HoT’s work supports the local community in many different ways…we provide what is probably the widest range of activities, groups and services across the Tamworth area.
We don’t have lots of staff. Instead, we rely on our wonderful volunteers to help us deliver services and run activities.
If you have some free time why not consider joining us as a volunteer? You’ll meet new people, maybe learn a new skill and also help your local community at the same time.
Studies show volunteering is actually good for us. A 2023 review of 28 projects looked at the impact of volunteering. It highlighted the positive impacts on individuals’ health and wellbeing. Not only do volunteers benefit from feeling they have something to contribute, they also know they are making their community stronger and more resilient.
Our volunteers get involved in all sorts of areas:
- Helping in the HoT Community Café and HoT Shops
- Supporting our social groups
- Running our reception area
- Working with young people
- Maintaining our community facilities including our new garden/growing area
