Too many young people, particularly those facing disadvantage, grow up disconnected from their communities and without opportunities to contribute in meaningful ways. Poor mental wellbeing, low confidence and school disengagement continue to rise, while local charities face growing demand during the cost-of-living crisis. Despite the benefits of volunteering, opportunities for young people remain extremely limited. TimeGivers exists to bridge this gap before disengagement becomes long-term.

TimeGivers partners with schools, charities and councils to bring meaningful volunteering directly to young people aged 4-18. Through Giving Back Clubs, community projects, school trips and holiday programmes, young people visit and support food banks, care homes, community gardens and other local organisations. Every activity builds confidence, teamwork and purpose while providing practical help to communities facing increasing need.
