New look for the Volunteer Centre

We’re excited to share that our Volunteer Centre has a fresh new look! For many years, we used the familiar orange and blue logo that was standard across accredited Volunteer Centres. As this is no longer a requirement, we’ve taken the opportunity to refresh our visual identity.

Our new logo is based on the Community Action branding, bringing us in line with our wider organisational identity and creating a more consistent and recognisable look across all our services. While our appearance may have changed, our commitment to supporting volunteers and volunteer-involving organisations remains exactly the same. We hope you like the new look!
