This is an introductory level course

The Volunteer Fayre was a Partnership event between Dorset Community Action and Volunteer Centre Dorset in June 2023. This presentation was done by Paula Bennetts of DCA.

Really interesting training, thank you" Participant at Volunteer Fayre.

This session will cover:

  • What is a “trustee”?
  • Who can and can’t be a Trustee?
  • What does it involve? 
  • What do Trustees do – and what don’t they do?
  • What are Trustees responsible for?


It is suitable for anyone thinking about volunteering with a charity sector organisation.
