Thornbury Volunteer Centre is the volunteer development agency serving Thornbury and the surrounding area. We aim to link volunteers with local organisations that need voluntary help.
We provide information, advice, training and support to both volunteers and organisations.
Get in touch if you’d like to talk to us, or drop in and see us at our base in Thornbury Town Hall.
We serve Thornbury and its surrounds, primarily the BS35 and BS32 postcodes of South Gloucestershire.
Our office is staffed on weekday mornings by a team of volunteer co-ordinators who work with our development co-ordinator, Lorna McCarthy. The Centre is a charity whose activities are overseen by a management committee. We are based in the Town Hall in Thornbury. Details of how to contact us are at the bottom of every page.
We promote good practice to organisations that use volunteers through our health check, our good practice guide and a support package of low-cost training. Through our activities, we increase awareness of the issues that affect volunteering.
We are a member of the Volunteer Centre Partnership South Gloucestershire, which also includes the centres in Yate, Kingswood and Patchway.
The Partnership works closely with CVS South Gloucestershire, the South Gloucestershire Council and other local organisations to inform strategic thinking and planning at a regional and national level. We participate in campaigns and represent local voices in issues affecting volunteering.
