Volunteering – what does it involve?

Volunteering is about giving your time to a good cause. You don’t get paid but you do get the chance to use your talents, develop new skills, add new experiences to your C.V, meet people and make new friends.

 

Can I do it?

Anyone can volunteer. Whatever your background, work experience, gender or age you will have a skill that someone needs. No matter how busy you are there will be something that you can do.

 

Can I do anything?

More or less. There are over one thousand volunteering opportunities across Wiltshire. You might be interested in volunteering directly with people or perhaps you’d be happier ‘behind the scenes’. Some people may want a regular volunteering opportunity while others may want to volunteer occasionally. There’s something for everyone.

 

How do I find something?

All of the available opportunities are on the national volunteering website DO-IT: www.do-it.org.uk. If you click on the pink button "View all our Volunteering Opportunities" to the right you will be directed to the do-it website, it will automatically show you all of our current opportunities, but you can just enter your postcode to find out what’s available local to you. Once you have found something you like you can register your details and you will be emailed further information. If you would like to view our latest volunteer newsletter click here.
