East Devon Volunteer Centre is a place where people of all ages and backgrounds can find out about voluntary opportunities in East Devon. We also give advice and guidance to voluntary and statutory organisations looking for volunteers.
East Devon Volunteer Centre works at a county (Volunteer Centres Devon), regional and national level (Volunteering England) and disseminates that information back at a local level through the Volunteer Organiser's Forum.
Our six key areas of volunteering work
