Volunteer Centre for East Sussex – promoting, supporting and developing volunteering across the county. Volunteering around Christmas and New Year is always popular.

We are likely to receive requests from keen volunteers offering their free time. If you have any new or old volunteer opportunities taking place around Christmas and New Year, please email and we will advertise them for you. Here are our five top tips for groups looking to involve volunteers over Christmas; Be clear about when you’re open and when you need someone – transport can be limited over the holidays and people will be making an effort to get to you. It’s probably best to try and offer roles that involve being with people – most people volunteering over Christmas are looking for connection with others.

Wherever possible, try not to leave anyone ‘out of pocket’ – think about reimbursing everyone’s expenses. Think through if involving volunteers in a role over Christmas will be appropriate – if it’s a role requiring a DBS check for example, there may not be time to do that.

Are there ways you could recognise people’s contribution – a Christmas party for instance? And here are top five tips for individuals looking to involve volunteers over Christmas; Avoid ‘over-stretching’ yourself – it’s wonderful to want to reach out to others at Christmas, but doing too much could leave you exhausted and even, unwell. Don’t be embarrassed about reclaiming your expenses – money can feel particularly tight at this time of year. Plan ahead – waiting until Christmas Eve to try and organise something, may mean doing something far from what you really want, or ending up with nothing Get as good a picture as possible as to what you might be doing and be prepared to be flexible – serving hot soup to people who need it is a popular image, there are though many other equally valuable things to do. ‘Volunteering’s not just for Christmas’?! – this could be a great way to see if you want to get into helping out regularly and if you want to keep it to a one-off, once a year experience, well that’s great too! Whatever you dowe hope it’s a wonderful experience.
