Volunteer Coordinators Forum

The Aberdeenshire Volunteer Coordinator's Forum met for the first time in February 2009. It's aims are to: 

- Provide an environment for the discussion of volunteer management issue
- Promote good practice in volunteer management
- Provide peer support amongst forum members
- Give VIOs in Aberdeenshire a voice
- Allow VCA to disseminate useful volunteering information
- Inform the work of VCA

The forum is open to those in a role of recruiting and managing volunteers, (whether in a paid or voluntary capacity), for not-for-profit organisations based in or involving volunteers in Aberdeenshire.
The forum is facilitated by VCA but the content of meetings and any joint activity is driven by its members.

Currently the forum is meeting approximately once a quarter, and is split in to North and South groups to make travel more manageable for members.
If you would like to attend forum meetings - please contact the appropriate VCA office (see details below).
