Squirrels growth support sessions
Opening a new Drey or starting as a new volunteer at a Squirrel Drey, come along to these sessions for some great advice and support on how to start your volunteer journey at Squirrels.
Congratulations on starting your Squirrels journey and volunteering at a Squirrels Drey! It is an exciting time with lots of new information for you to find out and we would like to provide you with support.
We would like to invite you to our online 'Squirrels growth support sessions'. These are intended for:
- Squirrels volunteers opening a new Squirrels Drey
- New Squirrels volunteers starting at an existing Squirrels Drey
In these sessions, a Squirrels growth team member will provide you with more information around themed topic areas for Squirrels that volunteers have told us they need. It will also give you the opportunity to ask questions and receive peer support from other Squirrel volunteers. The current Squirrels growth support sessions you can sign up to are:
- Programme planning at Squirrels
- Behaviour management and support at Squirrels
If you think these sessions are for you, your group or any new Squirrels volunteers starting at your Drey then please sign up to the sessions below.
