We’re continuing to explore different ways to help our volunteers connect at COVEY. Thank you so much to the volunteers who came along to Langloch Farm in Lanark recently. It was so lovely to chat over some coffees and cakes!

We’re already looking forward to the next one! We’ll be in touch soon with more details on this.

Lisa has been volunteering with COVEY for over 3 years, which has given her the opportunity to work one-to-one with two young people.

She currently volunteers in our Intandem project and recently shared some of the challenges she’s faced and the wonderful rewards volunteering has brought to her life.

We’ve introduced brand new Volunteer Welcome Sessions and completely refreshed our Volunteer Training!

We welcomed 9 lovely new volunteers through our first new training sessions and are excited to get our next Welcome Session underway this week!

Can you spare some time to help COVEY promote volunteer opportunities?  Ewan, our Volunteer Development Officer, is looking for volunteers to help him at promotional stalls. Even if it is just for an hour, Ewan would be grateful .

“Too many children and families across Scotland face disadvantage shaped by circumstances entirely out of their control. Being able to contribute, even in a small way, to reducing that inequality means a great deal to me.”

Did you spot us in the news? We’ve been spreading the word about our new funding secured for the CashBack project, which will begin soon. We’ve also been appealing for new volunteers to join us at COVEY.

COVEY recently supported young people to attend FARE as part of our GROW project. This was a great session, giving the young people a chance to learn all about youth work and its impact. They then had great fun, taking part in team building and enjoying some of the activities offered through the youth work programmes.

GROW is designed to give young people meaningful routes into work, connecting them with employers and allowing them to gain hands-on experience of their work in practice.

We’re proud to play a vital part in delivering these opportunities.
