Volunteer Centre

Need Volunteers?
If you need volunteers to help your organisation, then tell us!

We will ask you to complete a registration form, giving us details of your organisation and explaining the tasks you would like the volunteer to do
You will also be asked to write a brief advertisement for your opportunity, which will be broadcast on Do-It.org.uk, the National Volunteering Website, in our bi-monthly Current Vacancies sheet and sometimes in 'The News'. We cannot guarantee to fill your vacancy but we will make sure lots of people hear about it.
Advice is always on hand for those with little or no experience of working with volunteers and who need guidance on issues like expenses, references, insurance and general good practices.
