Volunteering

Strong communities are built on the foundation of volunteering.  

Are you looking for a way to make a meaningful impact on the world while enriching your own life?  

Volunteering is the key to unlocking a world of opportunities that benefit not only those you work alongside but also your own personal growth and fulfilment.   

At the heart of every community, volunteering is the cornerstone of positive change, driving social progress and nurturing the human spirit.  

There’s lots of reasons to get involved - from learning new skills, making new friends, to gaining accredited qualifications.  Our volunteering opportunities vary throughout the year - from planting seeds to picking crops, helping with digital skills or becoming a walk leader - there's something for you!

See our Volunteer roles available below ⬇️
You can apply for these roles using our online form

If you’d like to find out more about volunteering you can contact us by emailing thevinery@aberdeenfoyer.com

Together, we can create a better world, one act of kindness at a time.
