Most of us play our part by looking after our little piece of Northumberland. Across the county there are also people willing to give up a bit more of their time to improve their local environment.
The work of these volunteers is invaluable and an important part of our campaign is providing support to these volunteers.
We’ve developed a web resource where groups can promote volunteering opportunities and people can find out how they can get involved in their local area.
You can pledge your support for the campaign here.
