Tell us about the volunteering that you do and the impact this makes...

It’s National Volunteers Week. Do you volunteer by yourself, does your organisation support you to volunteer? We’d love to hear all the different ways that you give back.

On Thursday, we're celebrating our volunteers by hosting a Volunteer Summit.

  • I've been volunteering as a Trustee at a local charity for just over a year, the charity has been running for over 30 years and its great to be able to support them, it has given me the opportunity to learn new skills but also to share my expertise and strengthen my knowledge.

    There are so many small charities out there that are crying out for support because they just don't have the funds or the skills in house. Our trustees get involved with everything and anything , fundraising, marketing, business planning. My organisation allows me to fit these commitments in around my working hours (as I am full time) and they are really supportive.

    There is so much variety and opportunity out there and you can turn your hand to anything.
