Looking for a meaningful way to get involved in your community?

Join us this Volunteer Week!

Looking for a meaningful way to meet people, learn new skills or give back to your local community?

As part of national Volunteer Week, The Power House is opening its doors and inviting local people to discover how volunteering could make a difference, not just to Hamworthy, but to you too.

Volunteering can be a chance to feel more connected, build confidence, share your skills, try something new or simply spend time with friendly people in your community. Whether you have lots of time or just a little, there are many ways to get involved.

At The Power House, volunteers help make community life happen. From gardening and creative projects to welcoming visitors and supporting events, volunteers are at the heart of creating spaces where people feel connected, creative and supported.

Join us for our Volunteer Week Open House

Thursday 4 June
12pm – 4pm
The Power House Hub

Come along for a friendly chat, meet the team, have a look around and explore ways you could get involved.
