Volunteer Coordinators Network December Meeting
Mince Pies and a Goldstar Guest



I hope you've blocked out the morning of Thursday 13th December for the fun-packed, mince-pie fuelled festive VCN. So that I order enough of these pies, please let me know that you're coming to this VCN meeting in advance. I'll also remind you about this again nearer the date.

We have just had confirmation that our guest speaker will be Barry Coleman, Director of Tribal Consulting, who will be talking about Goldstar, the Cabinet Office project which has been working with organisations in a number of parts of the UK to develop and share good practice around volunteering. It will be interesting to hear how things that we are trying to do at a local level are done nationally and in other parts of the UK.

We will also hear from Peter Ling of Nottingham University about a volunteering research that he is leading in Nottingham.

On the other hand if you have never been to a VCN meeting, please get in touch and invite yourself along.
