About this Event
Cumbria CVS is hosting and organising a Volunteering Works Session, aiming to encourage unemployed people to get involved in volunteering as a pathway into employment.
This session aims to attract anyone interested in finding out more about becoming a volunteer and local volunteering opportunities in Carlisle, but also to consider the third sector job opportunities.
This Volunteering Works - Volunteering Information Session in Carlisle will take place on Tuesday 1 October from 10.30am-2.30pm at Harraby Community Centre, Harraby Community Campus Edgehill Road, Carleton. CA1 3SN.
This face to face event will bring together a range of organisations that are looking to recruit new volunteers from Carlisle , but who may also have job opportunities too.
By attending the event volunteers will find out more about local organisations that are looking to recruit new volunteers, the wide range of local volunteering opportunities available, when and where volunteers are needed and how to become a volunteer.
We kindly ask that each organisation that attends to speak for around 10 minutes on what they organisation does, their volunteering opportunities and job opportunities (if any). There will also be the opportunity for potential volunteers to ask questions to organisations so we anticipate each organisation having a 20 minute time slot. Cumbria CVS will allocate a set time so you just need to attend for your given time slot rather than the full event should you wish too.
As part of this Volunteering Works project, Cumbria CVS will also be arranging Volunteer Taster Days. If your organisation can host a Volunteer Taster Day, please state this on the Eventbrite booking form.
Please do bring any posters, leaflets, information, and application forms to hand out to potential volunteers.
Closing date for bookings is 2nd September 2024 to allow time for publicity and promotion. Places will be confirmed after the closing date.
Priority bookings will go to CVS members and those organisations on the Volunteering Portal.
This Volunteering Session and Volunteer Taster Days for Volunteering Works is funded by UKSPF – Cumberland Council.
By completing this booking form you are confirming you are happy for your organisations name and contact details to be shared with other attendees, potential new volunteers.
