HVA have been working with the Institute for Volunteering Research on the largest ever survey about volunteering in Hastings and the team have now launched a report of the findings. Find out more here: http://www.hastingsvoluntaryaction.org.uk/news/major-study-shines-light-volunteering-hastings.
The results of the HVA/IVR study will now be used to create a volunteering strategy for Hastings and HVA want to involve as many local voices and ideas in the process as possible. We will be holding two focus groups in October:
Tuesday 11th October, 4pm-6.30pm & Friday 14th October 12pm-2.30pm.
To get involved in a focus group, help to develop the strategy or simply share your views and experiences, book here, or contact Jane Caley on: [email protected] or call 01424 444010.
