These are our monthly inductions for new volunteers - or refreshers for existing volunteers that signed up before lockdown and didnt really get a chance to get to know the building.
As you know, the Harris is now closed to the public. It is a little strange at the moment as we are transitioning into being without our building and starting to deliver our work within the community.
So the induction will be fairly adaptable depending on what your interests are and what you as an individual might need to know.
We will still go through some of our regular proceedures and routines together and also fill in some important paperwork too.
It will be led in the main by Kyra our Communities and Volunteers Officer along with an existing volunteer so that you can ask them any questions you like.
We are looking forward to seeing you!
By the way, there are induction sessions planned for every other month now.
