Volunteering

Harrow Volunteer Centre managed by Sarah Kersey has gained the Investing in Volunteers Award (IiV).  This accreditation primarily examines how the centre treats its own volunteers.  Given that the Harrow Volunteer Centre deals with nearly 1000 volunteers each year, this is obviously important as we need to be able to show good practice in our own organisation.

Congratulations to Sarah and her team for this award !

The Volunteer Centre Harrow has also been officially recognised as having undertaken the relevant training to be able to work in partnership with Volunteering Development England. Sarah can establish a relationship with registering organisations and provide them with a level of service, free of charge, which will support them to achieve their Investing in Volunteers award.

Harrow Volunteer Centre operates as a placement agency for adults and young people living and working in Harrow who wish to undertake voluntary work. Its aims are to:

  • provide opportunities for volunteering and promote the value of volunteers to key partners.
  • deliver training for potential volunteers, volunteer managers and for the volunteering infrastructure.
  • offer opportunities to all sections of the community. We can advise you if you are interested in either becoming a volunteer or if your group needs volunteers.

Opening times: Monday to Friday 8.30 a.m. to 4.30 p.m. We do not operate a drop in service please email or call for an appointment.
