The Volunteer Centre West Berkshire matches volunteers with local need, as well as providing Handybus, voluntary car and Shopmobility schemes, and general advice and bespoke support for local voluntary and charity groups.
Set up in 1974 to support local communities and charities, primarily in West Berkshire, we became a Charitable Incorporated Organisation in 2014 and are now celebrating our 50th year.
Income in 2023 was £270k, matched by almost-similar spending as in most previous years, so we’re not a large organisation, with our finances managed day-to-day by our Finance Officer and CEO.
The Centre would like about four hours of your time per month, more at Year End and AGM times, plus quarterly online Board meetings.

Led by a growing group of Londoners and iInspired by Doughnut Economics, we have come together to communicate a better vision for London’s economy, one that is inherently fair, green and also exciting!
We argue that as one of the most influential and important cities in the world, London needs to be a leader in adopting better, fairer, and regenerative approaches to its economy.
We believe that every person in London should be entitled to a minimum standard of living (social foundation) and that the city needs to operate within defined environmental limits (ecological ceiling).
We have recently become a Community Interest Company and secured our first stream of funding to develop some interesting projects in the Capital. We’re looking for someone with financial nouse to help us with our accounting. Ideally you’d be happy to take on the role as treasurer and join the board, but even some initial advice and support would be welcome.
