Advertise your roles on our Volunteer Hub

Start advertising your opportunities now on our Volunteer Hub, the key online platform for volunteering opportunities and roles searches in Sutton.

Launched in April 2025, our Volunteer Hub is the central place for promoting your volunteering roles. It now receives 3x more traffic than our previous platform (Simply Connect), with an average of 40-50 volunteer referrals per week.

How the Volunteer Hub Works:

  • Each role gets its own dedicated web page with a simple expression of interest form.
  • Volunteers don’t need to register—they simply browse, express interest, and we send their details to you.
  • You receive their name, email, phone number, and a short message—delivered directly to your inbox.
  • This means we can connect you with potential volunteers quickly and efficiently, with no unnecessary registration steps.

If you have not connected with Volunteer Centre Sutton before and/or are a brand new charity, community group or faith group, please fill in this short contact form and our Volunteering Officer, Jo Dawson, will be in touch shortly.

To submit a new role for our Volunteer Hub

All you need to do is complete this form with the details of your role. We'll review and then create your role page on our Volunteer Hub, and we'll send you a live link as soon as its ready. Depending on team capacity this usually takes around 5-7 working days. If you have any questions in the meantime, please don't hesitate to get in touch with Jo at jodawson@vcsutton.org.uk

If you need any help in creating a role description, from what to include to making it stand out, please get in touch with Jo. Jo has a marketing background and loves making words sparkle! Your volunteer role descriptions aren't just for advertising – they're your first line of defense in finding the right volunteers. By clearly outlining the tasks, skills and expectations, you can use these descriptions to ask the right questions during interviews, and assess whether someone is a good fit. 

Our focus is on promoting local volunteering opportunities in and around the London Borough of Sutton, and supporting Sutton-based charities, community and faith groups. If you are operating outside this area, your local Volunteer Centre will be happy to help. Find your nearest Volunteer Centre here.
