Offaly Volunteer Centre (OVC) is a placement service to match individuals who seek to volunteer with organisations and committees’ that have a need for voluntary support.

OVC is located in Offaly Local Development Company Office on Main St. Tullamore.

The Volunteer Centre Co-ordinator is Mary Brady who can be contacted by phoning 057 93 52467, by emailing This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it  or you can also visit our website.

At the moment we are in the initial stages of setting up our Volunteer Centre and hope to be ready to match volunteers with volunteer opportunities in April.

In the meantime we need to affiliate as a recognised centre for Garda Vetting, so that all our volunteers that are placed with organisations/services have been Garda vetted & prepare groups for taking on volunteers by offering Volunteer Management training.

However if you are interested in volunteering in Offaly please contact us in the meantime so we can let you know more about the service we provide at a Volunteer Centre. You can give us your details and areas of interest for volunteering so that we can find you a new place to volunteer and meet new people and gain a new experience.

We provide support for both volunteers & organisations seeking volunteers.
