Volunteer Fair 2024

Delivered by Wealden Volunteering, with support from Uckfield Town Council.

On Saturday, 12 October 2024, we are delighted to welcome back the Volunteer Fair, which for the first time will take place under Wealden Volunteering’s name.

After Uckfield Volunteer Centre rebranded early in 2024 as Wealden Volunteering, the scope of the organisation has grown, and they now support opportunities right across Wealden, including towns like Crowborough, Heathfield and Hailsham.

This makes the 2024 Volunteer Fair the most exciting event yet, as links have grown and many new businesses and organisations have come on board.

At the Fair, you will have the chance to meet charities and organisations who partner with Wealden Volunteering, hear about the roles and opportunities they have available, and discuss ideas and initiatives that work to benefit both you as the volunteer, and them as the organisation.

A wide range of charities and organisations will be present to promote themselves, and you may just be surprised about the range of volunteering options there are for people of all ages!

This is a brilliant event for networking, making connections, and hearing about the amazing positive stories that these local groups have, while possibly writing the start of your own.

More details are available on the Wealden Volunteering website here: https://wealdenvolunteering.org.uk/
