In 2024, The Big Help Out will return and align with Volunteers’ Week from Friday 7th to Sunday 9th June. The Big Help Out is open to all, and any organisation or individual can join in with or register an event via the Big Help Out Platform that is available on web browser and as a downloadable mobile app.

The objective of The Big Help Out is to raise awareness of volunteering throughout the UK and provide opportunities for people to experience volunteering and make a difference in their communities. This is not a profit making or fundraising initiative.

Just like last year, there will be volunteering opportunities to suit helping hands of all shapes and sizes,
and a chance for volunteer-involving organisations of every kind to lend a hand.

Once you have downloaded the app and registered for an opportunity, use The Big Help Out AR Filter to encourage your family, friends and followers to join the biggest mass volunteering event of the year! Spread the word by taking a picture of yourself with our AR Filter and give a shout-out to the organisations you’re supporting through your social media stories.
