🎉 Today is the day! 🎉

📌As part of our Volunteers’ Week celebrations, Good Neighbours Derby and the Volunteer Centre Derby are coming together to celebrate the incredible volunteers who make such a difference here at Community Action Derby.

📌Today, we are hosting a special celebration event at the Ukraine Centre, with lots of wonderful activities, treats, and opportunities for our volunteers to relax, connect, and be recognised for everything they do. This event is our way of saying a huge thank you to the people who give their time, kindness, and energy to support others in our community every single day.

🩷Without your dedication and compassion, the work of Good Neighbours Derby and the Volunteer Centre Derby simply would not be possible.🩷

✨We are so grateful for each and every one of you, and we can’t wait to celebrate together today. 🎉

🎉HAPPY VOLUNTEERS WEEK!🎉

🩷This Volunteers’ Week, we’re taking the time to celebrate and thank the incredible volunteers who make Good Neighbours Derby what it is!🩷

📌Every phone call, friendly visit, lift to an appointment, chat over a cup of tea, and act of kindness helps make a real difference to someone in our community. Our volunteers give their time, compassion, and energy to support people who may be feeling isolated or in need of a helping hand and their impact goes far beyond what words can express.

📌At Good Neighbours Derby, community is at the heart of everything we do, and our volunteers are the people who bring that community spirit to life every single day. Whether you’ve been volunteering with us for years or have only recently joined, your support helps create meaningful connections and reminds people that they are not alone.

🩷Thank you for everything you do. Your kindness truly changes lives, and we are so grateful to have you as part of our organisation at Good Neighbours Derby.🩷

💫New look for the Volunteer Centre💫

We’re excited to share that the Derby Volunteer Centre has a fresh new look!

For many years, we used the familiar orange and blue logo that was standard across accredited Volunteer Centres. As this is no longer a requirement, we’ve taken the opportunity to refresh our visual identity.

Our new logo is based on the Community Action branding, bringing us in line with our wider organisational identity and creating a more consistent and recognisable look across all our services.

While our appearance may have changed, our commitment to supporting volunteers and volunteer-involving organisations remains exactly the same. We hope you like the new look!
