With one month under my belt and a whole lot of project planning in the bank I looked forward to February coming around. Looking back, I managed to achieve a lot so far (blowing my own trumpet...) and Feburary saw 4 key milestones reached:

January is often a quiet month, but it hasn’t felt like it at the Volunteer Centre. We held our latest Volunteer Fair on the 20th Jan, at the Geddes Place United Reform Church. This was a new venue for us, and it proved a success. Previously we’d been using our training room here at Crayford Manor House, but we are a little out of the way here. Relocating to the bright lights and big city (relatively speaking) of Bexleyheath made the Fair much more accessible.

I am writing this as January becomes a distant memory having reached a debut milestone at BVSC; completing my first month. I feel I have settled in really quickly and I am really enjoying putting together our Impact Project. So what has happened so far?

Young volunteers can transform our organisations, and our community

Welcome to my first blog!

I’ll be using the blog partially to talk about current volunteering issues, good practice, and policy developments, but also to raise discussion points. Volunteering can be a topic that gets ignored even within the charity sector, but it deserves to be thought about, debated and even disagreed over.
