We know Volunteer-Involving Organisations (VIOs) are always looking for volunteers.
Thanks to The National Lottery Community Fund, here is how we can support you.
Group Volunteering Taster Sessions
- Would you like us to support you to run group volunteer taster sessions, so more people know what it’s like to volunteer for you?
- Do you have clients or members you would like to support into volunteering – we can organise group volunteering taster sessions for them.
Buddying volunteers into roles
We can accompany and stay with a new volunteer until they feel settled and know what to do – we know resources are scarce and this supports you too.
- Do you have volunteers who need a bit more support? Contact us
- Are you open to us introducing a volunteer to your charity or community group or CIC and buddying them at the start? Contact us
Co-design sessions
- Do you have a group of clients or members you would like to support into volunteering?
- We can run group co-design sessions where people can decide together what they’d like to do – and we will do our best to support them to make it happen!
