Link UP London - Link UP Borough Research

Help Link UP London reach and support more organisations across London.

What You'll Do: 

We are looking for Skilled Volunteers to support us with our research on different boroughs of London. We are currently developing a spreadsheet of all London boroughs, with a detailed analysis of the Community & Voluntary sector within each one. We would like you to help us complete this spreadsheet by committing to researching and presenting your findings for at least one allocated borough of London. This information will help us to reach and support more organisations doing important work across the city. We will provide a set of detailed instructions on how to complete this research and are available to support and answer any questions along the way. 

Why You'll Love It: 

We feel this is an excellent opportunity to develop your research, presentation and independent working skills, as well as the chance to support a community organisation making a difference!

 

Link UP London harnesses professional skills for social good.  We connect people with professional skills to local Social Good Organisations (these include Charities, Social Enterprises, and Community Groups) on short-term, structured, meaningful Skilled Volunteering opportunities aimed to help the organisations do their work better and have a greater impact.

What You'll Learn: 

- How London's Vibrant Voluntary & Community Sector works.

- Communication skills.

- Research skills.

- Presentation skills.

What We're Looking For: 

We are looking for a Skilled Volunteer with research experience.
