Volunteering
We’re here to make volunteering easier and more accessible for everyone across Perth & Kinross.
Our goal is for local organisations to make the volunteering connections they need to help their communities thrive. We also want to ensure people are inspired, encouraged and motivated to volunteer across Perth & Kinross. That’s why we created Be the Change, a local volunteering platform that makes volunteering easier for everyone.
We also coordinate regular Volunteer Managers Forums to bring volunteer-involving organisations together to address the challenges organisations and volunteers face.
See below for the latest opportunities, events and news in the volunteering community.
