If you would like to develop new skills, meet new people and enjoy new experiences, then you should try volunteering.

Whether your passion is gardening, cooking, DIY, engineering, IT, marketing or childcare, there’s something for everyone.

On Thursday, June 12th, a special Volunteer Recruitment event takes place from 11am to 2pm at St Barnabas Church on Erdington High Street.

Hosted by Erdington Neighbourhood Network Scheme, a range of organisations will be attending to promote all their volunteering opportunities across the Erdington area.  You can also get first hand advice and guidance on how you can support local people and local communities while learning something new.

So if you have a few hours to spare each week, why not start a new adventure. Volunteering has so many benefits.
