With busy lives, it can be hard to find time to volunteer. But there are many ways to get involved. Volunteering isn’t just about committing to hours at The Mill, there are lots of opportunities to support us out and about in Walthamstow or from home.

Benefits of volunteering

There are lots benefits of volunteering to you, your family, and your community. The right role can help you to reduce stress, find friends, support local people, learn new skills, and even advance your career.

Volunteering doesn’t have to involve a long-term commitment or take a huge amount of time out of your busy day. Giving, in even simple ways, can make a big difference.

The Mill is a place where I fit in and feel valued and appreciated. A place where I can make new friends and encourage others to do the same. A place to learn what it means to be part of a community and a place I can go to when I need people around.
