Working with Organisations

Volunteers are a vital resource for any organisation, bringing enthusiasm, skills, experience, fresh ideas and new ways of working

One of our key roles is to help find volunteers for organisations that want them.  Our knowledge of local voluntary organisations, the public sector and community groups makes us the first point of contact for anyone interested in finding out about local volunteering opportunities.

If you would like use to help you find volunteers for your organisation, please call us for an organisation and opportunity registration pack.  If you like, our staff will be happy to meet with you to discuss how we can help.
