This webinar will explore what research tells us about volunteer motivation and satisfaction. You’ll learn how to put these insights into practice.
We’ll hear from NCVO staff, partners and member organisations who’ll share:
- tips on how to show gratitude to volunteers
- practical ideas to better understand what your volunteers really want.
We’ll then look to the future and imagine together what volunteer recognition should look like in ten years’ time.
