Hello all,

I am 30 years old, wheelchair user and trying to find some Voluntary work as I am not working at the moment. I am looking in North West London. I do not want to vovolunteer in a Charity shop as it will be hard for me to move around.

Any help or guidence would be aappreciated.

Heya @queen_k it's great you're looking to do some volunteering! Have you looked at our site for possible roles? It's not just shop work with us. 😊

Hi @Queen_K - did you try looking at the link Albus gave?

https://www.scope.org.uk/volunteering

Queen_K

There is not any volunteer opportunities near me. I would really like to Volunteer with Scope as it will help me with my application that I am filling in for my new adapted vehicle.

Queen_K

Is it possible to speak to someone over the phone to discuss further with more options

Queen_K

So apparently there are no volunteer opportunities with Scope

WhatThe

It's great that you are looking for a suitable role as there are many benefits to volunteering and many other charities but your local council is probably your best bet for local opportunities and accessibility information.

Hey @Queen_K, I really appreciate your enthusiasm for volunteering. I'm sorry there are currently no volunteering positions at Scope available for you. However, new volunteering positions to get put up over time so please do keep an eye out for them. In the meantime I believe we sent you some resources in an email that might help you in finding a possible volunteering opportunity with another organisation until a Scope opportunity opens up?

Queen_K

Where do I keep an eye

Jimm_Alumni

You can find all volunteering opportunities at Scope on our site here: https://www.scope.org.uk/volunteering

Queen_K

@Jimm_Scope thank you I will keep an eye. Do you know how often Volunteer opportunities come up?

WhatThe

You're welcome.

Queen_K

Does anyone know where I can look for vovolunteering work?

your local council is probably your best bet for local opportunities and accessibility information.

Hi @Queen_K, there's quite a few websites you could try:

CharityJob - if you select Volunteer from the options it will show you the volunteering roles
Indeed - like with CharityJob, you might need to select 'volunteer' from the options when you search their website
I want to volunteer (NCVO)
Royal Voluntary Service
Your local council might have some ideas about organisations or local charities that would like volunteers
Individual Volunteering | HandsOn London

Sometimes volunteering roles come up at different times, so if you don't find anything right now it's worth checking every week or so to see if anything new has come up 😊

Queen_K

Thank you everyone
