Over the last few months, as part of Volunteer Infrastructure Project (VIP) Greater Manchester Youth Network (GMYN) have been visiting organisations, who are working with young people in the central Manchester district, to find out their experiences and hopes of involving volunteers within this delivery. The next phase of this project aims to bring these discussions forward to develop the VIP offer for the New Year, in part through two surveys (one for organisations/individual workers to complete and one for volunteers).
These surveys have been created to build up a picture of the experiences of or hopes of involving volunteers within work with young people in central Manchester.
GMYN will be holding two listening and learning groups at the Moss Side Powerhouse on:
Tuesday 3 November 2013, 1pm - 3:30pm and
Monday 9 December 2013, 10am - 12:30pm
These sessions will be discussion groups exploring issues and ideas of relevance to this topic (involving adult volunteers in work with young people) and will feed into research for a dissertation project.
To complete the survey, visit: www.gmyn.co.uk/cm/blog/322-vip-our-news-and-your-views.html by 1 December 2013.
