POWYS VOLUNTEER INVOLVERS NETWORK

4th June 
10am to 3pm 
Unit 30 Ddole Road Industrial Estate/ Ystad Ddiwydiannol Heol Ddole, Llandrindod Wells.

The Network has been formed to give Volunteer Involving Organisations across the county the chance to meet up, share information, listen to key note speakers and share practices.
Powys Volunteer Centre would like to work with the network to indentify the support we could provide to meet your needs. We will also provide regular opportunities to share tips and experiences with other people woh have responsibility for recruiting and managing volunteers.
We have been lucky enough to get Phil Fiander of WCVA to come along and speak about the future challenges of volunteering in Wales
