Community matters

The 1st–7th June is National Volunteers' Week across the UK. It is estimated that over half of all those aged 16+ in England and Wales have volunteered at least once in the past 12 months, around one in three volunteering at least once per month.

Wanting to improve things and help people, meeting people and making friends, and supporting the local community are all key motivators for volunteering. Volunteering is also connected to improved mental health and wellbeing.
