Making it 'aDoddle' to find local charities, community groups and organisations

Whether you are in Lands End or John O’Groats, a rural village or a bustling city there may be a time when you are either looking for support, for somewhere to volunteer or a place to connect with others.

aDoddle is working to create both a UK wide map and a Network of ‘connected’ area-based community maps to bring together charities, community projects, groups and organisations, of all sizes, that provide these vital opportunities.

All information is added directly by charities, community groups and organisations themselves & with their unique ‘Traffic Light’ system it is easy see how ‘fresh’ it is.

aDoddle is inviting you to get involved:
