Volunteer Management is changing.  Advances in technology, the growth of the internet, changes in demographics and new business models have altered the volunteering landscape. Social enterprise and the increasing pressures to make the role of management more professionally recognised, clearly show the shift in the sector.  It is vital that the voluntary sector is able to harness the potential of social change.

Henry Stewart’s conference on The Changing Face of Volunteering will explore the most recent challenges of volunteer management and will highlight how to adapt volunteer programmes to reflect these issues.  It will address the types of people who volunteer, particularly generational differences and growing diversity.  You will hear presentations on the trends, tools and techniques that volunteer managers must increasingly learn to use.

This conference will give you the latest thinking on how to develop an effective volunteer management programme.
