The
Volunteer Centre also hosts the Supported Volunteering Project which
provides a helping hand to anyone who wants to volunteer, but may feel
that they need a bit of extra support.
If, for example, you are
recovering from a period of mental ill health or have a learning
disability, you might find taking the first step into volunteering a
bit daunting. The Supported volunteering project aims to make this as
easy as possible.
