Come and chat with local organisations, find out how volunteering can get you to where you want to be, and discover life-changing opportunities right here in Wolverhampton.

Here's what volunteering really means — in the words of Diana, a Reading Coach with Read Easy Wolverhampton:

"It is extremely satisfying to hear him read sentences aloud. His confidence has soared, and he is being given harder work as an apprentice because of his improved reading."

This is the kind of transformation that happens when people volunteer.
Real stories.
Real impact.
Real lives changed.

Come and talk to local organisations face-to-face.
No appointment needed — just turn up!

“Volunteering as a reading coach is extremely satisfying. Seeing my Reader’s confidence soar and his skills improve has been truly transformative for both of us.”
— Diana, Reading Coach, Read Easy

One hour a week really can change two lives.

We’d love to see you at the WVCA Volunteer Day on Friday 5th!

“Becoming a reading coach has been a privilege.
I am so very proud of what my readers have achieved.
This experience has changed my life – I’ve grown in confidence while providing life-changing support to others.”
— Emma, Reading Coach, Read Easy

💙 Who will you help grow this week?

🌟 Volunteer Week has arrived! 🌟
This week we celebrate the power of volunteering and the amazing people who give their time to make a real difference in Wolverhampton.

Volunteering is about so much more than giving your time — it’s about rediscovering purpose, building genuine connections, and creating stronger, kinder communities. Every volunteer helps to change lives, boost confidence, and make our society more inclusive and supportive.

As Amrik beautifully puts it:
“Volunteering helped me find purpose again after having to retire for health reasons. It’s about building connections and community. And there is joy in seeing a Reader blossom and gain confidence through coaching.”
— Amrik, Coach, Read Easy Wolverhampton

One hour a week really can transform lives — both for the person you help and for yourself.
If you’ve been thinking about volunteering, this is the perfect week to take that first step!

Join us this Friday, the 5th, at the WVCA - Wolverhampton Voluntary & Community Action Volunteer Day and find out how you can get involved with Read Easy and other worthwhile causes across Wolverhampton.

💙 Who will you inspire this Volunteer Week?

📚 Help Us Spread the Joy of Reading! 📚

Reading changes lives — we’ve seen it firsthand, and now we want others to experience it too.

At Read Easy Wolverhampton, we’re sharing books across the community and stamping each one to spread awareness about adult reading support.

📖 Every book we leave behind is a chance for someone to begin their reading journey.

Some of these books have already brought years of joy, learning, and adventure — and now they’re ready to do the same for someone else.

How you can help:
✅ Donate books you no longer need
✅ Share this post to spread the word
✅ Pass on any Read Easy book if you find one

The more books we share, the more readers we create. ❤️

💬 Got books to donate? Get in touch with one of our team — we’d love to hear from you!
