Are you looking for new volunteers to support your charity, community group, or social enterprise in Norfolk?
We’re inviting local voluntary organisations to take part by hosting interactive stalls or "activity spaces" where you can engage attendees. Here are a few ideas to get you started:
- Films and videos showcasing organisations and volunteers
- Decorate stall with a theme
- Pop up banners and posters/flyers/leaflets/postcards
- Demonstrations of activities
- Current volunteers to talk about their experiences
- Games, crafts, quizzes or myth busting
We understand that some organisations may not be able to demonstrate the activities their volunteers typically undertake, such as befriending or health and social care roles. We encourage you to think creatively and offer an activity that will engage attendees and spark conversations about your organisation’s work.
If you’re unsure what activities to offer, we’ll be hosting an informal meeting to discuss ideas with you.
