Halton Vinvolved Latest News

In order to celebrate and promote volunteering amongst young people, vinvolved Halton hosted several high profile events throughout the past year. ‘Volfest’ (a festival of volunteering) was a wonderful start to the 25th anniversary celebrations for Volunteers Week, held in the walled gardens at Norton Priory. The ‘Shining Stars’ exhibition was an exciting exhibition of volunteers’ work which was displayed at the Brindley Theatre and enjoyed by over 1800 visitors. ‘Ultra Violet’ was a funky, purple-themed party night where 35 young people received their National v Awards. HYVE (Halton Youth Volunteering Event) is an annual event where young volunteers receive certificates and are recognised for their efforts by being offered a day full of fun activities.

This year they tried their hand at golf, archery, circus skills, wire art and radio presenting. Other achievements in the year included:

 

·         945 new opportunities created for volunteers.

 

·         Registered 217 new volunteers who were brokered into their chosen roles, as well as helping existing volunteers in our age group to progress with their volunteering.

 

·         The Youth Action Team (YAT) produced a professional ‘Good Practice Guide’ aimed at giving organisations wishing to involve young volunteers all the basic information that they need.

 

·         The YAT also created a promotional film, called ‘Modern Volunteering’, which can be used in schools and colleges. Visit: www.youtube.com/user/HaltonVA

 

·         YAT member, Stewart Holme, had the life changing experience of volunteering for 10 weeks in South Africa with Platform 2 and loved every minute of it.
