The fund will help a diverse range of people to access the benefits volunteering can bring. There will be a strong focus on young people, those experiencing loneliness, those with disabilities and those from ethnic minority backgrounds.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Mid Worcestershire answering member printed Nigel Huddleston grouped question UIN 88787 88792 question first answered 14/12/2021 09:35:52 answering member 4407 label Biography information for Nigel Huddleston
