New Kids on the Clock; Joe Saxton on the rise in youth volunteering and its impact on society | nfpSynergy: Our recent research showed that volunteering among young people (16-24) has doubled over the last decade. In 2003, around 14% of young people had volunteered in the last 3 months and by 2013 this figured has reached 32% in our polling. Indeed, as recently as 2010 our data showed that only 16% were giving their time and after that we saw an almost continuous rise.

So what is causing this rise and what does it mean for young people and society
