Benefits of Volunteering

Having fun

It provides so many opportunities to experience new things and have fun along the way. There’s a huge range of events and activities to choose from.

Develop new skills

Being a volunteer means that you can learn new and enhance existing skills, which are also useful and relevant for the workplace as a great way to boost your CV.

Improve your health

Volunteering can also improve your mental health and wellbeing. Studies show it increases self-esteem and life satisfaction.

Making a difference

It provides so many opportunities to experience new things and have fun along the way. There’s a huge range of events and activities to choose from.

What do our volunteers do?

Each role is unique, so whatever your skills, hobbies or passions, whether you’re into sports, days out, adventures or even admin there’s a home and a community for you.

No two volunteers are the same and no two days are alike. One day you could be going to the theatre with a coachload of friends. Or next week you could be organising a litter pick at a local park.

As a volunteer, you have the freedom, inspiration and diversity of ideas to make the role your own. Perhaps you like to get hands-on and attend a yoga class, or maybe you’d prefer to help organise a one-off coach trip.

Wherever your interests lie and whatever commitments you wish to make, CSSC’s diverse range of volunteering opportunities offer fun, fulfilment, friendship and flexibility and there really is something to suit everyone.
