Here at Spark Somerset, we’ve been supporting the voluntary sector in South Somerset, Mendip and Sedgemoor for many years, and are really delighted to be expanding our services into Taunton and West Somerset.
Our experienced team are passionate about supporting voluntary and community organisations, and can provide advice and expertise on a range of topics to help you and your group. Our dedicated Voluntary Sector Advisor, Catherine, will be community based in Taunton and West Somerset, offering vital support on a local level. If you haven’t met Catherine already, we’re sure you will soon. If you would like to get in touch in the meantime, you can email her at support@sparksomerset.org.uk.
We’re also delighted to welcome Jo, who worked with Engage for many years, to our Volunteering team. Many of you will already know Jo and we're really pleased be working with her - her knowledge and experience of the local voluntary sector will ensure that we can provide valuable continuity, especially during these difficult times. You can get in touch with Jo at jo.scrimshire@sparksomerset.org.uk.

We'll be in touch with regular updates and information, but do feel free to get in touch to let us know what additional support you may need. We are constantly adapting our services to meet your needs, so welcome your thoughts and ideas.
