Summer break

Hannah Cunningham from Volunteer Marlborough

Reminder: The Volunteer Marlborough office will be closed from 2pm today until 10am on Monday 18th January. ⁠

During this time, our website and online services will be available. However, since many of the organisations we are connected with will be closed or working reduced hours, most applications for volunteering opportunities will not be processed until the 11th or later.⁠

We would like to wish everyone a merry Christmas, happy Hanukkah, and a joyful Bodhi Day, Pancha Ganapati, Kwanzaa, and New Year!⁠


As always, you can get full info on all available roles and apply online by clicking the 'read more' button below.
