Community centres and volunteering
Hire a room or have a go at family-friendly activities at one of Carlisle's community centres. Or why not give up some of your spare time and volunteer?
Community centres are friendly welcoming places at the heart of community life.
They provide opportunities to try out new activities, learn new skills, meet people and make friends.
For details about what is available at centres across the Carlisle area, visit the Community and volunteering page.
Why volunteer?
People volunteer for a variety of reasons and volunteering can benefit them and their community.
Volunteering allows you to spend quality time away from work or a busy lifestyle, make a difference to the lives of others or help the environment.
It can also be a way into employment, or a chance to try something new which may lead to a career change.
