Volunteer work

Hi I have a 30 yr old brother who has ADHD and mild autism he still lives at home with our mum he’s on medication for depression and I’m looking for ways to get him out of the house and possibly some volunteer work? When he was younger he had someone who came and took him out and did volunteer work on a farm which he really enjoyed but there doesn’t seem to be any help for him now he’s older. My mum said she’s been to a local advise centre to ask but they told her there’s nothing to offer which I think is a bit strange? Does anyone know of an organisation or charity that can help? Thanks in advance x
