Themes for the day include:
- The impact of volunteering and the third sector in different settings, including health, wellbeing and the wellbeing economy
- The impact of small community organisations and place-based volunteering
- How does the sector navigate working with the local grassroots communities?
- How to measure the value of the sector and to understand the place of evaluations and measuring impact in the third sector
- The impact of doing research in collaboration with volunteering organisations and the impact of community led research on research values and ethics
