Event

Could your organisation benefit from the skills and time of staff volunteers?

We would like to invite voluntary and community sector (VCS) organisations to an event showcasing organisations with staff volunteering programmes that are keen to support the voluntary and community sector in County Durham.

The aim of the event is to highlight the opportunities available through Employer Supported Volunteering (ESV) and how organisations can access and make the most of the skills, experience and time offered by staff volunteers to support their work and strengthen communities across County Durham.

This year’s event will take a slightly different format. Instead of a series of presentations, we will provide a brochure of all organisations offering staff volunteering, outlining the types of support available. This will be shared with attendees ahead of the event and available in hard copy on the day.

During the event, we will:

• Provide a short overview of ESV and the network of providers
• Offer opportunities to speak directly with organisations offering staff volunteering to explore potential support for your organisation

The event will take place on Wednesday 22nd April at Josephine Butler College, Durham University, from 1.30pm – 3.30pm, with registration and refreshments open from 1.00pm.

Booking in advance is required to secure places. 

For any enquiries, please email info@durhamcommunityaction.org.uk

The venue and refreshments are kindly being provided by Durham University.
