Celebrating our volunteers: TCV Heroes

Written by / Region:

Join us as we celebrate all of our volunteers and community groups with video case studies to highlight their fantastic achievements across the UK.

We love to use this opportunity to showcase what volunteers can achieve: for their own health and well-being or learning and skills, and for their wider community and the environment.

Our TCV Heroes Award winners are celebrated locally by teams across the UK and on TCV’s national social media channels (Twitter | Facebook | Instagram | LinkedIn). Individual videos showcase the achievements of our winners, which we hope will inspire more people to join in, feel good with local volunteering opportunities.

Each day we’ll premier new videos on TCV’s YouTube channel at 12pm. Watch them all here!

All volunteers are heroes

At The Conservation Volunteers, we’re grateful for each person who comes out, rain or shine, to their local green space to help improve or maintain it.

We’re grateful for those who support others in their group, perhaps with practical tasks, to teach someone something new, or to just sit with a cup of tea and talk with each other to alleviate their anxiety.

Our volunteers feel connected to their community and want to see local people benefit from their conservation efforts. They care for the environment and know that their volunteering hours spent ultimately will benefit us all.

Want to join in?

Next time, we’ll celebrate another group of volunteers and employees for their hard work and achievements. How can you get involved?
