We are delighted to share that we have been awarded the Investing in Volunteers Accreditation for best practice in Volunteer Management.
Investing in Volunteers aims to improve the quality of the volunteering experience for all volunteers and demonstrates that organisations value the enormous contribution made by their volunteers.
