It's very easy getting started....
Why not visit one of our Volunteer Centres 
 
Our interviewers are volunteers too.  They understand how you might feel about trying something new.
 
You will be invited to have a chat about what you think that you might like to do as a volunteer and what you definitely don't want to get involved with.
 
We have information about 300+ opportunities on our books, so we are more than likely to find something that interests you.
