COMMUNITY AND VOLUNTEERING

Across Worcestershire there are many opportunities to get involved with your local community and volunteer to help with projects and activities.

If you are already involved in a community group, there are various support programmes to help with sustainability projects.

Why Volunteer?

Aswell as making a positive contribution to your community, volunteering can be a great way to make new friends and learn new skills. There are lots of environmental volunteering opportunities with organisations throughout Worcestershire. By working together Community Groups can have an impact on the future of the local environment.

Every Action Counts

Small steps to make your group, club or society more sustainable can have a lasting impact on your group, your community and the environment.

The Every Action Counts programme helps community groups lead the way to a better future through support, training and funding advice.
