Volunteering Opportunities

‘Volunteering can make a positive impact on your community. But did you know that it can have many benefits for you too? Here are some reasons to volunteer:

 

Learn or develop a new skill - get real life experience through hands-on work.

 

Boost your career  - A survey by Reed  of 200 of the UK's top businesses showed that 73% of employers would recruit a candidate with volunteering experience over one without  and  94% of employees who volunteered to learn new skills had benefited either by getting their first job, improving their salary, or being promoted.

 

Be part of your community - meet new people often from different and diverse backgrounds.

 

New interests and hobbies -volunteering can give that escape to everyday routine and create a balance in our lives.

 

Whether you want to volunteer regularly or just once in a while, at YMCA Central Herts we have opportunities from as little as one hour a week, to once in a while for a special event. We currently have opportunities in some of the following areas to name just a few and we would love to hear from you;

  • Community Work
  • Shops
  • IT Suite
