Why Volunteer?

Volunteering is an opportunity for the general public to:

Fill your spare time ◊ Meet new people ◊ Do something you enjoy ◊ Share your knowledge and skill
Learn and develop new skills ◊ Experience wider opportunities ◊ Improve your job prospects
Build self confidence ◊ Get involved in your community ◊ Offer fresh ideas

 ◊ If you wish to talk to some one about becoming involved, confidential one-to-one interviews are available with an experienced member of staff (see the Contact page for telephone numbers, or just drop in for a chat!).
