Volunteers’ Week 2023: Celebrate and Inspire

Find out more about volunteering at The Amelia Scott

2023 marks the 39th year of Volunteers’ Week (1-7 June), when The Amelia Scott will join thousands of charities and voluntary organisations recognising the contribution volunteers make across the UK. With this year’s theme of ‘Celebrate and Inspire’ we hope to encourage people to be the change that we want to see and get involved in volunteering in whatever way works for them.

The contribution of volunteers is often unseen and unrecognised by many, visible only through the incredible impact of their volunteering, so taking the time during Volunteers’ Week to celebrate their efforts and all they contribute to our local communities, the voluntary sector and society as a whole has never been more important.

This Volunteers’ Week The Amelia Scott will be celebrating their volunteers, by sharing short videos to showcase the volunteer roles we have and are recruiting for.

Nicky Carter, Head of HR, Customer Service & Culture, said: “Volunteers' Week is a chance to celebrate and recognise the fantastic contribution our volunteers make. Thanks to them The Amelia Scott has been able to work further towards its mission of ‘enriching lives, inspiring learning’. We want to take a moment to recognize and express our heartfelt gratitude to all the amazing volunteers that work across the Borough. Their dedication, selflessness, and commitment make a world of difference in our community.”
