Volunteering in Sport

Sports Volunteering in England accounts for 26% of total adult volunteering with over one billion hours contributed to sport each year! Without volunteers sport would not be sustainable!  With the successful 2012 London Olympic bid even more quality volunteers are going to be needed for the event and in communities where people are inspired to take up sport and physical activity.

GreaterSport's V funded Young Volunteer Programme finished on 31st March 2008. 

There is a new network of v teams working across Greater Manchester that will offer accreditation and support for young people aged 16-25 through the v programme.  For more information on v click on www.vinspired.com
