Give it a Swirl - the national day of volunteering is a unique initiative that concentrates on hands-on involvement- giving volunteers an immediate sense of achievement.
For GIAS, we encourage organisations to create once-off volunteering opportunities that benefit them and the community – and which show that volunteering, even for a few short hours, can make a difference and be a lot of fun. If people want to get involved in volunteering on a more long-term basis as a result, we’re all in favour of that too!
However we also urge individuals – neighbours, colleagues and school friends – to come up with their own ideas of how they can Give it a Swirl! Give it a Swirl is about giving it a go! Maybe you’ve volunteered all your life, maybe you’ve never volunteered. Either way, why not get involved in the national day of volunteering and share the experience with your colleagues, friends and your community.
If you would like to know more about organising your own volunteer project check out our quick step by step guide or take a look at our Frequently Asked Questions to learn more.
Now you know what Give it a Swirl is about – get some inspiration from previous Give it a Swirl Projects, our list of 50 sample once-off projects or hear from organisations and individuals about their experience of Give it a Swirl.
