Volunteer Managers‘ Forum
Created: 11/07/2024, Updated: 01/11/2024Our Volunteer Managers' Forums are open to anyone who works or volunteers in Fife and who is involved in the recruitment and/or management/supervision of volunteers.
The forum will give you the chance to meet other Volunteer Managers, share ideas and approaches to various issues that are important now within the volunteering sector.
We are delighted to have Heather Bowie, YPI Programme Officer joining us at this Forum. YPI is the biggest independent initiative being delivered in Scottish education. Each school is responsible for directing a grant of £3,000 to a local charity championed by its students through a unique programme of teamwork, research, and competition.
YPI engages a full year-group of students, developing skills and confidence through a contextualised learning experience. The programme raises awareness of social issues and local charities and is a vital means of devolved, locally driven grant-making.
We will also hear from the Volunteering into Work team about their work supporting young people into volunteering and the recent education pilot.
The biggest benefit of this meeting, and the one that participants speak most highly of, is the chance to meet and learn from each other. There will be time to have open discussions, build connections, share ideas and hear from our speaker.
We look forward to seeing you there. Book now!
