As the Volunteer Centre for the London Borough of Bromley, Community Links Bromley provides support to volunteer-involving organisations and provides volunteering advice for residents.
- We can support you through offering volunteer management advice and promoting your organisation's volunteer roles via our online volunteer database.
- We deliver bitesize volunteer management workshops/training throughout the year
- We deliver volunteer management forums, where you will have the opportunity to network with other Volunteer Managers, share ideas and best practice.
- We host an annual volunteer awards ceremony to celebrate Bromley's volunteers.
- We will be hosting volunteer involvement fairs – this will be a combination of on-line and face to face. These fairs are a perfect way for organisations to meet potential volunteers.

Help us improve our services to volunteer involving organisations
For several years CLB has hosted Bromley's Volunteer Co-ordinators' Network which is a forum for individuals who recruit, supervise or manage volunteers.
CLB wants to review this forum to ensure it still meets the needs of its members and we would really appreciate it if you could complete this short survey:
Your input could make a difference to how the Network is structured in the future and the subject matters that are discussed and shared.
