Connecting Exercise – Volunteer Action Centres

You should now know where your local Volunteer Action Centres are located.

Contact your local volunteer centre/volunteer action centre and find out about upcoming events and networking opportunities that you could participate in.

This could include a funders fair, an outdoor event bringing together local community gardens, a showcase of music made through local charities. As part of this you could put on an activity such as object handling to engage more directly or you could participate informally.

  • What does that mean for your next steps?
  • What does that mean for your project?
  • What does that mean for your museum?

This exercise should take about 30 minutes.

Please record your learning in your reflection notes.
