21 clubs, societies and volunteer groups
The groups that run Saltash
Scouts and guides, park wardens and bandsmen, a foodbank and a twinning association — most of what happens in this town happens because somebody volunteers to make it.

Getting in touch
Groups are listed with their venue and their own website where they have one. We deliberately don't republish the volunteers' personal email addresses and mobile numbers — those belong to them, not to us. The town council keeps the full contact list, and keeps it current: community groups on saltash.gov.uk ↗.
