Updates from VAAC

Help us celebrate Volunteers' Week

Volunteers' Week is coming up at the beginning of June and we'd love it if you could help us to celebrate by asking your volunteers to tell us about their experiences of volunteering, or by letting us know what a difference they make to your organisation. We'd like to compile some quotes, videos and images for our social media over the week so please send us anything that you'd like us to include to jenny.garthwright@vaac.org.uk.

Thank you!
