Volunteer in Somerset

Spark a Change is passionate about everything volunteering. The organisations we work with understand that many people have busy lives and it can be hard to find time to volunteer. However, we also know the benefits of volunteering can be huge to both the individual and the organisation. 


Volunteering can help you meet new people, connect you with your local community, gain new skills or enhance your career, improve your mental and physical well being and offers the chance to give something back. 


Volunteering is something everyone can do at different stages of their lives and can be in person or virtual, regular or casual, indoor or outdoor. Whatever your motives, Spark a Change is the simplest way to discover your ideal volunteering opportunity in Somerset.
