The aim of the workshop is to offer a creative, ideas and knowledge sharing space where the barriers and enablers to volunteering can be considered with people who have lived experience of poverty.

The participatory workshop invites people with lived experience of poverty and living on a low income to join us for a conversation to discuss the barriers and enablers to volunteering whilst living on a low income. British Red Cross, as a charity are actively seeking to ensure that our volunteering is inclusive, welcoming and offers flexible opportunities to suit potential volunteers from diverse backgrounds. Part of ensuring that we can offer inclusive volunteering opportunities is asking for feedback.

The workshop will begin with a free lunch and be a two hour participatory workshop that feeds into wider research being completed by the charity into barriers and enablers to volunteering.

Thank you Vouchers - £35 Love2Shop will be shared in recognition of people's participation.
