Weekly Radio show on Unity 101

by

Every Tuesday afternoon at 3pm we host a half hour interview on radio station Unity101fm

We chat to local charitable organisations who work in our local area to provide help and support to our community. These groups are often run entirely by volunteers or rely on volunteers to operate. We use this opportunity to chat about their causes, the amazing work they do and their need for volunteers and support.

If you miss the live broadcast you can check out the podcast from 4pm on the day of the live broadcast.

If you are a charity or community group in the wider Eastleigh area, and would like to chat to us, please get in touch. Call Lisa-Jane Lydon on 023 8090 2400 or email ljlydon@1community.org.uk

Volunteer Drivers for Young Carers

Our young carers are a fabulous group of kids. Through our young carers project they meet other children living with someone who has difficulties.

We have a busy set of activities like a weekly choir, youth groups and holiday activities.

It would be really wonderful to have you come and drive our young carers to and from their activities. We pay a good mileage rate, all you need is a car and business rate insurances. We will take care of all of your checks so you are good to go!
