Keeping it in the Community!!This event will focus on how to successfully reach, encourage and empower local people to volunteer within your organisation. Join us in the beautiful and tranquil surroundings of Hillfields Community Centre and Gardens for a session to explore this topic together and hear from the Community Centre and Gardens as to how they have worked in this way with their volunteers. There will be lots of chances for networking and for us all to continue to build the VOF community, and your connections within it.
Please note this event is being filmed to feature in a Voscur produced short film about volunteering. If you really don't want to be filmed please let us know at a sign in, there is the option to opt out. We expect shots to be fairly out of focus/backs of heads etc and can easily avoid indviduals.
