Our Volunteers are passionate about Ipswich…
As a Community Interest Company (CIC), all of our services are supported by our valued volunteers. We simply could not do what we do without them.
Our volunteers help us to connect our town by:
- Researching events happening all across Ipswich
- Uploading event information to our website
- Growing our database of venues and event organisers that upload their own events
- Distributing information across our town
- Promoting ipswich.love as the event hub of choice in a number of ways
Our volunteers come from all walks of life:
Young people, old people, employed, unemployed, retired: Our volunteers get as much as they give:
- Retired people: get to use their experience, keep up to date, meet new people and learn new skills;
- Jobseekers and those between jobs: learn new skills, gain experience valuable for their CV, meet new people and choose their own hours;
- Mums/dads with children at school/college/university: learn new skills, meet new people, keep up to date, give something back;
- Students: Gain valuable experience to accompany their studies, learn new skills, meet new people;
- Full-time employed people: choose their own hours around their job, meet new people, learn new skills
Volunteering is flexible too – you decide how much time you can afford to give us each week or each month. After training and all appropriate checks, you will be added to our rota according to the days/times you can offer.
