The Lancashire Volunteer Partnership was established in 2016 between public services who wanted to provide one gateway into public service volunteering.
Our aim is to make volunteering for public services rewarding and to provide opportunities for people to make a real difference in their local communities.
By bringing these opportunities into one place and by working together we believe we can look after our volunteers better and allow them to use their skills for the benefit of all.
We are passionate about supporting people in need of help and building stronger, more resilient communities that can flourish; and at the heart of this are our volunteers.
From visiting people who may be feeling lonely or supporting those who are struggling to get out and about independently, to giving a carer some respite, volunteering alongside the neighbourhood policing teams as a Special Constable, at a children’s centre or as a cadet group leader; the LVP volunteers are truly amazing.
