Volunteers make an invaluable contribution throughout the Scottish Borders, supporting local projects, strengthening community connections and helping organisations thrive. This event is an opportunity to recognise and celebrate the individuals whose time, commitment and generosity make such a positive difference.

Borders Community Action invites member organisations to nominate volunteers for consideration as part of our Volunteer Recognition Event. Information shared through this form will help us identify volunteers to be recognised and plan the event accordingly. Please note that submitting a nomination does not guarantee attendance at the event, as places are limited.

The event will take place at Duns Volunteer Hall on Thursday 4th June, beginning at 6.30pm for a 7.00pm start. The evening will include a finger buffet, an opportunity to celebrate volunteer achievements and a Cèilidh band and dancing.

We appreciate the time taken to submit a nomination and thank you for helping us highlight the vital role volunteers play in our communities.

By submitting this form, you confirm that you have obtained consent from the nominated volunteer to share their personal information with Borders Community Action for the purpose of organising and promoting the Volunteer Recognition Event.

Borders Community Action will process this information in accordance with the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018. Personal data will be used only for event management, communication, and - where consent has been given - public recognition of volunteers.

Information will be stored securely and retained only for as long as necessary. You may request access, correction or deletion of data at any time by contacting us.
