Diabetes UK volunteering activities

Volunteering can make a difference in your life too - meeting new people, learning new skills and having fun.

A good place to start is with local voluntary groups or other activities in your area.

Help us raise awareness, campaign for people's rights or improve diabetes services.

You could volunteer on one of our support holidays for children or families.

We support our volunteers through training, newsletters and an annual conference.

Next month sees Volunteering Week (1 to 7 June) followed by our annual Diabetes Week (10 to 16 June), so it's the perfect time to get involved.
