The best kept secret about volunteering? You often get as much as you give.

The support we receive can inspire the support we give.

Thankyou to Sydney who volunteers as a befriender for our Young Persons Befriending Service.

Meet Andrew, who volunteers with YPBS: he wanted to help a young person who's not been as lucky as him, while taking on some responsibility to find more purpose in his own life.

When asked what volunteering means to them, he said:
“(It's) easily the best thing I've ever done with my life (that and marrying my wife - in case she sees this)”.

A glowing review of volunteering...and a wise save at the end there.

This Volunteers' Week, we're celebrating stories like these and the people behind them💙.

For National Volunteers’ Week, we’re shining a light on the amazing people who give their time, energy & skills to support others.

Meet Mari, who volunteers with our Young Persons Befriending Service.

When asked what volunteering means to them, they said:

“It has been a fun and fulfilling journey accompanying a young person as they develop their skills and confidence and helping them along the way and I’ve done a lot of learning too, particularly about snakes and dinosaurs!”

Volunteering can build confidence, friendships, purpose, skills — and often becomes something people look forward to each week.

Thank you, Mari, for everything you do 💙

This week, we celebrate the people who make such a difference💙.

For National Volunteers’ Week, we want to say a huge thank you to every volunteer who gives their time, energy, skills and kindness to support others.

Whether it’s one hour or many, behind the scenes or front and centre — your contribution matters more than you know.

You don’t just give time. You create connection, confidence, community and change.

Thank you. We couldn’t do it without you.
