Volunteering Matters (Forth Valley)

Charity registered in Scotland SC039171

Volunteering Matters is a national volunteering and social change charity. We believe everyone in the UK should have the opportunity to thrive. So we bring people together to overcome some of society’s most complex issues through the power of volunteering. We partner with communities to overcome adversity, tackling social isolation and loneliness, improving health, developing skills and opportunity and making sure young people can lead change. In Forth Valley, our Retired and Senior Volunteer Programme (RSVP) encourages, supports and facilitiates the opportunity for older people aged 50+ to take part in local volunteering activities and groups. This includes our NHS hospitals and primary schools volunteering programmes, charitable knitting groups, our 4 x weekly walking group, and our Handyperson Service which supports older people and people with a disability.
