We run a number of events each year to help support our community youth projects and volunteering opportunities across Leicester and Leicestershire. From bake sales to nightwalks and mountain climbs to custom tshirts, we could use your help and support.
Find out more about each of our projects and opportunities through the words of the volunteers and participants themselves. This is also a place where our volunteers can share their thoughts and feelings about some of the important things in their lives.
As a 100% volunteer led organisation, we rely on volunteers to help run our projects. We are also specialists in providing volunteering opportunities for young people aged 13-18, including some you cannot find anywhere else in the country.
We are looking for groups and individuals to help clean up their local communities, improve recycling, bring back green spaces and more. This act will help give your community a sense of pride, support local plants and animals to survive and thrive as well as help us to raise much needed funds in the process. Whether you’re at school, a college, a business or a member of the public, see how you can help and support youth work at the same time.
We deliver youth projects to schools and colleges as well as host youth volunteering opportunities and ways for the public to get involved in the communities around Leicester and Leicestershire.
