Volunteer

Welcome to Lancashire County Council Volunteering website.

We wish everyone best wishes for 2012 - could volunteering be part of your new years resolution?

We have a wide variety of volunteering opportunities which are updated on a regular basis.

Volunteering can be a challenging experience and it can be very rewarding, knowing that you may have made a difference either to the lives of others or your local community. Volunteering is about giving your time to do something useful, in return you get the satisfaction of time and effort well spent. Volunteering can open doors into Employment, Education, Friendship and Life. If you're studying for a course then volunteering may give you valuable experience - check our our FAQ for some examples of how volunteering enhances studies.

If you are volunteering as a route into paid employment we may be able to support you.
