Richmond CVS annual Trustee Recruitment Evening is back

The Richmond CVS Trustee Recruitment Evening is back this month, and it is the biggest yet.

Over 30 groups will be on hand to introduce you to their work and trustee opportunities.

As part of their work as the go-to support for local voluntary or community organisations, this annual free information and speed matching event is for anyone aged 18+ who is interested in finding out about volunteering and is curious about skilled or strategic roles.

The event is organised by the Richmond Volunteer Service, a team within Richmond CVS, who are here to guide you in learning about local groups that could be looking for just the skills you offer. If you’ve been looking for a really valuable way to ‘give back’ with your professional experience, trusteeship could be for you.

You can register now and informally speak to a range of great causes under one roof, as well as gain valuable information about others.  Amongst the stallholders will be those working in areas such as advice, arts, care, children, disability, health, education, history, heritage, neighbourhood support – to name just a few. It is a fantastic way to get a flavour of what you could get involved with, as well as gaining an insight into the diverse groups that make our community so special, and maybe enjoy a free glass of wine too.
