CSV Make a Difference Day

Every year tens of thousands of people get together to make a difference in their communities for CSV Make a Difference Day, the UK's biggest day of volunteering.

This year it takes place on Saturday 30 October 2010 - and you can be part of it!

Think big! Set up and register your own activity

Set up your own activity for the campaign and make a huge difference! You will be joining thousands of activity organisers - local heroes, families, groups of friends, schools, universities, charities, community groups, and companies who get together for the campaign.

If you're not sure what you could do, we provide some amazing free resources to help inspire you with ideas and advice on how to plan and carry out your activity.

This year the campaign is encouraging more families to volunteer together, so if you can make your activity family friendly please do so! We'll help you every step of the way with a wide range of fun resources, help and advice.

If you are a charity or community group, the campaign is a fantastic way to recruit new volunteers - people can find your activity on the website, get in touch and come along on the day! Over the past 14 years two thirds of those who volunteered for the first time on the day were still doing so six months later.

Simply volunteer!

Thousands of activities and projects up and down the country will be looking for you to volunteer!

There is something for everyone - all you need to do is get in touch with the organiser, turn up and get stuck in! It’s the perfect way to have fun, meet new people, and above all make a difference.
