Did you know that over 40% of adults in the Highlands Volunteer?
 
With our busy lives it can be hard to find time to volunteer. However, the benefits of volunteering are enormous to you, your family, and your community. Finding the right opportunity can help reduce stress, make new friends, improve your local community, learn new skills, and even improve your career. Giving to others can also help improve your mental and physical health.
