This guide is intended to be a reminder to organisations
that volunteers add immense value to the charity and faith
sectors. This makes an important contribution in a variety
of roles including administrative support, helping at events,
marketing, befriending, visiting the sick and assuming responsibility
as a trustee. It is important to identify and correctly match
the skills of a volunteer to a meaningful role within the organisation
and/or to create an organisational culture that recognises
the value, supports and develops the volunteers involved in
their work.
Volunteering is a two way process and is most successful
when care is taken:
- To identify what each party aims to achieve from each
volunteering role. - By the organisation to develop processes to ensure all
round satisfaction.
