Herefordshire Vennture Volunteer Week 2024

šŸŒŸ Volunteer Week at Vennture: Celebrating Our Community Heroes! šŸŒŸ
From June 3rd to June 9th, weā€™re spotlighting our incredible volunteers who make a difference every day. Without their unwavering support, Vennture couldnā€™t ignite positive change in our community. Letā€™s take a moment to appreciate their dedication and impact:

ā€¢ Street Pastors, our longest-running volunteers within Vennture, Patrol the streets of Herefordshire in the night-time economy on a Friday and/or Saturday night. Working closely with West Mercia Police, independent businesses and security staff to provide safety and reassurance to those who need it.
ā€¢ Lean on Me Volunteers: These compassionate individuals are a vital part of enabling Vennture to ā€˜Love People Betterā€™. Proving a safe space for supervised recovery, a listening ear, or ensuring safety, they go above and beyond to assist the Street Pastor in making sure people ā€˜Have a good time an come home safeā€™
ā€¢ Ambassadors: Our Ambassadors assist during the day on Herefordā€™s streets, aiding those who are lost, unwell, or in need of a little support. With welcoming smiles, our volunteers contribute to the cityā€™s inviting atmosphere and supporting the independent businesses, making it a more enjoyable place for all.
ā€¢ Twilight Ambassadors are teams of trained volunteers who will patrol the streets of Hereford City on Saturday evenings from 7 pm to 11 pm, providing a reassuring presence. They will coordinate with the Vennture Street Pastors to ensure a continuous presence throughout the night.
ā€¢ Ross on Wye Ambassadors: Working closely with our Hereford Street Team, the ambassadors patrol Ross Streets. Being a welcoming presence, aiding those in need who are lost, unwell or in need of a little support or signposting from 9pm-1am.
