Millenium Volunteers

Millennium Volunteers (MV) is a national scheme funded by the Government to encourage 16-24 year olds to get involved in volunteering.

It gives young people the chance to turn their own interests, beliefs and aspirations into voluntary activity.

Locally, the project is managed by Connexions Black Country.

Below is a list of local Millennium Volunteers projects. You can contact them directly, or if you'd like more information about MV, e-mail the Voluntary and Community Sector Team or call them on 0121 502 7424.
