IN-PERSON: Volunteers - how to find and keep them

This in-person session is specifically for committee members or volunteer coordinators for rural community-owned businesses.

Join Plunkett UK in a lively interactive workshop and share peer support to learn how to find and keep those crucial people: volunteers! Delegates will leave with a tailored recruitment action plan, developed during the session.

Most rural community-owned businesses can't function without a healthy volunteer team behind (and sometimes in front of!) the scenes. But it can be a challenge to get people involved and to keep them once they are.

We'll be covering:

• why people volunteer (and why they don't)
• different types of volunteering (virtual, fitting it around people's work patterns, buddy volunteering etc)
• best practice
• how community engagement and volunteering are linked
• how to look after volunteers well (and what benefits you can and can't offer)

Booking is restricted to max. 2 delegates from each community business.

This training is FREE for Plunkett Members.
