Please complete our survey to help us find out about volunteering in West Berkshire

 

Building on success. In a recent place survey, the unitary authority area of West Berkshire has been recognised as the highest volunteering unitary authority in the UK.  By working in partnership with West Berkshire Council and the Local Strategic Partnership, Volunteer Centre West Berkshire wishes to build on its successful track record by further promoting volunteering and community participation across the district.

 As part of our Recruitment and Recognition Programme for 2009/10 we are keen to know exactly how many people are volunteering, where they are volunteering and how much time they give. If you are volunteering in West Berkshire please click here to take our survey  and help the Volunteer Centre to have a clearer picture of what's going on in your town, parish, village, hamlet, community or neighbourhood. 

 In June 2010 we plan a major volunteer celebration and we want you to come.
