About Volunteering
Most of our activities are run by volunteers, who might join us because they want to:
- Try something new by learning to run an Activity
- Make friends
- Do something good for their community and themselves
- Keep their bodies and brains active and happy – whether that’s by Fixing or Cleaning the Campsite, sharing skills, or serving tea
All end up making a huge difference to young people’s lives – gifting them with skills for life, and learning a whole lot about themselves along the way.
Our regular volunteers get to become part of Frylands Wood, Tea’s and Coffee’s and not least your eventual award of a Frylands Wood Scarf to wear with pride, showing everyone you are part of what makes Frylands Wood such a special place.
