REMINDER – Deadline extended

Volunteers in the lead aims to provide a space for Chief Volunteers and young volunteers to meet, to network, and to share good practice and ideas both within and between the two groups.

The event builds on networking events held at Regional Conferences when there was a clear desire to find opportunities for these important volunteers to share and mix with their peers.  The event will be held from 30 March to 1 April 2012 at Chalet Geisserei, the national headquarters of Lëtzebuerger Guiden a Scouten in Luxembourg

The event is open to Chief Volunteers accompanied by one youth member aged 18-25.  The youth member should be either already participating in the national decision-making  processes of the organisation or be interested in/planning to do so.
