Community volunteering

Our volunteers help to look after our communities in a number of ways, by helping to improve our neighbourhoods and supporting the people who live in them. We wouldn't be able to do this without the great work of our volunteers.

Volunteering at Red Kite Community Housing

At Red Kite, our volunteers play a vital role in everything we do.
We simply couldn’t achieve as much as we do without the time, skills and dedication they bring.

Our volunteers get involved in lots of different ways. Some sit on our Board or Resident Representative Team, others help us procure new contracts, and some support recruitment by sitting on interview panels for new staff.

There really is something for everyone, no matter how much time you can offer.
Volunteering is a great way to help shape the services you receive, meet new people, learn new skills, share your own experience, and be part of a supportive team that strengthens our community.

And most importantly, it’s a chance to make a real difference — and feel good about it too.

Here’s what some of our current volunteers have to say.

Maureen says:
“I want to give something back to Red Kite, whose home I’m living in.”

Maria tells us:
“I hope that more tenants join us and see how amazing it is to volunteer.”

And David says:
“Volunteering is a win‑win situation. We get the satisfaction of contributing, and Red Kite benefits from our effort and experience.”
