About this Event

Hi all,We’d like to warmly invite you to join our next Volunteer Coordinators meeting on April 29th from 10am-12pm

These informal gatherings are a great opportunity to:

  • Meet and network with other volunteer coordinators
  • Share ideas, experiences, and challenges
  • Discover new resources and best practices
  • Strengthen collaboration across organisations


In addition to our normal peer support and networking, one of our topics for this meeting will be how we can better involve young people in volunteering.


We know that this can be difficult for many as there are some complications that come with having young volunteers such as questions regarding insurance cover, safeguarding, and creating suitable roles, and we are hoping to be able to come together and provide information and success stories on involving young people in volunteering.


We look forward to seeing you all again again soon.
