To celebrate Volunteers Week 2015, Volunteer Centre Salford organised a pop up market, ran the #SalfordVolunteerSelfie campaign and launched round three of the Volunteer Expenses Fund.
The Volunteering Pop Up Market was a great success helping to promote volunteering in Salford and giving groups the chance to showcase what they do and their volunteering opportunities!
