We are thrilled to invite you to a special Morning Tea to celebrate International Volunteer Managers Day!
Join us as we recognize and honour the incredible contributions you make as a leader of volunteers. This event is a fantastic opportunity to connect with fellow volunteer managers, share experiences, and reflect on the vital role you play in shaping the future of volunteering.
We’re excited to welcome Chris Atkinson as our guest speaker, who will share insights on the evolving landscape of volunteering.
Chris has worked in volunteer engagement since the International Year of the volunteer in 2001. She established the volunteer service at Waikato Hospital and worked for nine years as a regional advisor for Volunteering Waikato. Currently Chris is an advisor for the volunteer service at Health New Zealand Te Whatu Ora Waikato, as well as providing training, coaching and mentoring to Not-For-Profits in best practice volunteer engagement.
'Working with volunteers is satisfying, challenging, and hugely enriching - and requires leadership, resources and resilience. Our sector is at a critical crossroads where transformational change is required to meet the needs of both volunteers and our communities. No more horizon gazing - we must take action now.' Chris Atkinson
