About this event

This online (Zoom) session will look at the processes involved in effective volunteer recruitment and how excellent ‘customer service’ can help you recruit and engage volunteers more effectively.

This session will help you:

  • Learn a five step process for effective volunteer recruitment
  • Reflect on how you can improve your own volunteer recruitment practice
  • Understand the importance of delivering great 'customer service' in volunteer engagement
  • Reflect on key customer service principles you can apply in your work now

Who should attend:

The session is suitable for any trustee, staff member or volunteer in the Richmond borough who is responsible for recruiting and managing volunteers or who is thinking of using volunteers to support their work.

This session is part of our regular series of half-day and bite size training sessions which help develop capacity and promote best practice in volunteer management. Further sessions will cover other aspects of developing a volunteer management programme and these include managing and supervising volunteers, volunteering and the law and handling difficult volunteer related situations.
