Skill conference - Shaping the Debate: Access to volunteering for disabled people
Skill will be running a half-day conference on 25th January 2005 at TimeBank, London Bridge to highlight access to volunteering for disabled people. Skill's latest research project on disabled people's access to volunteering found that nearly three-quarters of the 45 organisations involved had experience of working with disabled volunteers. Fiona MacTaggart, Parliamentary Under Secretary for race equality, community policy and civil renewal will be giving the key note speech at this conference which will look at involving disabled people as volunteers in your organisation. Skill's newest publication - a resource manual on how to involve disabled people as volunteers - will be distributed at the conference. Fee for the conference is £30 +VAT for statutory organisations and £10 +VAT for voluntary organisations. Bursaries are available for disabled volunteers.
