The theme for National Volunteering Week 2023 is ‘Connecting Communities’.
Volunteer Ireland says: “Volunteering is an act of profound generosity that can transform our communities into more diverse, dynamic, and welcoming spaces. By offering our time and skills to support the needs of others, we not only strengthen our communities, but also deepen our own sense of belonging and connection.
“This National Volunteering Week, we’re celebrating the power of volunteering to enrich our communities, bridge social divides, and create opportunities for meaningful connection.”
Organisations can get involved by sharing the stories of their volunteers on social media, or showing appreciation for volunteers by hosting a thank you party, coffee morning or afternoon tea.
