You could help support local charities.
Volunteering
You could help support local charities like the ones we fund through our Grants Programme by volunteering in roles such as befriending, helping at events, administration, offering support services or working in a charity shop. Charities are also always looking for trustees to help govern the organisation and direct how its managed and run.
The best place to go to find information about local volunteer opportunities is CVS Bedfordshire and you can also visit our Other Sources of Support pages.
The local primary and secondary schools we support through sponsoring the HEART Academies Trust, and on our Accelerator Programme are also on the lookout for school governors who are skilled, motivated people, committed to making an improvement in local schools. Bedford Borough Council provides a comprehensive programme of governor training and support.
We are also often looking for new trustees. Visit our vaccanices page to see if recruitment is open.
