Volunteering Information Session in Yewdale! (Organisation bookings)

This Volunteering Works - Volunteering Information Session in Carlisle  will take place on Monday 13th January 2025 from, 13.00pm-3.30pm at Yewdale Community Centre, Hutton Way, Carlisle, CA2 7TH.

This face to face event will bring together a range of organisations that are looking to recruit new volunteers from Yewdale or surrounding areas, but who may also have job opportunities too.

By attending the event volunteers will find out more about local organisations that are looking to recruit new volunteers, the wide range of local volunteering opportunities available, when and where volunteers are needed and how to become a volunteer.

We kindly ask that each organisation that attends to speak for around 10 minutes on what they organisation does and their volunteering opportunities. There will also be the opportunity for potential volunteers to ask questions to organisations so we anticipate each organisation having a 20 minute time slot. Cumbria CVS will allocate a set time so you just need to attend for your given time slot rather than the full event should you wish too.

Please do bring any posters, leaflets, information, and application forms to hand out to potential volunteers. 

As part of this Volunteering Works Session we are also looking to organise Volunteer Taster Days following these workshops so if your organisation would like to be involved. Please complete the additional questions sent in the confirmation email once booked. 

Closing date for bookings 16th December 2024 to allow time for publicity and promotion. Places will be confirmed after the closing date.

Priority bookings will go to CVS members and those organisations on the Volunteering Portal.

This Volunteering Session for Volunteering Works is funded by UKSPF – Cumberland Council, Community Panels.
