VOICE - Isle of Wight

For those of you who haven't heard of VOICE- Isle of Wight, VOICE is the Volunteer Organiser's Information Communication Exchange. The project is co-ordinated by the Isle of Wight Volunteer Centre, giving those who manage/co-ordinate volunteers on the Isle of Wight the chance to share good practice, ideas and also problems and hopefully learn from each other. VOICE offers networking events, training, an on-line forum and one to one support. The latest VOICE newsletter can be downloaded here and includes a useful section on Volunteer Recruitment.
