National Volunteer Week 2020: My Volunteer Experience

Volunteer Week 18 - 24 May 
Connecting Up would like to take this opportunity to thank our volunteers for their contribution to SAcommunity and community services in South Australia.

Our volunteers assist us to update the 15,000 community service listings on our directory in association with our council and library partners and editors across the state to help people, services and councils to connect with each other.

Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic and transitioning to remote working
To comply with social distancing, many companies and organisations are transitioning to a remote workforce. This can be a challenge for those who have not managed a distributed workforce before.
