Welcome to the Institute of Volunteer Leadership, a joint programme presented by Volunteer Ireland and Volunteer Now. Join us for a transformative journey where leaders of volunteers come together to share experiences, knowledge, and build a powerful network of leaders of volunteers across Ireland and Northern Ireland.
Victim Support at Court
The site visit to the Criminal Courts of Justice will give an insight into the environment the volunteers from Victim Support at Court (VSAC) operate in and the important work they do.
We will learn about the VSAC volunteer programme, including selection, training, support and recognition. You will have the opportunity to chat to some of the volunteers about why they do what they do, how they are supported and what benefits they get from their volunteer role.
There will be a presentation about the VSAC volunteer programme and a visit to the Victim Support Room so they get a sense of how Sara Murphy, VSAC Criminal Courts of Justice Coordinator (and National Volunteer Manager of the Year 2018) works with the volunteers to provide such a valuable service.
You must be a leader of volunteers (volunteer or paid) in your organisation and your organisation must be based in Northern Ireland or the Republic of Ireland to participate in this workshop.
This project has been supported by the Community Foundation for Northern Ireland. The project is managed by Volunteer Ireland and Volunteer Now.
