Volunteer for the Leisure Trust
Why Volunteer?
With busy lives, it can be hard to find time to volunteer. However, the benefits of volunteering can be enormous. Volunteering offers vital help to people in need, worthwhile causes, and the community, but the benefits can be even greater for you, the volunteer. The right match can help you to find friends, connect with the community, learn new skills, and even advance your career.
There are many ways you can volunteer for the leisure trust, see some of the descriptions below. Our vision is to make Rossendale a healthier happier place and we're looking for volunteers who share that sentiment and want to give back to the community through the services we deliver.
