V Volunteering

What is V Volunteering?

V is a charity that has been set up to inspire a new generation of young volunteers. They are aiming to involve at least 1 million more 16 – 25 year olds in volunteering and community action. So what does that mean? It means more young people on community radio, more young people improving the environment, more young people running sports clubs, more young people taking part in international projects – basically more young people giving their time and talents to improve their communities.
