Networking and mini training next Wednesday
Calling all managers and leaders of volunteers: our first MoVERS* meeting of the year is on next Wednesday at 12 noon.
This month, we'll be having a chat about recruiting volunteers - how we do it, why it matters how we do it, how to craft eye catching role descriptions, and the use of social media.
This event will take place ONLINE and is open to all managers, leaders, and coordinators of volunteers. Please feel free to enjoy your lunch during the meeting; we know you're all very busy!
Event will be held VIA ZOOM; a link will be sent out to people who have registered.
* MoVERS = Managers of Volunteers - Education, Resources, Support.

Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our February 2025 issue.
