It's a great opportunity to get to know your local community a little better.
Can you help out?
The Big Help Out is being organised in tribute to the Coronation weekend on Monday 8 May, highlighting the positive impact that volunteering has on our communities.
In Southend-on-Sea, there are a number of volunteering opportunities available that you can get involved in all year round. You can also volunteer in our libraries - there are roles including self-service volunteers where you would support customers with basic enquiries and using the self-service kiosks.
