Canterbury and Herne Bay Volunteer Centre: Empowering Communities through Volunteering
Are you looking for a way to give back to your community? Do you want to make a difference in the lives of others while gaining valuable skills and experiences? Look no further than Canterbury and Herne Bay Volunteer Centre.
At Canterbury and Herne Bay Volunteer Centre, we believe that we're better together. Our mission is to empower individuals, organizations, and communities through volunteering. We provide a platform for volunteers to connect with local charities, non-profits, and community groups that need their help.
The personal benefits of volunteering are huge. Volunteering can help you meet new people, keep you active while unemployed or retired, build up new areas of your C.V., give you a good reference for future job applications or college admissions, improve your mental health by reducing stress levels and increasing happiness levels. It's also an excellent opportunity to learn new skills or develop existing ones.
Our volunteer centre has been serving the Canterbury area since 1973. We have built strong relationships with local organizations over the years which allows us to match volunteers with opportunities that align with their interests and skill sets.
We offer various types of volunteering opportunities such as befriending elderly people who may be lonely or isolated; helping out at events such as festivals or charity fundraisers; supporting children in schools by reading books aloud; assisting disabled people in accessing services they need; providing administrative support for charities etc.
We also offer training courses on topics such as safeguarding vulnerable adults/children; first aid training; fundraising techniques etc., which can help volunteers gain additional skills that will benefit them both personally and professionally.
Our volunteer centre is run by a team of dedicated staff members who are passionate about making a positive impact on our community. They work tirelessly behind the scenes to ensure that our volunteers have access to high-quality opportunities while ensuring that our partner organizations receive the support they need from us too!
