Help to get you started with volunteering
If you are not sure what you would like to do or would like some additional help, we run a supported volunteering project that helps people take part in some volunteering taster sessions and provides the chance to work towards a level one qualification. The project is run several times a year and lasts 6 – 8 weeks. Sessions take place once a week, with each one lasting approximately 5 hours. Taking part in the project is free and transport can be provided. For more information on this scheme, please email [email protected] or phone 01352 744000
