2023 Wall planners

Planning for 2023? We've put together a wall planner you can download, and print off as many copies your heart desires. It's set up as an A3, but you can always ask your local printer to print it larger for you. It has school holidays, liturgical colours, and special Sunday detail. Enjoy!

Supporting your team

Recruiting Young Leaders
Recruiting and Keeping Young Leaders

Thank you
We put together these printable thank you cards for National Volunteer Week. Print them off one sided, and write a personal note on the back. Drop them off to your volunteers, stuck to their favourite treat.

Safe Practices
We recommend that all your team members are trained in child protection issues and are given tools to recognise child abuse. All team leaders should be trained in how to support their team members, run safe programmes, respond well in emergency situations and ensure safe environments. For more information, see our Safety page
