RECRUITING THE NEXT WAVE OF VOLUNTEERS

The Volunteer Matching Service, which is run by Community Impact Bucks in partnership with Buckinghamshire Council and The Clare Foundation, matches registered volunteers to roles where they are most needed in the county.

In Spring 2020, more than 1,800 local residents signed up to volunteer via the Buckinghamshire Council’s website to support local communities during the height of the coronavirus pandemic, the recovery period and any local outbreaks that may arise. Since then, the Volunteer Matching Service has been placing volunteers with groups and organisations needing help to support our communities.

While many volunteers have stepped forward to help, a number have had a change in circumstances and are no longer available. We are now looking for more volunteers from across Buckinghamshire, and particularly in certain areas of the county to carry out a range of roles from short term or one-off tasks, to ongoing positions providing essential support.

As of Autumn 2020, we are particularly keen to receive volunteer registrations from the High Wycombe, Missendens and Chesham areas.
