What's your passion?
Young people's survey
 
NVYA is conducting our annual consultation to find out about the passions, cares and interests of young people aged between 13 and 25 in Northamptonshire.  We will use your responses to develop youth volunteering opportunities that are interesting to young people in the county. The questionnaire will take you about 5 minutes to fill in.  Please answer all the questions that are relevant to you.  Your responses will be confidential.  Follow the link to complete the survey. 
 
 
Once you have completed the survey, if you would like to be entered into our free prize draw to win a £25 HMV voucher, please email christine.morgan@northampton.ac.uk with your name, address and contact details stating FREE PRIZE DRAW in the subject bar.
Thanks

Volunteers for youThis event has been designed to encourage understanding of youth volunteering and how NVYA can support you in developing opportunities and programmes for active youth involvement in volunteering. Whether you are experienced in working with young volunteers or are just starting to find out how rewarding it can be, we hope that you will find it useful. The event aims to share best practice and will provide supporting evidence for local and national quality marks such as the Children and Young People Charter of Involvement and Investing in Volunteers. It may also provide support for the development of quality volunteering opportunities for COPE Awards and the new Diplomas.

The benefits of involving young volunteers include opportunities to share and develop new skills, talent and ideas; excitement, commitment, access to new resources and funding sources; developing and extending links with the community and spreading the word about your organisation and the valuable work it does in young people’s communities. Your local vinvolved team at NVYA will be happy to discuss your individual needs and are able to support you in developing a quality, nationally recognised, youth volunteering programme.
