2011 is the European Year of the Volunteer. The Clare Volunteer Centre and Ennis Chamber are looking forward to this year as an opportunity to work with both the business community and voluntary sector to acknowledge and recognise the volunteers of County Clare.
With the support of Clare County Council, Ennis Town Council and the Clare Local Development Company the Clare Volunteer Discount Card has been launched, enabling volunteers to access a range of discounts and special offers from businesses across the county for 2011 – the European Year of the Volunteer.
Volunteers now more than ever are a vital support to our communities. This scheme is the first of its kind in the country and it is hoped that with the national publicity accompanying the European Year of the Volunteer Clare can be showcased as a county who recognise and acknowledges the valuable contributions that all volunteers bring.
