Volunteering
Staff and volunteers are an organisations most valuable asset. Both should be provided with clear induction information and a training programme plus volunteering policy and awareness of other related policies.
| The National Council of Voluntary Organisations (NCVO) offers a range of guidance on volunteering and volunteer recruitment and management. Go to Your Team in the KnowHow Knowledge Bank. |
| The Charity Commission has guidance on how to recruit and manage volunteers for your charity as well as the vetting process, paying expenses, role descriptions and insurance. |
| Take part in Volunteers Week, an annual event to celebrate and say thank you to everyone who volunteers. You will need to register with the site to get access to resources to support your week. |
| Charity Digital has a white paper that can be downloaded on How to find volunteers online |
