What is the Experts by Experience Advisory Group?
The Experts by Experience Advisory Group is open to young people and volunteers with experience of the Independent Visitor relationship.
The group will will share its insight and experience with the National IV Network team to help guide our work. This could be in the area of influencing the government to make IV better recognised or by working on exciting social media campaigns to promote volunteering.
