What is Volunteering for All
We support people and organisations across Cambridgeshire to get involved in volunteering in ways that are inclusive, accessible, and meaningful.
Volunteering can help people build confidence, reduce isolation, develop skills, and feel more connected to their community.
People we have supported have told us that volunteering helped them feel less isolated and improved their wellbeing. Some have also moved on to education or employment after volunteering.
Volunteering can change lives by reducing isolation, building confidence and skills, and strengthening communities.
What we offer
We can support:
People who want to volunteer
We provide guidance and support to help people find volunteering opportunities that feel right for them, especially if they are unsure where to start or face barriers to getting involved.
Voluntary and community organisations
We support organisations to develop inclusive volunteering opportunities and connect with people who want to volunteer.
Volunteer promotion, events, and engagement
We support the promotion of volunteering opportunities through presentations, participation in events, and local volunteering promotion activities such as Volunteer Blends and community pop-ins (and Volunteer Cambs where appropriate).
