Volunteers are the lifeblood of boccia, making an invaluable commitment and contribution to the sport across England. Without the network of dedicated volunteers that give up their time and energy, boccia simply wouldn’t happen. Volunteering is a rewarding experience, providing a fantastic opportunity to meet new people, travel to new locations (paid for), gain confidence, develop skills and, overall, have fun!
