Volunteer week


The Cork Branch of the Irish Wildlife Trust are participating in Volunteer Week 2010. Volunteer week will take place from the 5th-11th April 2010.  The event is organised by the Right Honourable Lord Mayor of Cork Cllr. Dara Murphy.

The main aim of volunteer week will be:
•   to say thank you to volunteers.
•   to acknowledge the tremendous contribution volunteers make to our
  community.
•   to highlight good volunteering practice .i.e. induction, development
  and training, working contracts.
•   to enable voluntary and community groups the opportunity to recruit a
  new generation of volunteers.

The Cork Branch will be participating in the week on:

Fri. 9th  (4p.m set-up.-9p.m)
Sat.10th (10a.m.-4p.m.)
Sun 11th April (10a.m.-4p.m. April 2010)

We will be running a stall and are looking for volunteers to help on a rota basis. It will involve standing behind the stall and giving the information (on the stall) to anyone who is interested in joining or finding out more about the group. Any small amount of help would be appreciated from an hour upwards. Please if you can help out could you contact Niall on this email giving a contact number and preferred days and times when you could help.

Any help would be greatly appreciated as we rely upon people kindly donating their time in aid of promoting the importance of wildlife.

Thank you. Gill
