The volunteering questions were revised at the start of year 5 (from Mid-November 2019) to provide more detailed data on the frequency, duration and longevity of volunteering activity. As such, we are unable to report a combined 12-month figure at this release. The data tables linked to the May 19 – May 20 report represent data collected using the previous version of the volunteering questions (i.e. data captured during May-Nov 19).
