News for Volunteers

Louth Volunteer Centre is delighted to announce the return of its much-loved Voluntine’s Day celebration ,now in its fifth year! On February 14th, our team will set out across County Louth to deliver heartfelt thanks, warm smiles, and special treats to the amazing volunteers who give so much to their communities. We believe there’s no better way to celebrate Valentine’s Day than by recognising the volunteers who pour their hearts into helping others. That’s why we’re inviting Voluntary & Community Organisations to nominate one of their Louth volunteers who deserves a personal visit and a little extra appreciation this year.

Louth Volunteer Centre, in collaboration with Louth Public Participation Network (Louth PPN), is proud to announce the winners of the county’s Volunteer Leader Awards for 2024. This prestigious event took place on November 5th at the Imperial Hotel in Dundalk, coinciding with International Volunteer Managers Day. The awards recognize the invaluable contributions made by volunteer leaders, who empower and inspire others to make a difference in their local community.

On Monday, June 26th 2023, Louth Volunteer Centre held its Annual General Meeting (AGM), marking a significant milestone in the organisation's journey of fostering volunteerism and community engagement. The AGM successfully took place on Zoom, showcasing Louth Volunteer Centre in its commitment to transparency and accountability. The meeting featured the presentation of the annual report and audited accounts, highlighting the incredible impact and collaborative efforts of the organisation over the past year.

Louth Volunteer Centre has launched an exciting new initiative called the Louth Community Sharing Project. This project is aimed at supporting people from migrant backgrounds to connect with their local community through volunteering. The project will bring together both people who have recently arrived in Louth and those who have been living in the area for a long time, to work on a variety of different volunteer projects.
