Volunteering

If you would like to know anything about volunteering, please contact the Volunteer Centre at South Downs CVS. You can call in on Monday or Wednesday afternoons (1-4) or ring 01273 470108 (answerphone) or e-mail: volunteer@southdownscvs.org.uk.

We hold information on a range of volunteering opportunities in the local area. We can advise you on what to expect as a volunteer. We have a newsletter giving information on current volunteering options. You can also check the national volunteering database www.do-it.org.uk for volunteering opportunities both local and national.

If your organisation is looking for volunteers, let us know and we can publicise your needs. We can enter your details on the national volunteering database www.do-it.org.uk which will reach a much wider audience.
