Volunteer Centre Greenwich: at the heart of the community

Volunteer Centre Greenwich works with individuals and groups, utilising volunteering as a way to learn new skills, increase confidence and enhance employability skills. We help local people find volunteering opportunities through online and face-to-face signposting services. People volunteer for many different reasons, it’s fun, provides social connections and friendships. Our database and trained volunteer advisors enable people to find volunteering roles to suit their needs.

We also offer a range of services to notfor-profit organisations; the promotion of volunteering opportunities; sharing information, providing training and advice on recruiting and managing volunteers and giving guidance on best practice. This ensures that volunteers have the best experience.

At Volunteer Centre Greenwich our project work directly supports the local community in Greenwich providing dedicated time and resources to suit an individual’s needs. The Supported Volunteering Project works with adults with a learning disability or autism and pairs them with mentors who help them access volunteering opportunities, develop skills, and gain experience that can lead to paid work or greater involvement in community life.

The Emotional Wellbeing Project offers one-toone befriending support and community-based activities to reduce loneliness, tackle isolation, and promote mental wellbeing. Meanwhile, the

Women and Girls Health Project and Specialist Community Champions raise awareness of available support and work to reduce health inequalities across the borough.
