What to do if you can’t attend a volunteer activity you signed up for
Who this is for: Volunteers who have already signed up for an activity but later realise they cannot attend or signed up for the wrong schedule.
Why it matters: Letting us know as soon as possible allows the organiser to make adjustments or offer your spot to someone else.
