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.

What is Girlguiding?
Through fun, friendship, challenge and adventure we empower girls to find their voice, inspiring them to discover the best in themselves and to make a positive difference in their community. At the heart of guiding are the unit meetings that the girls go along to regularly.
Volunteer with girls at unit meetings
You don’t need to have been involved in guiding before or have loads of time to make a big difference. Whatever your skills and interests, you can get involved. Volunteering at unit meetings means getting stuck in, meeting new people and running activities that help girls know they can do anything. You’ll volunteer directly with young people and can choose to work with girls of different age groups between 5 and 18 years in Rainbows, Brownies, Guides & Rangers. Unit meetings are usually once a week for around an hour.
What does it involve?
You’ll work alongside other volunteers to help run the unit, be part of a team of volunteers, and help to plan and deliver a programme of awesome activities
How do I get involved?
We’re so glad you’re thinking of joining us.
Thanks to you, we’ll be able to help even more girls know they can do anything. And we hope that you enjoy everything guiding has to offer too.
To keep our members safe, anyone over 18 who wants to volunteer for Girlguiding must complete the recruitment and vetting process (DBS) paid for by Girlguiding.
As well as these checks, you’ll need to complete some training designed to help keep our members safe (called safe space). This is carried out through a learning platform.
