About Volunteer Recruitment Fair

This year the fair will be held on 1 October 2024 from 10:00 until 17:30 at St Paul's and St George's Church on York Place.

Scotland’s largest Volunteer Recruitment Fair is delivered annually by Volunteer Edinburgh, helping hundreds of people in their search for opportunities.
Designed for organisations and anyone interested in volunteering, our fair showcases the wide range of ways that people can get involved in volunteering with organisations big and small, local and national, who serve a diverse range of communities and causes all coming together with the common aim to attract new volunteers.

Volunteering helps people truly participate in their communities, build new skills, get a taste of different working environments, create new friendships and boost individual confidence and wellbeing. Or simply just feel good that they have done something that made a difference.

When visitors need to sit down after taking in all of this new information there is a friendly café provided by Space serving delicious food and drink.

If you’re considering volunteering, this is a fantastic opportunity to meet face to face with dozens of organisations from across Edinburgh that you can speak to directly and who are currently looking for volunteers or talk to experienced volunteer advisors on hand to help you to search hundreds of volunteering opportunities throughout the city, all under one roof. Read some of the reviews we have received from visitors and stallholders over the years.

Entry is free to the public (bookings for stallholders are charged and we have a number of payment options available), and more than a thousand potential volunteers are expected to visit and experience the diverse range of ways they can become involved.

Our last fair helped hundreds of people in their search for volunteering opportunities, connecting them with the organisations that needed their help. Make sure you’re one of them this year.
