Benefits of being a volunteer

Whatever your reason for becoming a volunteer there are huge benefits not only for the person you will be supporting but also for you.

Real Job Opportunities

Lancashire County Council advertises job opportunities each week. Volunteering will give you relevant experiences to help you get your foot on the employment ladder.

Improve your C.V.

Employers favour people who have become involved in voluntary work. Volunteering shows commitment and employability skills.

Training

We have a 12 month training package to enhance your volunteer activities. This will increase our knowledge and experiences.

Friendship

Sharing a hobby or an interest is often better than doing it in isolation.

New Challenge

Try something new, something different.

Out of pocket expenses

You will not be out of pocket financially, all pre-agreed expenses e.g. mileage, car parking are reimbursed.
