Labour believes in a strong and active society and values the contribution that people make to local communities.

Labour has invested heavily in volunteering opportunities because we see how it empowers, involves and makes a real difference to people’s lives.

A new Labour government-backed global volunteering programme has been launched for 18 – 25 year olds enabling an initial 2,500 more young people to see the world and help to make it a better place. What do you think?
