DCMS is leading a major volunteering drive to support the civil sector during the Covid-19 outbreak.
Bodies such as the National Council of Volunteering Organisations (NCVO), British Red Cross and National Emergencies Trust are being closely supported, the Government says.
Culture Secretary Oliver Dowden said: "I know that many people across the country are wondering how they can help those who are more vulnerable – whether that’s delivering food to those isolating or simply being around for a chat on the phone.
"I have been so encouraged by how the British public, alongside our brilliant charities and volunteers, are rising to the challenges presented by COVID-19 and supporting each other at this challenging time."
More details on the Government’s plans and how individuals and organisations can take part will be announced soon.
