Volunteer Week 2026: A Celebration of Community, Connection, and Impact

We are delighted to share a gallery of official photographs from our Volunteer Week 2026 celebration, beautifully captured by our photographers.

This year was a special one for Link UP London as we returned to the iconic Battersea Power Station for our fifth annual Volunteer Week celebration in partnership with Battersea Power Station. Over the last five years, the event has become a wonderful opportunity to bring people together and celebrate the volunteers, organisations, and partners making a real difference across Wandsworth, Lambeth, and beyond.

Volunteer Week 2026 was a true celebration of community spirit. The evening brought together individuals from across the sector to reflect on the power of volunteering and the lasting impact it has on local communities. From inspiring speeches and thoughtful conversations to moments of connection between guests – including a very fun laughter yoga session led by Jaycee from Zen Laughter – the energy in the room was both uplifting and memorable.

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make the evening such a success. It’s the people in the room who make this event so special every year, and we loved celebrating with you.
