Growing volunteering across health and social care

We need to grow volunteering: both to expand and extend volunteer activity and also to improve the strategic focus, planning, resourcing and impact. Our health and care services need to find ways of working with all available resources within our communities, including volunteers, if they are to avert a growing crisis of capacity.

This webinar is jointly organised by Helpforce and WCVA. It will introduce some ways in which Helpforce can support organisations to grow volunteering, including the development of new volunteer services, evaluating health outcomes of volunteer activity and online events, forums and resources.

We will hear from projects in Wales and England about their experience, and there will be ample opportunity for questions and discussion.

The event is most relevant to those who have responsibility for volunteering aligned to health and social care, whether in NHS or community settings. It will be of interest also to those in strategic roles, volunteering infrastructure bodies and to those with interest in integrated service development and innovation within health and social care.
