EVENTS
Join us at our February 2020 volunteer managers’ forum where we will discuss all things volunteer management. The topics will be varied, and can be anything related to managing volunteers – and will be decided by you on the day. And this event is open to volunteer managers everywhere.
For this forum, we will:
- Ask you to think about some real life examples in your organisation and bring them with you so we can help you identify what to do next
- Look at some of the underlying causes of difficulties, and consider strategies to prevent them
You will also meet (and network with) other volunteer managers in Camden and beyond – and refreshments are included. Fantastic!
Book your place via Eventbrite.
>>> Please bring your business cards if you have them, for the networking sessions
>> We have a few free places available for Camden non-profits which have no paid staff and are unfunded. Get in touch with Shafia by email if this applies to your organisation.
> We will provide light refreshments. However, if you have any special dietary requirements please come prepared personally.
We look forward to seeing you on the day! 🙂
Come to our Volunteer Managers’ Cafe this February to get free, tailored support with managing local volunteers.
Want to volunteer in Camden?
Come and see us at Kentish Town Community Centre on Wednesday 18th March between 10am and 12pm. We will be on hand to help you do a search for volunteering in Camden (and a bit beyond), as well as answer any questions you may have about volunteering.
Please note: Our drop-ins are for people who need extra support to get started with their volunteering. People who get the most out of drop-ins:
- need extra support to use a computer
- are not sure what they would like to do as a volunteer – and would like to talk about the options available before they apply
- are unable to access the internet elsewhere
There is no need to book. Just drop in! 🙂
Please note: If you have access to the internet, are comfortable using computers and you know what you want to do as a volunteer then you can do an online search now via Simply Connect – and there is no need to come to the drop-in.
