Lived experience and inclusive volunteering with MIEACT

In this webinar, we continue our focus on lived experience and inclusive volunteering. Guest speakers from MIEACT will discussed how lived experience sits at the heart of how they operate, and how they have supported this in their volunteering program and beyond. 

This webinar is part of our series designed to support the National Strategy's aims of hosting forums to enhance collaboration and knowledge-sharing around inclusive volunteering (Action Item 5).
