Our recent Community Events Management & Planning participants headed to Knockhill for their volunteer placement with Up and Running Events!
@upandrunningevents is a Scottish based events company that welcomes runners of all abilities. Our participants got involved in a range of events management roles such as traffic management, registration and stewarding.
Thank you to Gavin Wilkie-Quinn, Up & Running Events’s General Operations and Events Manager, for providing an industry talk and showing us the ropes.
Our Community Events Programme follows a similar structure to our Introduction to Events Courses but is specifically designed for adults aged 50 and over. The programme focuses on developing skills in community event planning while promoting confidence, social connection and pathways into volunteering or employment.
