How to help your local community 1. Get involved as a volunteer

There are lots of volunteering opportunities out there. Look for things that appeal to you, things you have done before, things you are good at or things you’d like to try. It could even be the start of a new career path for you.

You could try:

  • Mentoring a young person
  • Being a school governor
  • Visiting someone in hospital
  • Working on conservation projects
  • Working on other community projects
  • Working in a charity shop

You can use this tool to find your local volunteer center or use Do-it’s volunteer search tools to find opportunities online. Reach is the place to find volunteering opportunities where you can leverage your professional skills.

If you would consider becoming a trustee of a charity – typically you’d have some professional finance, fundraising or IT experience – try the Trustee vacancy search tool. You can find out more about what being a trustee is all about here.

As well as benefits for the community, volunteering can be an excellent way to beat loneliness. Vicky experienced loneliness when she was 19 after being involved in a driving accident. Volunteering with the British Red Cross got her out of the house to help other people, which helped her a lot.

2. Support local businesses

Local businesses are an important part of local communities that are always under pressure from bigger national and multi-national competitors.

The best ways to support local businesses is to spend money with them, but there are other ways to help:

  • Tell your friends and family about your favorite local businesses.
  • Follow and support local businesses on social media.
  • Leave positive reviews.
3. Tidy up

Small things like litter picking and gardening can help to make your local area a nicer place to live for everyone.

Keep Britain Tidy help connect #LitterHeroes to organize cleanups in their communities, but there’s nothing to stop you organizing your own using real life contacts or social media.

If you spot bigger issues in your community - like graffiti, fly-tipping, fly-posting, potholes or abandoned cars – you can use Love Clean Streets to report it to your local authority and get it sorted out.

4. Help your neighbors

Charity starts at home, and community starts with everyone around you. Many people suffer financial, physical or psychological problems in silence.

Loneliness were identified by ex-Prime Minister Theresa May as “one of the greatest public health challenges of our time”. It’s estimated that up to a fifth of all UK adults feel lonely most or all of the time. It’s often linked to psychological problems, but it is also associated with a significantly higher risk of disease and mortality.

Take the time to get to know the people around you and see how you can help them. It could be planning a budget, doing the food shopping or just having a chat. You never know how much a little of your time can help someone in need.

5. Donate things

Helping the community doesn’t have to mean donating time or money, charities can benefit from your unwanted possessions.

Consider donating unwanted clothing, jewelry, media, books and Homeware to charity shops. The British Heart Foundation – who raise money to fund research into cures and treatments for heart and circulatory diseases – even offer to collect items like these for free.

Use of food banks is on the rise. The Trussel Trust, who operate a nationwide network of food banks, distributed a record 1.6 million emergency food parcels to people in crisis in the 2018/2019 financial year, a 19% increase on 2017/2018 and 73% increase over five years.

You can find your local food bank using this Trussel Trust tool. Consider hosting your own collection at school, church or a local business if you really want to make a difference.

6. Donate money

If you can spare some money local charities are always in need. When you give, make sure your money goes to the right place by:

  • Check fundraising materials for charity name, registered number and landline contact number.
  • Check the ID badge of any street collectors and ensure that tins or buckets are sealed and undamaged.
  • Check the charity is legitimate using the UK charity checker tool.

One Family customers (or members, as we like to call them) can nominate local community projects for funding. Find out more about the OneFamily Foundation and how we can help.

Helping the community is good for you and good for those around you. Whether you spend time on a community project, donate unwanted clothing or just a tidy up, giving something back can help you too.

I and my friends often take part in childrens program. This is a program which help orphans, street children, and mentally/physically disabled children in our town to have better life. We often visit them on sunday at house of gratitude. We give them presents such as fruit, candy, cakes, old clothes and so on. We teach them to learn about many things in life, tell them funny and meaningful stories,..etc ..so that they can fall in line with society without any complex. They're very happy and like us. I think it's really a useful activity. I as well as my friends contribute to making the world better.

I want to provide food, clothes and blankets for street children. I want to do it because I want to share the things I have with children who are in need. I hope no child will be hungry and cold. I will cook food and bring it to street children on the weekends. I will also encourage my friends to donate clothes and blankets to them.I feel very happy when I saw their smile.I'll try best to help they.

I have always wanted to change the world.

I remember being four years old, sitting glued to the television on Sunday mornings, not watching cartoons, but utterly captivated by World Vision. I cried about the injustices in the world, and begged my mother to let me sponsor Maria, the girl with the large, sad eyes who was around my age.

My mom patiently tried to explain to me that we couldn’t afford to send her money. I couldn’t understand, since we seemed to live in luxury compared to Maria.

Having been raised in a middle-class community of about 800 people in rural Newfoundland, I had never seen a stark divide between the rich and the poor. We all seemed to be the same to my four-year-old eyes.

My heart broke for Maria, and all of the other children on the show. I vowed to myself that someday, I was going to help people like her.

Throughout my childhood, I told everyone that I wanted to change the world. Many didn’t take me seriously. They’d say, “One person can’t change anything.”

Still, I knew I wanted to make a positive difference by helping people, animals, and the environment.

I started volunteering in elementary school, and became a vegetarian at the age of 13.

People asked, “Why bother? You know, that cow isn’t going to come back to life because you aren’t going to eat it.” And they very often said, “It won’t make a difference.”

3. What kind of traditional Vietnamese art do you like ?

4. Have you ever been to a water puppet show ?

-Yes, i have.

5. What do you know about water puppetry ?

- Water-stage used in puppetry art performances is a special thing of water puppetry art. The actions of puppets do not only depend on pole-and-string apparatus but also on the force of water as well as the system of rudders and floats in a “controlling machine” of the puppets.
