Volunteers’ Week 2026
Volunteers’ Week takes place from 1st to 7th June, and Causeway Volunteer Centre, in partnership with Causeway Coast and Glens Borough Council and Limavady Volunteer Centre, will mark the occasion with a series of celebratory events recognising the outstanding contribution volunteers make to communities across Causeway Coast and Glens.
This year carries added significance, as the United Nations has designated 2026 as the Year of Volunteers for Sustainable Development, highlighting the global importance of volunteering in building stronger, more resilient societies.
