GLV 2012 Volunteering Legacy: Get set, GO! Event

The London Events Volunteering Calendar grew out of the GLV 2012 Volunteering Legacy project. An event was held in March 2009 to celebrate the successes of the project and identify 2012 volunteering legacy priorities for London.

The event included project highlights, presentations from keynote speakers and themed workshops on sports, arts and culture, environment, events.

Delegates were invited to contribute to a London Volunteering Legacy Time-line and to respond to key questions around the volunteering legacy. Networking and matchmaking opportunities were available throughout the day.
