TSL Kirklees Volunteering is the official Volunteer Centre for Kirklees

This means that we’re here to help you get started on your volunteering journey and support you through the process.

We also make sure that any groups or charities that advertise for volunteers on our website will look after their volunteers properly.  Some of them will have a stamp of approval called the Kirklees Volunteering Quality Award (KVQA), which means that they’ve done even more to make sure that their volunteers are valued and have a good experience.

About the Organisation
Epilepsy Action is a prominent UK-based charity founded in 1950 that dedicated to improving the lives of everyone affected by epilepsy. We provide vital services, including free helplines, local support networks, and expert advice to help individuals navigate the challenges of living with the condition. Beyond direct support, Epilepsy Action actively campaigns for better healthcare services, drives public awareness initiatives like Purple Day, and fights for fairer laws regarding driving, employment, and disability rights. Their ultimate goal is to break down social barriers and ensure that the roughly 1 in 100 people living with epilepsy in the UK can live a life without limits.
Role Description

Could you spread awareness of our services to your local community? Are you a people person and are passionate about helping others? Do you have a few hours to spare each month to support and champion Epilepsy Action in your local area?

This is the role for you!

Our Community Champions are at the heart of helping us to create a world without limits for people with epilepsy. They offer support and visibility at a local level, from awareness raising to making building connections in your community and will help us achieve these goals.

The Community Champion Volunteers in West Yorkshire have three main roles:

  • Help raise awareness about Epilepsy Action’s work to make a difference for people living with epilepsy
  • To actively engage and build networks and connections with local groups and associations in West Yorkshire.
  • To encourage and inspire people within your local community to get involved with work that Epilepsy Action does including fundraising activities.

There will be flexibility, so you can decide how you want to support and champion Epilepsy Action, to really make a difference at the heart of your community.

Over time as we grow our Community Champion network there will be more opportunities to get involved and encourage others to organise a wider variety of activities in your community. We'd love to hear your ideas too so please share them with us!

You'll be joining our vibrant volunteer community and will be fully supported by our dedicated volunteer team.
