Newcastle Volunteering Forum
The Newcastle Volunteering Forum is a peer-led group facilitated by Volunteer Centre Newcastle. The forum meetings take place quarterly and are informal and friendly. They provide a place where volunteer co-ordinators can meet each other, exchange ideas and best practice and contribute to the development of volunteering within Newcastle.

The next meeting of the Newcastle Volunteering Forum is on Wednesday 25th February 2009. The meeting is at MEA House at 2pm. The theme of this meeting has not yet been finalised, but it is likely to be on one of the following topics: 1) Approaches to interviewing and dealing with inappropriate volunteers 2) Best Practice of managing volunteers 3) Recruitment and retention of volunteers 4) General good practice for voluntary organisations These were the most common themes chosen by organisations who completed our organisation evaluation form that we sent out in the latter part of last year. The topic of the next meeting will be publicised on this page by the end of January.
