Other Opportunities
We’ve teamed up with four charities for the first part of #1millionhours, but there are so many organisations out there that also offer volunteering opportunities – we want you to pledge your time wherever you feel it will be best spent.
These organisations may help you find an opportunity that’s right for you. And remember, wherever you sign up, let us know using #1millionhours, and tell us how many hours you’re pledging!
