Unconscious bias training helps individuals recognise the automatic judgments they make without realising it, often shaped by personal experiences, cultural messages and societal norms.
By increasing awareness of these hidden biases, people can make fairer, more inclusive decisions and interact more thoughtfully with others.
For volunteers, this awareness is especially valuable: it helps them build stronger relationships within diverse communities, treat service users with greater empathy and respect, and create welcoming environments where everyone feels valued. Ultimately, unconscious bias training supports volunteers in delivering more equitable, effective and compassionate support.
This is a free, online Q&A webinar. Come along to ask an insurance adviser about all of those little questions around volunteering.... What type of insurance do I need? How do I know my volunteers are definitely covered? Am I covered by another group's insurance?
