Volunteering helps me help others. I love giving back to the community and enjoying the friendships you make volunteering.

The Purfleet Trust have always relied on volunteers to help us to provide our services in across King’s Lynn and West Norfolk. We have been so proud of what we have been able to achieve over the past 30 years, and this is all down to the dedicated volunteers that have put their hard work and dedication into supporting vulnerable people in our community. At the heart of everything we do is our commitment to treating every person who comes to us with compassion, respect, and dignity. We believe that by providing a welcoming and supportive environment, we can help individuals to rebuild their lives and achieve their full potential.
Whether you can provide a few hours per week or a few days, we can use your help! We offer volunteering positions in a variety of roles, such as at our Health & Wellbeing Centre, on our delivery van, or sales roles at the Purfleet Pantry. Please look at our ‘Roles’ section or have a chat with us to see what you might best be suited for! We value all of our volunteers and we offer opportunities for growth within the Trust, such as training and new experiences.
Volunteering is a great way to learn new skills, access training, increase your professional and personal experience and grow your CV. Some people choose volunteering because they have spare time on their hands and want to use it in a worthwhile way, others see it as a way back into paid employment after a period of unemployment or time out for caring for children. Some of our volunteers have been with us for many years, while others have moved on into paid employment, having gained the experience and confidence they needed to make a successful application.
We want to make sure you’ve got all the resources you need to get the most out of your volunteering role.
