FAQ’s

What is Volunteering?

Volunteering is about giving your time and skills, without pay, for the benefit of others, the local community and very importantly yourself!

You can learn new skills, build confidence, make new friends, or simply take pleasure in being a part of something or supporting a cause that you believe in.

Volunteering is usually done with voluntary, community, faith or statutory organisations. Private companies sometimes offer their staff time to take part in employee volunteering.

Before you start to look at the options available in Dudley and beyond it is important to think about what you want to get out of volunteering.
