A number of these attended Glossop Volunteer Centre’s celebration event on June 5.
Jude Palmer, managing director of Digital Outreach, said: “The response from the local community has been fantastic, but we still have lots of places to fill.
“The key is to really think laterally about your skills and how they might benefit a local charity.”
