As part of our continued service to volunteer involving organisations, we have adapted a number of training programmes designed to provide flexibility and meet the needs of the community/voluntary sector. Along with the programme of training events in the Strabane area, we are also able to offer groups individually tailored sessions to meet your own specific needs from as little as £10 per participant. Through this, sessions can be delivered at a time and place to suit your own needs, with evening sessions also being considered.

So, whether you need guidance on managing volunteers or you need to examine child protection procedures in you organisation, we can design a programme to deal with your training needs.

To book a session or to find out further information on our training programmes, please contact the centre on tel. (028) 7127 1017 or by email to geoff@volunteeringnorthwest.co.uk.
