Volunteering - whats good for meeting new people and having a good time?

[playdoughisnotfood]

In my 50s - like outdoors/active stuff. Have time to do some volunteering - a few hours a week - and thought it might also be a way to make some new friends/acquaintances.

Anyone done anything good?

Take a look at reachskills.org.uk which has all sorts of interesting opportunities. I chose to involve myself in charity admin. which is a lot more rewarding than it sounds, but when that comes to an end will probably looking at more events organiser type roles.

St John's ambulance sounds interesting... You get to attend interesting events.

Conservation volunteers is outdoors and friendly.
