Volunteers

There is no doubt, Stocksbridge Community Leisure Centre would not be where we are today without the overwhelming and continued support from the local community. Our volunteer army provide us with many hundreds of hours cleaning, repairing, fixing, painting, gardening, shifting furniture and equipment  to help keep the Centre operational.

Volunteering can be a very rewarding way of helping a worthy cause. Not only are you helping us, you can also meet new people, make new friends, socialise and develop new skills – or pass yours onto a younger generation!

 

Volunteers give up their time freely to help out in whatever way they can. Anyone over the age of 16 is welcomed to join our team of unpaid ambassadors. You don’t have to have a skill, just a commitment to what we are trying to achieve. A multi -purpose community run leisure centre on our doorstep. If you have a skill – even better.  If you have skills in administration, reception, supervision (general or sport related), accounting, roofing, plumbing, electrics, decorating, gardening, first aid, marketing or anything else you think we might find useful please think about volunteering.

You can volunteer a few hours or many hours – it’s up to you. It doesn’t matter how old you are, or if you have a disability. You can volunteer your time at weekends, during weekdays or in the evenings.

If you want to be involved in making Stocksbridge Community Leisure Centre a success, then call us on 0114 288 3792 email admin@stocksbridgeclc.co.uk for further details, complete the form at the bottom of this page or download the Volunteering Opportunities At SCLC Booklet 2021

Balancing volunteering and studying can be challenging, but a well-organized approach can make it manageable. One useful tool is the chatgpt essay writer, which helps streamline writing tasks and improve efficiency. Prioritize your schedule by setting clear goals for both volunteering and academics. Allocate specific time blocks for each activity, ensuring neither is neglected. Remember to maintain a healthy balance by taking breaks to recharge. With dedication and smart planning, you can successfully excel in both areas.

MEET THIS MONTH’S VOLUNTEER, TESSA!

I have been a volunteering at SCLC for over 10 years. After retiring from a job in school administration, I decided to become a volunteer. I was initially involved in covering reception and doing administration for the ‘Pathway to the Pool’ project, which was very successful. I also help at the Christmas and Easter Fayres which is an important part of fundraising.

My main role now is a volunteer on Reception, working alongside members of staff, which I thoroughly enjoy.

I find everyone who works and volunteers here, are very supportive and fully appreciative of the extra help. I am pleased that many of the employees are local residents, which is very fitting in a community based facility.

I look forward to continuing my role as a volunteer and would encourage anyone to join the SCLC volunteer team!

If you are interested in becoming one of our valued volunteers, we have lots of varied opportunities.  Just call at Reception or contact the Centre on 0114 2883792 to make an enquiry.
