We need your help!
We would like voluntary organisations to tell us about why they currently DO and DON'T involve young people in volunteering by completing a short survey that takes less than 5 minutes. The link is available here
This is part of some research Hambleton Community Action is completing on how to encourage more young people to get involved with volunteering in North Yorkshire.
We would also welcome help in sharing a survey for young people to complete asking them their views on volunteering. Young people aged 15 – 25 completing the survey before 18 December have the chance to win £100 in High Street Vouchers, just in time for Christmas. The link is available here
If you would like to find out more about this project, please email volunteering@hambletoncommunityaction.org or Tel. 01609 780458
