Volunteer Awards Celebration
5 June 2008

Volunteers’ Week 1-7 June 2008 will see a celebration at Ashton Town Hall in recognition of the contribution of local volunteers.

2008 is the first year the Volunteer Award scheme has been organised in partnership with Volunteer Centre Tameside, Tameside Metropolitan Borough Council and Tameside 3rd Sector Coalition in order to recognise the commitment and achievements of local volunteers.

Andy Hoyle from Tameside Radio will provide music and also be Master of Ceremony for the evening. Volunteer led groups that reflect the diverse talents of our local communities will provide entertainment.
Bronze (100 hours), silver (200 hours) and gold certificates (500 hours) will be awarded to volunteers in recognition of their work with an organisation and certificates will also be awarded for outstanding or extraordinary achievements.

Visit www.tamesidevb.org.uk/recognition to register your organisation online. We'll send you time sheets for your volunteers to fill in and you simply need to send those to us when an award level is reached and we'll do the rest.

Do any of your volunteers have hidden talents? If so, there may be the opportunity to showcase them.
They don’t need to be stars of the screen or stage but they do need to be currently volunteering and confident about performing in public. We are also looking for volunteer led groups who may also be able to provide entertainment on the evening. We would like the entertainment to reflect the diversity
of Tameside Communities so if you know of anyone, please get in touch with us.

More information: contact Volunteer Centre Tameside, Tel: 0161 339 2345, email vashti@tamesidevb.org.uk
