Volunteering opportunities
New volunteering opportunities are constantly becoming available but we are also planning ahead for the needs of communities over the coming months. We would encourage you to register your interest now through one of the following organisations.
We’ve had a great response across Greater Manchester. Every offer of support is needed and welcomed, and we’re working through applications to match people with relevant opportunities. Please be patient once you’ve applied as you may not get an immediate response:
A Message from the Mayor, Andy Burnham
"The people of our city-region are compassionate – we don’t just walk on by. I want to kick-start a volunteering drive that sees the Greater Manchester public befriend their neighbours and others living and working nearby, running errands, collecting and distributing medicines and in general ensuring our older citizens are safe and well."
“We are living in a challenging period but, together, we will get through this like we have so many depressions, recessions and dark times before. That is the spirit of Greater Manchester.”
