Involving Young People in Volunteering and Social Action

Overview

Young people in Wales want more opportunities to volunteer. When they have good opportunities, not only do they gain valuable skills and experiences, they contribute a huge amount to communities across Wales and beyond.

This course is for organisations who want to involve young people in volunteering, or who want to improve their existing practice. Whether you’re new to volunteering, want to expand your audience to involve young people, or just want to make sure your existing practice is OK, this course has something for you. We define young people here as aged 14-25 but you can adapt the advice and tips to any age – much of the learning here is best practice for all ages of volunteers.
