Residents looking to make a difference in their community are invited to discover exciting volunteering opportunities at Fylde’s Volunteer Fair this November, where local charities and community groups will showcase the fantastic work happening right across the borough.
Taking place on Thursday 20 November from 1pm to 4pm at the Well Community Centre in St Annes (St Albans Road, FY8 1UZ), the free event offers the perfect chance for anyone wanting to give their time to meet organisations seeking enthusiastic new volunteers. Whether you have a few hours a week or can commit to regular support, there will be groups looking for people with all kinds of skills and availability.
The fair also presents a wonderful opportunity for local charities and community groups to promote their valuable work and attract the volunteers they need to continue delivering vital services. Organisations interested in hosting a stall should email victoria.clegg@fylde.gov.uk to express their interest.
Councillor Chris Dixon, Lead Member for Social Wellbeing, said: “Our community is strengthened by the incredible dedication of volunteers who give their time to help others. This fair celebrates that spirit of generosity whilst connecting people who want to contribute with the organisations who need their support. It’s a chance to discover just how much amazing work happens across Fylde and find your perfect volunteering role.”
With plans to hold further volunteer fairs in different locations across the borough, the Council is committed to making it easier for residents to get involved in their local community and support causes close to their hearts.
