It’s hard to believe that it’s been a full year since the Vision for Volunteering Team started! In this blog we reflect on the year - while also looking ahead to the years to come.

Catch up with our five conferences based on the Vision for Volunteering themes of Awareness & Appreciation, Power, Collaboration, Experimentation and Equity & Inclusion.

Kat Proudman, a volunteer with Emmaus North Staffs, talks about their experiences of inclusive and flexible volunteering to fit around their needs.

Anthony Poldervaart (Senior Encouragement Officer) and Amy Butterworth (CEO) from Make It Happen Birkenhead talk about how they used a methodology called ‘Ripple Effect Mapping’ to help them understand the impact of their work with volunteers.

One of the Vision for Volunteering themes is collaboration, which imagines a future where collaboration is natural and spontaneous, where people do great stuff together because they want to. In this blog piece, Ed Mayo from Pilotlight talks about how they used the idea of collaboration to co-create the UK Pro Bono Association.

Community Reporting is a storytelling method that we’ve been using to hear peoples’ lived experiences of volunteering

Whatever words you choose to describe the difference you make, there are many, many different ways to volunteer - we are here for them all. Collectively, they make the world go round.

A welcome message from the new Vision for Volunteering Team, setting out the challenge ahead and what's to come!
