Meet Your New Volunteers (August 2026)

We are introducing a new way of supporting people to find their ideal volunteering opportunity. Each month we will present various volunteer profiles – a little bit of information about people who are looking for roles, roles that your organisation might need to fill!

We know it’s not always simple to actively seek volunteers, even when you know there are things that you could do with some help on. By providing these profiles, we hope that you will see someone who might fill a need that you have, that perhaps you haven’t formalised or advertised.

If you see anyone here who you think it would be worthwhile you having a chat with, let Mark know and he can refer them on to you. Just email [email protected]. And if you are looking for a volunteer role and would like to have your own short profile featured next month, email Mark with a brief paragraph about yourself similar to the ones below.

Scott is a Morecambe-based professional with a strong background in finance and accounting. He is currently seeking new opportunities where he can apply his skill set to general office administration and reception duties. With his combined financial expertise and administrative focus, he aims to bring high efficiency and accuracy to a local team.

Edna is a Lancaster-based lady looking for some experience in data entry, document management, email handling, Microsoft Office tasks, and general administrative work, to boost her CV around business administration and IT skills. Edna is still learning a lot of this stuff but is enthusiastic and dedicated.

Hughie is a Lancaster-based gentleman with a background in art. He’s especially keen to get involved with painting murals or other community art projects, as well as activities of a spiritual nature. He also likes the idea of supporting people 1-to-1.

Claire is local to the Skerton area and is looking for opportunities that will help her to make new friends and build her confidence, so if you have something that fits, let us know!
