We learned more about the Big Help Out campaign this week… What you need to know… 1. The Big Help Out campaign is to help attract new people into volunteering and is taking place 7-9th June 2024 (aligning with Volunteers’ Week) 2. The objective of the campaign is to raise awareness of volunteering throughout the uk, to provide opportunities for people to experience volunteering and make a difference in their communities. 3. The opportunity to ‘give volunteering a go’ doesn’t have to take place in the exact window - lots of type of activities across the summer could be linked to Big Help Out! (And… this doesn’t have to be something new… if you do monthly taster sessions… this could be promoted via the Big Help Out campaign) 4. You can register your volunteering opportunities on the www.volunteering-wales.net website and link them to a Big Help Out category - so people can search for those opportunities 5. A partner pack is available with bilingual resources - thebighelpout.org.uk (a pack is also available for schools, although unfortunately not bilingually) If you’re not already connected with other volunteering involving organisations locally, you can get in touch with your local Volunteer Centre in Wales - find yours here Home - Third Sector Support Wales (scroll down to bottom of page) Or if you’re a national organisation involving volunteers in Wales and need more support, please get in touch with me @WCVA (or here). #VolunteersWeek #WythnosGwirfoddolwyr #TheBigHelpOut #BHO #Wales #VolunteerManagement #ThankYou #Diolch #TSSW Want some examples? 1. Volunteer information sessions - could current volunteers share more about what they do? 2. Volunteer taster sessions - what can volunteers ‘give a go’ 3. A micro volunteering task I.e. social media contribution, 4. Your longer term volunteering roles might be attractive to some people looking for this

Today, as I saw some of my volunteering badges, I realized how much I miss volunteering. 💡 Volunteering has played a significant role in shaping who I am today. My journey as a volunteer taught me invaluable lessons in teamwork, leadership, and empathy. The experiences I gained through giving back to the community have been instrumental in honing my skills and broadening my perspective. 🌟 I truly believe that the act of volunteering not only makes a positive impact on others, but also provides a platform for personal growth and learning. 🌍 I encourage everyone to explore the rewarding world of volunteering - the lessons you learn and the impact you make are immeasurable! 👏 What are some of the most impactful lessons you've learned from your volunteering experiences, and how have they shaped your life? #VolunteerExperience #PersonalGrowth #giveback

One of the things I've been running away from is, VOLUNTEERING. I really don't know why I've been shying away from it but I think the stress and responsibilities it comes with discourages me a lot. But since I resumed this semester, one thing I'm taking very serious is volunteering for events especially physical ones. In Chioma Adekoya, AAT, ACA's words, Volunteering helps in building great interpersonal skills, practising effective communication and team work. It's also a strategy to build one's personal growth and development because in one way or the other, we're building relevant life long skills by volunteering. So, I'm leveraging more on volunteering this year and the first event I volunteered for is LinkedIn Local Ife 2.0 that will be happening on the 11th of next month in Obafemi Awolowo University. I really can't wait to share pictures with you all. 🤭 PS: Have you been volunteering for events before now? How has your volunteering journey been like? What's your advice to a newbie volunteer like me? I'd love to read from you. 🥺 PSS: I'm still a Creative designer and I help brands increase their sales and visibility through mind-blowing designs that sell. #volunteering #skills #linkedin
