Mission
Our vision is to help make Wokingham Borough a better place to live by improving people’s
health, well-being and independence. We promise to do this whilst staying true to our
values.
Our mission is to provide the best service we can to those who need help and support in
Wokingham Borough. We will do this by delivering existing services and looking to enhance
and expand our services in line with identified needs and our areas of expertise.
Our purpose is to provide support for vulnerable and elderly people within Wokingham
Borough through the provision of volunteer led, low cost services to enable them to
continue to live in their own homes and to provide volunteer brokerage for residents,
voluntary and charitable organisations within the Borough

Additional Information
The Wokingham Volunteer Centre works with other charities and community groups in the Borough to help attract and recruit volunteers, from all walks of life and in support of all causes. We seek to promote the benefits of volunteering for the individual as well as the beneficiary; we aim to make volunteering accessible to anyone, whether time-limited, of any age, background or ability.
Our objective is to raise awareness and visibility of The Wokingham Volunteer Centre, to make it the go-to organisation for anyone wishing to volunteer in Wokingham Borough and to present ourselves as a modern and attractive brand. We also seek to attract volunteers for the projects we run that support older adults who are lonely and cannot get to vital medical appointments or manage to keep their gardens safe and tidy and have no one able to help them.
