Volunteers’ Week is an annual campaign which takes place on 1-7 June and celebrates the fantastic contribution millions of volunteers make across the UK.
This year is the 30th anniversary of Volunteers’ Week and it’s time to celebrate! To recognise the 30th anniversary we are using the number 30 as a hook and theme for the week. This is an opportunity for you to get creative in celebrating the work of volunteers in Manchester.
Last year was hugely successful thanks to all of you who took part and we want to make this year bigger than ever!
