A new volunteer centre is to open in Leitrim which will provide a placement service between individuals and groups who want to volunteer and organisations that are seeking to involve volunteers.
It will be based at The Education Centre in Carrick-on-Shannon with staff available to meet groups and volunteers throughout the County on an outreach basis.
The centre will also provide training, Garda vetting, advice and supports to volunteer organisations. Funding for the establishment of the new centres came from the Dormant Action Plan, and ongoing funding support will be provided from the Department’s Volunteering Supports budget.
