You support volunteers. Who supports you?

Managing volunteers is incredibly rewarding, but it's not without its challenges.

From volunteer engagement and retention to setting boundaries and gaining staff buy-in, volunteer managers and coordinators often face similar issues.

That's why our Volunteer Managers' Network exists.

Join us on 1 October for a supportive, session where you can share experiences, exchange ideas, and connect with others in volunteer management.

Everyone who manages or coordinates volunteers is welcome, whether professionally or as a volunteer yourself.

The Moray Youth Local Action Group (MYLAG) is back! and we're inviting young people in S1 to S6 to get involved!
MYLAG is part of a network of Local Youth Action Groups across Scotland and Europe, connecting young people to a wider movement that empowers them to influence decisions, support community projects, and create positive change where they live.
Find out more about what the group is about and how to get involved -- young people can also take part in a consultation on funding for eco youth projects in Moray, giving young people a direct voice in deciding how money is used to support local opportunities.
This session will run alongside the Eat, Chat, Chill group at The Inkwell Moray , so you're welcome to drop in and take part in either or both activities.
Tag a friend, Tag a Young Person! and stop by on Tuesday 1 September at the Inkwell. Can't make it but want to know more? Give us a message.
