Helping others

 If you would like to offer help to people, here are some ways that you can get involved in supporting your community.

Volunteer

Staffordshire County Council and Support Staffordshire have worked together to create a digital solution, to improve your volunteering experience.

We have joined forces with the popular ‘Do It’, volunteering platform to create a Staffordshire only area of the website.

Visit the Do It Staffordshire website.

Donate food and essentials

Local supermarkets often have collection points that you can drop off items to go to local food banks. See in stores for details.

Food banks will each have their own donation systems and a list of the items they need most. 

Find local food banks on our Staffordshire Connects Directory pages.

Donate I.T. equipment

We've partnered with the Community Foundation for Staffordshire to help children, older people and people with a disability get online.

If you've got a laptop or tablet you no longer need, you can drop it at one of sixteen donation points in libraries across Staffordshire. Devices are refurbished and then used to help people in our communities who need it most.
