Impact Volunteer

Impact Volunteering is perfect for people who want to get involved but are short on time. Whether you’ve got five minutes or fifteen, you can help us create a better future for people living with diabetes. You’ll be supporting us by completing simple, meaningful tasks that fit easily into your day — like sharing a post, signing a petition, or spreading awareness. Every small action adds up to real change. No schedules. No commitments. Just opportunities to make a difference when it suits you. Whether you're on your lunch break, commuting, or scrolling through your phone — you can help. As you take part, you’ll unlock badges, certificates, and achievements to celebrate your impact and share with others.

What you will be doing

• Each month we will send you a few different tasks that you can choose to take part in, so this can be a varied role.

Disclaimer

Diabetes UK wants to make sure we have volunteers from all backgrounds to help us get to a future where diabetes can do no harm. We are committed to ensuring that our volunteer recruitment is fair, safe, and consistent. The recruitment and selection process must therefore be appropriate to the nature of the role. Some roles may require a more in-depth selection process, for example, those working with children or vulnerable adults. Your volunteering contact will be able to explain more about this.

What skills do I need?

• You need to have access to a smart phone or tablet/laptop/computer.
• You’ll need to be 16 or over. If you’re under 18 we’ll need the consent of your parent or guardian before you can start.
