Specialist skills volunteering

The Salvation Army has many small and medium-term projects and programmes that would benefit from people with specialist knowledge and skills to help take them forward.

We are looking for people who:

• have a number of employer-supported volunteering hours to use
• have newly acquired or long-established skills they’d like to offer

Whether you can offer us a couple of hours, days or weeks - on a one-off or ongoing basis – we’d love to hear from you. All our current opportunities will be promoted through this page.

Projects you could be involved with include:

• using social media skills to help one of our local services to publicise their events
• using HR recruitment skills to create and upload volunteer adverts for a recruitment campaign
• administrative skills to support a project
• foreign language skills to help with creating documents

Case Study

In April 2021, six MBA students from Imperial College London worked virtually with our International Department for 9 days in April 2021 to research and complete a business case to recommend ways to take handmade products made in Kenya and Bangladesh to new markets in the UK.
