The Volunteers Fair was a huge success this afternoon at The Core Library. The New Communities Team and The Solihull Community Development Team brought together a wide range of organisations and charities with current volunteer opportunities available across Solihull.

It was fantastic to see so many residents attend, speak with local groups, and explore the many ways they can get involved in supporting their communities.

A big thank you to all the organisations, charities, and volunteers who took part and helped make the event such a success.

👀 Keep an eye on Solihull Community Development Team Volunteering Opportunities for future events, volunteering opportunities, and ways to get involved in your local community.

It was such an honour to bring together the Moments Dementia Group from United Reformed Church and the wonderful residents of Blossomfield Rose Nursing Home - Macc Care together this morning. ❤️

There was plenty of laughter, smiles, and a wonderful sing-along that everyone thoroughly enjoyed. 🎶

A huge thank you to the team at Blossomfield Rose Care Home for such a warm welcome and for helping to make the morning so special.

Amazing things truly happen when communities come together. Bringing people together, creating connections, and sharing special moments is what community is all about. ❤️
