A red paper gift bag with a tag that reads ‘thank you for volunteering in 2024. Snuggle up with the socks and enjoy a warm drink.’

An incredible evening of celebration, community, singing, carols, bingo, quizzing, crafting and bonding.

Our volunteers are truly fabulous and we’re so lucky to work alongside them 🤩

Image of poster for Leeds Hospitals Charity volunteer winter celebration event. An open mic night. Image shows our Ernie the owl mascot presenting the words with an image of a curtain and a microphone stand. Ernie is sat on a tree beach with stars and hearts dangling from it. The poster is a mixture of blues and purples.

Gearing up for one of my favourite events in the volunteer management year: our #winter celebration 💜

We’ll be providing mince pies and hot chocolates whilst saying #thankyou and celebrating the successes of our incredible #volunteers in 2024.

Starting this week on a trial shift in our new Wayfinder role @ Leeds Children’s Hospital 💜. #Volunteers in this role support patients/visitors find where they’re going when they arrive at hospital. Today we’re also asking questions to gauge the #impact of this important service 🤩 #volunteering #NHS

Workshop 1 complete! Thinking about implementing change - big or small - and how considering #volunteer motivations can make a difference to your messaging and what and how you communicate the change to them. Food for thought 🙌🏼 #AVM2024

Feeling inspired by this morning’s keynote from John Mark Williams at Day 1 of this year’s #AVM2024 conference. What could we do next and achieve with volunteers if we remove the fear of getting thing’s wrong??

Northern Lights in Leeds tonight 😍

Hurrah. Here’s hoping the migration happens and this place starts to feel like T once was! Hope you’re well 🙌🏼
