Danum Volunteers Project

The Danum Volunteers project helps those experiencing chronic loneliness in Doncaster through volunteering. Our team have created flexible volunteer positions that will aim to reduce isolation, giving participants an opportunity to experience something different, develop skills and improve their confidence.

You can find out more about our Danum Community Garden volunteers here.

These volunteer opportunities are open to everyone, but we are especially interested in hearing from people who are experiencing loneliness and/or are not currently employed. Volunteering opportunities are available to people aged 16+. School work placements may be able to be accommodated. 

We are currently recruiting for the below roles:
