Youth Volunteering

If you're aged 16-25 and you want to make a difference then we want to hear from you.

Volunteer with CSV and you'll get the freedom to make your own choices and put your ideas into action. Volunteering as a young person with CSV isn't about us telling you what to do. It's about giving you the power to make things happen.

We're here to help you work out what needs to change in your local community and giving you the training, guidance and support to make that change. You'll meet new people, learn new skills, improve your CV and get a warm fuzzy feeling from knowing you made a big difference. Take a look at our opportunities map for ways to get involved near where you live.

Watch more videos of young CSV volunteers from across the UK starring in 'UK Youth Volunteers' a new season on the BBC Video Nation Network.

Meet CSV's Adam Blackwood, Jenny Edwards and Kirsty Abbot and hear their inspiring stories.
