At the Volunteer Centre we know that many paid or unpaid staff responsible for recruiting and managing volunteers often work alone in their organisation. Whilst we know that our volunteer managers do a fantastic job, they often feel isolated in their roles.

The Volunteer Managers Network was set up to address this gap in support, bringing together like minded individuals to experience peer support, share ideas, opportunities and knowledge.

The Volunteer Managers network meets regularly to discuss all things volunteering. As a result of these meetings new partnerships have developed including opportunities to share training, organise volunteer recruitment events and gain knowledge, tools and techniques to address a wide variety of volunteer management related issues.

To attend these meetings all you have to do is subscribe annually to the Volunteer Development Service or pay per meeting (£10 per meeting)
