Once you've completed this course, you should feel well informed of the main factors to consider when organising and running a volunteer activity.
Among other topics, we'll cover the importance of and processes involved in Risk Assessments, tool use, hazardous plants and how to find additional support if you need it.
The session will be a mix of presented information, practical examples and group discussions.
