Put simply, volunteering is about choosing to give some of your time for free to benefit the community. Volunteers are people from all walks of life, all ages and stages. Whether you’re 18 or 80, looking for a new challenge or to share your life experiences, we believe that there is a volunteering opportunity out there for everyone! Volunteers are involved in virtually every aspect of society – from health, education and social services to arts, culture and media or sports and recreation. There are volunteering roles out there to suit all interests and skills and it is the role of the Volunteer Centre to support anyone interested in volunteering, to find the right role for them. Another great way to get involved is the newly launched DLR Community Volunteers. This initiative run by the Volunteer Centre in partnership with the Dún Laoghaire Rathdown County Council involves volunteers at local community events and in response to urgent community needs. Anyone who is interested can sign up to volunteer at a time that suits them. Volunteering with the Community Volunteers is a great way to meet new people, gain new skills and try out volunteering. If you’d like to find out more about volunteering or the Community Volunteers, do get in touch. We are available by phone, email or in person.
