Volunteer service
We provide information and support for voluntary and community organisations who involve volunteers. We also run the volunteering website, Spark a Change, inspiring people to get involved and make a difference in their communities.
Does your organisation involve volunteers?
- Policies and procedures
- Volunteer management, recruitment and retention
- Promoting your volunteering opportunities
- Trustee recruitment
- Employer supported volunteering

Contact the volunteer team to find out how we can support you.
The collaborative and partnership opportunities provided by Spark Somerset are invaluable, particularly amidst rising demand for voluntary sector services and more challenging commissioning prospects.

Volunteer Coordinator Forums
We hold regular, friendly and informal meetings where Volunteer Coordinators can network, share information and peer support, explore best practice, and look at opportunities for development and training.
Recruiting volunteers?
Voluntary and community organisations can use Spark a Change to connect with a community of enthusiastic volunteers.
A huge thanks to Spark a Change for helping us recruit many wonderful volunteers, enabling us to keep our project beneficiaries safe, and our sessions engaging and vibrant.
