GET INVOLVED / WHEATLEY HILL
Be part of something local. Share your time, bring your ideas and help Wheatley House continue to thrive.
Our charity grew from local people coming together to protect a place they valued. Today, we welcome everyone who wants to help our community feel connected, active and included.
01 / YOUR COMMUNITY
Whether you have time to spare, a skill to share or simply want to take part, there is room for different kinds of involvement in the life of Wheatley House.
We value people who are willing to help with community activities, assist with preparation and share their skills. You do not need a long list of qualifications to start a conversation with us. Tell us about your interests, experience and general availability.

People contribute in different ways. You might enjoy welcoming visitors, helping to prepare a social gathering, organising practical details or sharing experience with a local group.

Start a conversation →03 / WHERE YOU COULD CONTRIBUTE
Volunteering is not just one kind of task. These are examples of the ways support may help community activities run smoothly; they are not advertised vacancies.
Helping with preparation, practical arrangements and the friendly details that make social gatherings enjoyable.
Offering a warm and respectful welcome, particularly to visitors who are joining a community activity for the first time.
Sharing useful skills in planning, administration, communications and the coordination of suitable community initiatives.
Helping explore ways to bring people together, exchange knowledge and support appropriate activities.
04 / COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIPS
We welcome conversations with groups and organisations that share our interest in a connected and active community.
Wheatley House offers a place for local meetings, learning sessions and appropriate community activities. If you represent an organisation, training provider or community group, tell us what you are hoping to arrange and who it would benefit.
We also welcome residents who have ideas of their own. You do not need to represent an organisation to begin a conversation with us.
Discuss working together →05 / HELP SHAPE OUR FUTURE
Our story began when residents took action to safeguard Wheatley House. Continuing that work depends on people who care about the future of our community.
Our committee helps oversee the charity and guide its work. Committee involvement is different from helping at individual activities and carries responsibilities. If you would like to understand more about the organisation and the appropriate routes to contributing, please get in touch.
