Volunteering is at the heart of everything we do. As the Volunteer Hub for Basingstoke & Deane, we can help you find the answers to what, where, when and how to volunteer. We work 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 & Deane.
Find 100’s of local opportunities in Basingstoke & Deane, Hart and Rushmoor via our volunteering platform Volunteer North Hampshire. Register with Volunteer North Hampshire and help make a difference in your local community! It couldn’t be easier, create an account today and explore the wonderful local volunteering opportunities.
We hold face-to-face sessions at The Orchard to support individual people find meaningful volunteering opportunities. Volunteers will be able to meet our team, get advice, and use a computer in our building to register. It is an opportunity to discuss the kind of activities you enjoy, how often you would like to give your time so we can help connect you with the right volunteering opportunities.
The Volunteer Hub is open every Thursday & Friday 10am-2pm. Please book an appointment by emailing vc@bvaction.org.uk or by calling us on: 01256 423816.
Events & Workshops
Look out for upcoming events and workshops held by our local member charities and community groups here at the Hub. These sessions will be a variety of free workshops and drop-in sessions for members of the public to attend. The sessions will give a taster of the wonderful work they do and provide those thinking of volunteering an insight into the variety of volunteering opportunities out there.
Please be aware that some of the workshops will be limited spaces, therefore booking will be required. To see all BVA’s events click here.
