Volunteer

Whether you want to develop your skills, make a difference or support a cause in your local community, we have a variety of opportunities to get involved.

Currently, we're looking for volunteers across Leicestershire, Rutland and North Northamptonshire (Corby) to support our fundraising team. (This is part of a pilot programme which we are hoping to expand to other areas soon. If you'd like to express an interest in volunteering in your area, please complete this short form and we'll contact you when opportunities are available.)

Find a role to suit you

From bucket collections and promotional activities to fundraising events and giving presentations, we have a variety of volunteer roles to choose from.


As a volunteer community fundraiser, you'll help us at supermarket bucket collections, run awareness/fundraising stalls at community events, help with our pop-up shops and have the opportunity to represent CCLG at cheque presentations and other events where we need a charity ambassador.

Collection boxes in local shops, cafes, bars and businesses are a simple and effective way of raising funds and awareness. Our volunteer collection box distributors/collectors look after a 'patch' in their local area.
