Our volunteers make a big difference to their local community.
They help with everything from running the charity and maintaining the facilities to organising activities and supporting the day-to-day operation of the community centre.
If you feel you might enjoy volunteering and would like to be involved with the community centre, please contact us for more information.
No two volunteers are the same, and everyone brings different skills and experience. Here are just some of the ways you could get involved:
Supporting community events and activities
Administration and finance
Serving as a Trustee
DIY and general building maintenance
Gardening and outdoor upkeep
Fundraising
Marketing and communications
Helping behind the scenes
Whatever your skills or experience, and whether you can spare a few hours occasionally or make a regular commitment, we'd love to hear from you.
Humphrey Park Community Association is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) which is registered with the Charity Commission for England & Wales (1170767). Our volunteers are a dedicated and friendly group who are responsible for the day-to-day running of the community centre and for providing activities that benefit the local community. Their hard work and dedication helps to ensure that things run as smoothly as possible.
The Trustees - They meet regularly and make decisions about the bookings, the charity in general, and the provision/upkeep of facilities. They are responsible to the Charity Commission and work in line with the association's Constitution. Anyone (including centre hirers, local residents etc) can apply to be a trustee.
Associate Members - If you hire rooms regularly (eg. on a weekly or monthly basis), coordinate activities for the benefit of the local community, or work/volunteer with a group at the centre, you will automatically be classed as an associate member of the CIO. We are not required to keep records of associate members. Unlike trustees, associate members don't have voting rights at meetings and don't have responsibility for maintenance of the building. However, the trustees do consult with all members on important issues that may affect them and do take their views into account.
