Whatever your experience or amount of time you can give, there are opportunities for everyone. 

These opportunities include: 

Applicants must be aged 16 or over, with the exception of Summer Reading Challenge volunteers who must be aged 14 to 25. Successful applicants may be subject to a Disclosure and Barring Service check.
