Volunteer Management Training coming to Wandsworth

Wandsworth Care Alliance is running a new, modular training programme for volunteer managers/co-ordinators, covering all aspects of recruiting and managing volunteers. There will be 12 places on each session and, to allow the maximum number of organisations to benefit, one place per organisation.

Participants can book one or more of the training sessions within the programme. We anticipate this series of courses will be popular so please book your place as soon as possible.

Sessions will be run, initially on Zoom from 10:30am – 13:00pm including a refreshment break.

The training will be provided by Stephanie Pinner, an experienced trainer from Volunteer Centre Greenwich. Stephanie helped to develop the programme and materials and has refined it over the course of several years in response to the needs and feedback from volunteer involving organisations.

Later sessions may be run in person dependent on government guidance, availability of suitable venues and participant feedback.

Rest assured, Wandsworth Care Alliance is working with Diana Hardman from our local Battersea Volunteers project, so there is a coordinated approach to supporting volunteers.
