Step 4: Thinking of Volunteering?

Aiming high

Volunteering offers you a great opportunity to get involved and help your local community.

It can help boost your confidence, make new friends, improve your health and learn new skills whilst having fun.

It can be something you do in addition to the day job or can be a great way of getting you back into the workplace if you are not working.

Your local volunteer centre or bureau is the place to start. Or if you already know what you want to do, then contact relevant organisations direct.

Take a look at our skills through volunteering links as your first step.

For ideas of opportunities in your area visit Do-it.org.uk

If you need more information about Volunteer Centres email information@volunteeringengland.org or call Volunteering England on 0845 305 6979.

So what are you waiting for?
Your future is in your hands.
