On Thursday afternoon I was in the grand surroundings of the Treasury and HM Revenue and Customs building on Parliament Street in London – the new home of the Cabinet Office – for a meeting of the European Year of Volunteering 2011 working group. As well as a general update on the progress of European Year of Volunteering activities, we heard presentations from Volunteering England and Volunteer Centre Warrington on the specific strands of work focussing on employer-supported volunteering and volunteer management. We also discussed the details of the European Year of Volunteering Tour event which will take place at the Coin Street Community Centre, just off the South Bank in London, from 28 October until 3 November.
