• Develop the quality and quantity of youth volunteering opportunities with groups, organisations, clubs and through partnerships.
• Promote youth volunteering opportunities and advertise them through national databases and through the work of our local 'Youth Volunteer Advisors'.
• Provide information, training, guidance and support regarding volunteering and the involvement of young volunteers.

The vinvolved team for Leicestershire & Rutland is managed by 'Voluntary Action South Leicestershire' and supported by the 'LeicesterShire Volunteer Centres Network' and 'Leicester-Shire & Rutland Sport'.
