Volunteering
Become an Active Citizen …
As a founding partner of Devon Voluntary Action, West Devon CVS offers a combination of self-search, email and telephone volunteering advice, tailored to suit your needs, through our Volunteer Support Service. We have advisers who can help people wanting to volunteer and organisations offering voluntary roles to find one another.
Using our dedicated system, Volunteer Connect Devon, you can search through all the roles currently available.
This service is totally free for volunteers and non-profit organisations, and there are a wide range of different volunteer roles you can apply for.
Registering with the service online allows you to:
- Search and apply for volunteer roles
- Manage your profile
- Join our volunteer bank, allowing organisations to invite you to apply for roles with which you have been “matched”
