Royston Volunteer Centre manager Denise Graham’s regular look at the voluntary sector in North East Herts
At the Volunteer Centre we provide services to people in our community by guiding them to the local organisation, group or sports club that is right for them. We have lots of feedback to show how volunteering has changed the lives of so many individuals.
We also support local groups and voluntary organisations, not just by sending them volunteers, but by providing advice, information, training and support.
But we are also a charity – one that helps other charities every day – and in the current funding climate it’s crucial for us to continue this support.
Volunteering has a two way benefit. While helping to improve life for others, you’ll get something out of the experience for yourself. There’s nothing wrong with that – volunteering is a ‘win-win’ thing.
We thought we would apply that principle to our fundraising and have come up with a way that you can help support us to provide our services and have a fun evening for yourself!
Come and join us for our quiz evening with quiz master Steve Gourd on Friday, April 22.
