This Friday at Casal d'Entitats, training session for aspiring volunteers

cartell-cursos-voluntariat-22-1The social welfare office of the Consell de Formentera reports that this Friday, 22 November, the Casal d'Entitats will host a training workshop for local volunteers.

The instruction will be guided by employees of the Balearic Islands government, and is intended for volunteer groups as well as individuals interested in lending a hand. The session for groups takes place Friday, from11.30am to 1.30pm, and will offer insight into new rules that came with the passing of legislation on volunteer work in the Balearics. Individual volunteers will congregate from 3.00pm to 7.00pm, for a session that is designed as basic training for people hoping to develop a better understanding of how volunteering works, which associations are doing it, what the rules are governing it and what resources are out there for volunteers.

Signups are required for both sessions and can be processed online at www.plataformavoluntariat.org, by telephoning the toll-free number 900 102 979, or by visiting Formentera's Department of Social Welfare.

Whether as part of a group or as an individual, the Consell encourages all volunteers to come out for the day of training.
