Getting the right people volunteering for your organisation can be the key to getting the right skills and experience on board and making your organisation run more smoothly. There are lots of reasons why people volunteer and they are often very willing to help. Examples include to gain new skills, meet new people and have fun, share their expertise or to make a real difference to their community.
Our Basingstoke Volunteer Centre works with local voluntary, community and charitable organisations that are in need of volunteers in order to fulfil their mission and help the people and communities in Basingstoke and Deane.
Volunteer North Hampshire is our dedicated website advertising volunteering opportunities across North Hampshire, which covers Basingstoke & Deane, Hart and Rushmoor districts. If your organisation needs support in recruiting volunteers, we can help you do this via our platform. Your volunteering opportunities will be made available to the community to help you recruit the volunteers you need.
In order for us to advertise your volunteering opportunities, you will first need to complete the forms found below.

"BVA have been a great help and support in sourcing volunteers for St. Michael’s Hospice (North Hampshire), we are always looking for retail volunteers especially in all our shops, online sales, and Donation centre, Fundraising and Hospice volunteers. With the BVA team’s help we can continue to operate with a dedicated team of volunteers, many of our volunteers coming from a BVA initial contact."

"Julian House were holding the Big Basingstoke Sleepout fundraising event in February. Unfortunately we had a couple of volunteers who were essential for the smooth running of the event drop out with just a few days to go because of Covid. Despite the short notice BVA were more than happy to help and were able to recruit us a fantastic volunteer. It really helped us out and we’re very grateful."
