25.01.2022 Our Bassendean, Belmont & Swan online Volunteer Management Workshop : One of the many great points raised : Involving volunteers in our work is a way of delivering public benefit, which is our core purpose. Even if we had all the money in the world for all the paid staff we need, we would still actively seek volunteer participation. Why? Because volunteers: - Connect us to our local communities - Help us to reach new audiences - Challenge us, guide us and make sure we’re relevant. - Allow us and the sector to showcase the best of itself to the public. - Can be powerful advocates for our cause !
