteer training page for further details
