Vision Statement

A meeting of the volunteer coordinators forum

Volunteer Centre Tameside holds a vision of active communities in Tameside, supported through the development of volunteering activity to enhance local organisations and communities. We work in partnership with the public and corporate sectors to facilitate maximum opportunities for involvement of individuals, organisations, and communities in improving the quality of life for all Tameside residents.

How we can Help your Organisation

Do you struggle to find the "right" volunteers? Wonder if you are doing things the right way? Have so much work to do that you don't know whether you're coming or going? Want to find time to change things but unsure how? We can help! Working together with free 1-2-1 support from trained Volunteer Centre Tameside staff we can help you realise your potential and achieve more for yourself and your volunteering programme.
