Home-Start is like a family, it’s easy to see why so many staff across the UK have committed so much of their time and their life to our work supporting volunteers, families and children #IVMday2019 #BecauseChildhoodCantWait #volunteering

I absolutely loved the @AVMtweets conference yesterday. There is nothing better than being in a room full of volunteering professionals, sharing practice and discussing the good, the bad and the brilliant parts of volunteer management. #AVM2019 Thank you for a fantastic day :)

[Jennie Mann @VolunteerJen]

Why does @parkrunUK work? 'The degree of trust that exists to allow good people to do good stuff with minimal intervention..and what they do is good enough...We sometimes chase consistency needlessly...keep things simple @HelenTimbrell #AVM2019

[Jennie Mann @VolunteerJen]

Be more Parkrun ' there's a really public celebration of the commitment given..as a volunteer you are applauded at the start and you get a local and a national email every time you volunteer . it's also universal across all of Parkruns so it's uber local and global #AVM2019

[Jennie Mann @VolunteerJen]

Be more Parkrun; 'there's instant impact, volunteers literally see and feel the difference they make on a park run' @HelenTimbrell #AVM2019

[Jennie Mann @VolunteerJen]

Be more Parkrun by @HelenTimbrell...What's great about Parkrun?'Their transparency...they have an online wiki, all their documents on how they operate are online, it's really simple, their role profiles are simple, their training is simple...there is a low barrier to entry'
