Time is precious.
By spending it volunteering, you could change your life. You could change other people’s lives. Or you could simply be a little happier, healthier, more employable, or wordlier.
Each month on our Opportunities page we’ll be letting you know about a new way in which you could benefit by volunteering, from developing new skills, making new friends, getting some gentle exercise, testing out that career change you’ve been thinking about, or simply taking up a great hobby.
You’ll also have the chance to hear from some of Sheffield’s very own volunteers who help out at different organisations across the city (see Sheffield Volunteers’ Experiences), so you can hear from the horse’s mouth what it’s all about. And of course you can leave comments / ask questions too.
If you want a quick taste of volunteering, why not try helping at a one-off event? Have a look at our Events page for some ideas! And for more help and advice on any sort of volunteering, there are several places in Sheffield where people are ready and waiting to talk to you about the possibilities open to you and how you can get involved – have a look at our Finding Help page to find them.
