Community Groups and Volunteering

Downham Market has a vibrant collection of community groups and local organisations.
Volunteering is an engaging and rewarding way to help out the community with something that you enjoy as either a hobby or an interest.
There are many community groups and charities around Downham Market and West Norfolk who rely on volunteers occasionally (e.g over summer) or on a regular basis. We have collated some of the groups with vacancies here:
Volunteering can help you to develop new skills or put your interests and hobbies to good use within the community. Showcasing volunteer experience on your CV can help give you a competitive edge when looking for a job, particularly for young people who might not have as much employment history. It’s rewarding and good for your mental health.
If you are a community group or charity and would like us to publicise a volunteering opportunity, please get in touch via our contact page.
