Volunteer Expo will hold their annual national event for volunteers online this year, on Friday 7th May – Saturday 8th May. The free event aims to connect volunteers, organisations and the third sector to harness the power of volunteering.
Speakers this year will include broadcaster, TV presenter and adventurer Ben Fogle, Katie Thistleton (BBC Radio 1 presenter and author), Matt Hyde (Chief Executive of the Scouts), and heavyweight boxer and mental health campaigner Frank Bruno.

Some of the highlights of the event include:
- Virtual Exhibition: featuring third sector groups and charities, and other not-for-profit organisations
