The Big Help Out, 7-9 June 2024
This year The Big Help Out will take place over the weekend 7th – 9th June, and more people than ever will be lending a hand!
They will be launching an app in April where everyone can get involved. For now please save the date and help us spread the word by pledging to take part and sharing on social media with a handy partner pack.
Over 7 million said people are more likely to volunteer as a result of seeing The Big Help Out in action!
73% of volunteers say that getting involved gives them more confidence, according to research by the NCVO.
The Big Help Out is not for one day only. The handy platform will help people lend a hand all year round. There is an opportunity for everyone!
Also check out #volunteersweek on 3rd to 9th June and #thankyouday on Sunday 7th July for opportunities to come together as communities.
