Love to Volunteer

Watch this space for more information on this emerging initiative, part of the Love to... portfolio of projects.

Love to Volunteer will promote links between volunteers and voluntary opportunities within leisure, culture and sport around the district. The Council will work in partnership with
St Albans and District CVS in order to help organisations like sports clubs and community groups to find volunteers to support their sessions, activities or events.   

If you are a local club, society or voluntary organisation working in the field of leisure, culture or sport and are looking to recruit volunteers, we'd like to hear from you. Let us know the opportunities you have to offer and what it is you are looking for.

If you are interested in volunteering in this kind of area, we'd like to hear from you too! Let us know what interests you and which area(s) you would like to get involved with.

Please email Ricky Manning (Community Project Officer) or phone 01727 819369.
