Are you involved in managing or supporting volunteers? Perhaps you’re a paid worker or volunteer yourself.
The Cardiff Volunteer Co-ordinators’ Network:
- Is run in partnership with Volunteers Coordinators, Managers, Supervisors, and Team Leaders across Cardiff.
- Meets quarterly and is the forum for Cardiff’s volunteer coordinators to discuss ideas or problems relating to volunteering.
- Provides new ideas for including volunteers and for recognising and rewarding their contribution to your organisation.
- Shares best practice and learning on how to support and train colleagues who work with volunteers.
The network is a Participation and Engagement initiative by Cardiff Third Sector Council as part of its commitment to the development and support of the volunteering infrastructure in Cardiff and its role within Third Sector Support Wales. Each quarterly meeting is packed with information, guidance, discussions and networking. It is also a great way to raise the profile of volunteering in Cardiff.
Membership and all network events are free.
To become a member of the network and/or to attend the next meeting, please email volunteer@c3sc.org.uk
The date for the next network meeting is: Tuesday, 31 January 2023, 1:30pm-3:00pm. This will be a hybrid event – so you can participate via Microsoft Teams or in-person at Butetown Community Centre.
