About Volunteer Centre Hackney

Making Hackney a place of understanding and mutual respect where the culture of volunteering has a positive impact. For almost 20 years our services have enabled over 11,000 people from all backgrounds to share their skills, knowledge and experience with their community. We also support over 400 local not-for-profit groups by giving them the skills they need to manage volunteers effectively. We are here to bring out the best in volunteering: for volunteers, for organisations, for the people being helped and for the borough of Hackney. Our services are specifically tailored to build the capacity of community organisations through good quality volunteer management, while ensuring local people receive the support they need to progress. Our aims are to improve employment outcomes, build social cohesion, boost mental wellbeing and reduce social isolation. Our model is to work in partnership with organisations and local people, facilitating the bridging of division across communities.
