Together, we can make a difference, one act of kindness at a time
Volunteering is amazing – it’s better than a hobby…this is real life!
Become a Volunteer
We’re passionate about Volunteering and we use that passion to match people with opportunities that are the right fit for them. We know that volunteering is a great way to boost your health and wellbeing whilst making a huge difference in local your community. There’s no better time to start your volunteering journey!
Volunteering can take many different forms from one-off events and roles you can dip in and out of through to longer and more established placements.
To start your volunteering journey, please get in touch and we’ll arrange a time with you to chat it through.
When we get together, we’ll talk about your interests and skills, and your passions and experiences. We want to find out what’s important to you and we’re here to help you find the most suitable role to suit your personality, passions, and commitments.
Stoke-on-Trent Vision for Volunteering
Our Stoke-on-Trent Vision for Volunteering was developed in consultation with the voluntary sector. We worked with our Stoke-on-Trent Volunteer Managers Network, and volunteers themselves in our Volunteer Voices Forum to ensure that it inspires unity in local communities, breaks down barriers to volunteering, and help create positive and fulfilling opportunities where volunteers, organisations, and communities can thrive.
Our Vision
Our vision for volunteering is to create a community where everyone comes together to make a positive impact. We believe that together we can create meaningful connections, foster empathy, and create a real sense of unity.
Putting the ‘unity’ in community, our mission is to inspire others to join in and help make the world a better place for all.
