  • At Volunteering Matters, we bring people together to overcome some of society’s most complex issues through the power of volunteering. This builds stronger communities and enables everyone to thrive.We work with local partners, turning local knowledge and energy into action and progress. We work with volunteers to make a real difference on the issues they care about, from immediate responses to fostering long term change. We enable volunteers to use their local knowledge and life experiences and collectively we tackle complex issues. In line with our overall strategy our projects support one or more of these areas: - Reducing social isolation and loneliness- Improving mental and physical health- Building skills, confidence and opportunity- Ensuring young people can lead change
