Volunteering in local sport has the power to create healthier, happier people and stronger communities
Join In is the nation’s charity for local sports volunteering.
How we (all) win
Our research shows that volunteering in sport is good for all of us:
You
People who volunteer in sport “win” – as sharing our time (and experience) makes us happier, gives us more self-esteem, sense of purpose and helps us learn new skills and make friendships.
Clubs
Local sport wins. Almost all grassroots clubs and activity groups rely on volunteers, and 7 out of 10 currently need more people to help out. Each new volunteer makes a huge difference – typically giving a club the capacity to welcome 8.5 more members.
Everyone
Our communities win by enabling people to find ways to play sport and live more active, healthier lives. Volunteers also care about their local areas – they are more likely to feel pride, invest their time, and build trust in communities.
