YOUTH VOLUNTEERING

Get involved!

Volunteering is all about making a difference in your community, and being an important part of it. But it is also about what you can get from the experience.

Young people volunteer for various reasons:

  • Meet new friends
  • Learn new skills or develop/maintain existing ones
  • Build confidence
  • Gain experience and increase employability
  • Feel the buzz of helping others

Volunteering isn’t all about getting the tasks completed, it often involves a lot of fun too!

We make sure opportunities are of a high-quality standard, so that you as a young volunteer, will get the most out of your experience!
