CVS #Volunteeroes, Volunteers' Week Showcase – A call for entries

To celebrate Volunteers' Week 2021 (1st-7th June), we at CVS want to showcase the work, and the impact volunteers have had in our Cheshire East community over the last 12 months. At the best of times, volunteers are vital to the community and during the pandemic, they have been nothing less than absolute heroes.

In this social media-driven showcase, we want to thank and celebrate the heroes supporting local organisations, recognise their amazing selfless support, and encourage others to become volunteers themselves to help services re-open and recover as social restrictions lift.

We'll be looking to produce a series of videos comprising photos, stories, testimonies, social media posts and more that will help tell the story of the volunteers in our community. We would like to include as many volunteers in the showcase as we can.

If you know a volunteer or group of volunteers you wish to thank or have a story about how volunteers have supported you during the national crisis, please visit the CVS website at www.cvsce.org.uk and enter your story in the CVS Volunteers' Week Volunteeroes Showcase.
