Find Volunteer Roles

Being a volunteer can help you to learn new things, build confidence, and connect in your community and with other people. It gives a sense of satisfaction and purpose, and there are a great range of roles to suit every individual.

We will help you find the perfect volunteering activity. We help people connect with each other and their local community.

Get Involved Coventry is an initiative of Voluntary Action Coventry – it’s an extensive database that helps you to easily find everything the voluntary sector in Coventry has to offer – from volunteering opportunities, to community events, and help, advice and support when you need it.

Our Community Directory contains all members of our Voluntary, Community and Social Enterprise (VCSE) Alliance. It’s a huge collection of voluntary sector organisations working to make a better Coventry for all who live in the city.

Are you looking for a Team Volunteering activity?

A group could be anything from 2 to 40+ volunteers, from teams of employees looking for a day or two days of volunteering or even a group of friends.

There are plenty of ways to have some fun whilst volunteering for a good cause.

Use our Get Involved Coventry platform to create a team profile and find your perfect group task.

Case study

VAC recently connected a team from Jaguar Landrover with Roz Hossein, Volunteer Coordinator at All Saints Church Allesley. The churchyard had gotten into a sadly neglected state, with the church’s committed team of older volunteers unable to tackle some of the tasks like they used to. With an important need for the space to be cared for and a restful place for relatives to visit the graves of their loved ones, we put Roz in touch with JLR’s small group of employee volunteers looking to make a difference. And what a difference! They tackled strimming, mowing, weeding and tidying and absolutely transformed the plot, to the delight and amazement of Roz:

“Thank you is not enough for hours of work they put in, getting it so much in order and so much tidier…it looks so much better, and I could not have asked for more or met such wonderful people.”
