National Volunteer Week 1st to the 5th June

[Volunteer Centre]

To celebrate National Volunteer Week the Argyll and Bute Volunteer Centre and Argyll Council for Voluntary Services are working in partnership with Argyll & Bute Council to host this year’s Volunteer Awards and to get the views of voluntary groups.

On Friday 5th June from 10am in the Council Chambers in Kilmory, Lochgilphead, volunteers and voluntary groups are being asked their views about training needs, funding and communication.

After lunch, in the afternoon, will be the Awards ceremony itself with the successful individuals and groups being honoured for their time and commitment to volunteering from across the area.

If you cannot come to the event but feel that you could contribute to identifying what support you could do with as a voluntary group, what support you offer your volunteers and what barriers there are to the work that you do then please contact Kevin or Fiona at the Volunteer Centre.

If you would like to come along to this event transport is available through the local Volunteer Centre office at 21 Longrow South in Campbeltown or call 01586 554744.

The National Volunteer Week runs from the 1st to the 5th June and aims to recognise and reward the work of many thousands of volunteering hours here in Argyll alone.
