The theme for National Volunteering Week 2021 (17th – 23rd May) is Small Actions, Big Impact. National Volunteering Week celebrates the immense impact of volunteers throughout the county, inspiring others to volunteer along the way. The week will be a showcase of small ways people can make a difference, both to their local community and their own wellbeing.
"This National Volunteering Week, we're asking people to think small! Whether it's an action you can take to support your community like picking up litter or just being there for someone in your community that’s not feeling great about the current restrictions, even the smallest acts can have a big impact. The last year has been hard on us all, but there are small things we can do for ourselves, and for each other, that make a big difference," explains Offaly Volunteer Centre Manager, Deirdre Fox.
