Many activities and services in Herefordshire would not be around, if it weren't for the thousands of volunteering hours, provided by hundreds of volunteers, who give up their time for free.
Whether working with children and young people, older people, disabled people, being a driver in a community transport scheme, a school governor, a trustee or providing skilled advice through an advice centre, volunteers contribute to the fabric of our communities.
The short answer is - in many places and organisations. There are hundreds of organisations in the County, which are always looking for volunteers, and you should find something that suits you. The easiest way to find out is to contact the two main Volunteering Centres, see the contact box on the right for further information or you can also visit http://www.do-it.org.uk/, a national database of volunteering opportunities.
Over the coming weeks and months we will provide examples, provided by some of our partners in the voluntary and community sector of volunteering opportunities. This will be only a small selection of opportunities and will hopefully 'whet your appetite' to get involved in your community.
