Become a Volunteer

We are dedicated to supporting volunteers

We would love as many residents as possible to give their time to help make a positive difference in our local community.  Whether it's an hour every now and then or a regular weekly commitment, we are here to help you to find the right volunteering opportunities.

Youth Volunteering

Are you looking to make new friends, start something new or gain experience for your future career? Merton Connected has a wide range of volunteer opportunities you might enjoy.

Under 18?
We work closely with local organisations to provide volunteering roles for under-18s. The best way to find these is to search our online database and use the advanced search option to include your age range.


A range of opportunities for young people is also available at https://vinspired.com/ and take a look at some inspirational stories by clicking the link below.

Rewards & Recognition

Merton Connected actively celebrate the hard work of volunteers through their volunteering stories, social media and the annual Merton Partnership Volunteer Awards.

We are also members of the ValueYou scheme, which seeks to thank volunteers by providing a discount card to volunteers who have given 100 hours or more offering discounts across a range of local shops and services including restaurants, healthy and beauty and florists. You can find out more about the scheme here
