Our volunteers are the heart of Ladybarn Community Hub. They are involved in such a broad range of tasks throughout the week. This might range from working on our garden to make it a relaxing and peaceful place or helping at our walking club to support members of our community to enjoy green spaces locally. Our volunteers also do an amazing job of helping at our popular lunch group for over 50s and LGBTQ+ coffee morning, ensuring that it is a warm and welcoming space.
If you would like to join our volunteer team, we can find a volunteer role and find the hours that suits you best.
Student volunteering
If you are a student, we also have opportunities for volunteering to help you participate and contribute to the community during your time in Manchester. We offer a welcoming environment and have volunteer roles to match various interests.
