The Value of Volunteers | S5 EP2 | IN THE BOX - An England Football Podcast
THE VALUE OF VOLUNTEERS
Join us for our latest #InTheBox
Series 05, Episode 02
Time for a new #InTheBox episode, and time to explore the true value of volunteering – not just for grassroots clubs, but for the volunteers themselves.
Join us and discover what volunteering mean to our hosts Ashton United FC, and for its host of volunteers who fill an amazing array of different roles.
You put lots in, you get lots out
You’ll see what makes volunteers gold dust at every level at Ashton United FC. You’ll hear what its band of volunteers get back from the time they put in. We meet club officials, players and of course volunteers who lift the lid on how the club rewards and recognises its volunteers, and the often surprising benefits volunteers receive for their support.
Join us for a warm welcome on a cold night
From sitting in the stand, to being the pitch, to relaxing inside ‘The Crossbar’ – Ashton United’s magnificent social club – we’re given the warmest of welcomes on the coldest of nights, and are embraced by a remarkable community and family. See it all #InTheBox!
