As part of Museum and Heritage Highland’s Future Proofing the Highland Museum Workshop, they invite you to join Make Your Mark for a free inclusive volunteering workshop.
In a time of societal inequality and sectoral precarity, inclusive heritage volunteering is key to building a more equitable society and resilient heritage sector. To support volunteer-involving heritage organisations to develop more inclusive volunteer programmes, Make Your Mark conducted research into barriers to and enablers for volunteering, and created a practical toolkit to help voluntary organisations create inclusive volunteering action plans.
At this event, participants will learn how to:
- Adapt volunteer roles to suit a wider range of people
- Explain the benefits of and business case for inclusive volunteering
- Identify barriers to and enablers for volunteering
