Volunteers' Week (1-7 June) is the UK's annual celebration of the work volunteers do. It plays a huge part in raising the the profile of volunteers across the UK.
During Volunteers' Week events are held across Scotland and the UK, to recognise, reward and recruit volunteers to publicly thank volunteers and highlight their contribution to local communities.
At the same time individuals are encouraged to to find out more about volunteering.
It's up to you and your organisation to decide how you want to join in the celebration
