Volunteering FAQs and Resources

Culture Leicestershire’s volunteers are amazing! If you’ve got a question about volunteering, why not ask them?

Why volunteer?

Do I have enough time to volunteer?

Will I receive training?

Volunteering inductions and training are tailored to enhance your experience and well-being. Relevant training is always available in the “Training” section of your profile on Assemble, our online Volunteer Management System. Your Volunteer Manager will inform you of the necessary training and provide alternatives should you need them. We pride ourselves on offering opportunities to spark your curiosity.

Are my expenses paid for?

Yes! We will find suitable and reasonable arrangements so that you are not out of pocket for your volunteering. We are committed towards reducing barriers to volunteering, so once you have started, you can discuss our Expenses Guidance with your Volunteer Manager, or access it at any point through Assemble, our online Volunteer Management System.
