We are welcoming back our weekend of volunteering training courses following the pandemic. Our new course layout allows more flexible training for our volunteers.

Please find below a course list and the content covered. Course enrolment is first come, first served by completing the booking form at the bottom of the page.

Very limited indoor accommodation is available for those completing two or more courses over the weekend. This will also be on a first come, first served basis with only 20 spaces.

We will provide tea and coffee for all courses, however you will need to bring your own lunch in some circumstances. We will provide an evening meal (Saturday only) and breakfast for those staying over.

For Example:

  • Attending a single course on the Saturday or Sunday – bring your own lunch.
  • Attending a course on the Saturday and Sunday, but NOT staying over – bring your own lunch on both days.
  • Attending a course on the Friday evening and Saturday, but NOT staying over – bring your own lunch on the Saturday.
  • Attending the Friday evening course, a course on the Saturday and staying over on the Friday night – lunch will be provided on the Saturday alongside Saturday breakfast.
  • Attending a Saturday course, a Sunday course, and staying over on the Saturday night – bring your own lunch for Saturday and lunch will be provided for Sunday, alongside a Saturday evening meal and Sunday breakfast.
  • Attending a course on Friday evening, a Saturday Course and a Sunday course, with staying over both nights – you will be provided with breakfast and lunch on Saturday and Sunday, plus a Saturday evening meal.
