About this event

On Thursday 18th September, join us at Bridgnorth Community Hall to learn about how your organisation can effectively work with volunteers.

This workshop, led by Community Resource, will cover:

  • volunteer recruitment
  • policy documents
  • support for volunteers
  • retention of volunteers

The workshop will also cover creating a volunteer handbook, appointing a volunteer coordinator and any extra training that may be required.

This workshop is aimed at Shropshire organisations that have volunteers or may be looking to recruit volunteers. This is a repeat of the workshop held previously at the Qube in Oswestry in 2024.

This workshop is funded by Ministry of Housing, Communities & Local Government (MHCLG) and the UK Shared Prosperity Fund (UKSPF).
