Charities

If you have a skill that you can offer a charity, then you will be putting your abilities to good use. Find a list of charities that need both volunteers and full-time staff.

Home-Start Colchester is an independent local charity dedicated to making a real difference to children and their parents, delivering a vital community grass roots home-visiting mentor service. A service built on postive relationships, a service without doors.

We are a local, independent charity connected to the national charity Mind. There are 140 local Minds across England and Wales. We all have to raise our own money to run our services. We each have our own board of trustees who are responsible for how we are run. Mid and North Essex Mind work from Chelmsford to Clacton, from Braintree to Colchester – we cover all of mid and north east Essex.

Colchester Mind offers volunteer positions and paid positions.

They offer training in mental health awareness.  

The Colchester League of Hospital Friends is a charitable organisation that works with Colchester hospitals to provide additional equipment to benefit patients. The most visible work of the League is their Shops, Guiding Service, Ward Shop Trolleys, Ward Newspaper and Library rounds in Colchester General Hospital, and the tea bar at Essex County Hospital and cafe at the Primary Care Centre in Colchester. Along with paid staff, these outlets and services are manned by the many volunteers who willingly give of their time.

We are a one-stop shop for all matters related to the environment, providing a focal point for the gathering and exchange of information on one of the most important issues of the day; the environment.

We are well known for supporting Colchester and Wivenhoe Farmers Markets, as well as RePaint Essex, a paint recycling scheme, and ReUse Essex, a great way to reuse rather than reject unwanted goods. Green Open Days are also high on our agenda, along with a lot of other great projects aimed at helping inform, educate and assist those looking to choose a greener path.
