Volunteers
We have the opportunity for people looking to volunteer at Spaces to contact Spaces that are in need. If you would like your Space on the volunteer map, please read these guidelines and tick the box below.
If you opt to be on the map, potential volunteers will be able to contact the Space coordinator via email, although your email will not be made public.
Guidelines for Spaces
Get back to volunteering enquiries within one week of receiving them
Work with potential volunteers to draft and sign a volunteer agreement which makes clear what everyone can expect from the experience
Provide appropriate induction and training for volunteers
You should:
Adhere to best practice in regard to safeguarding at all times in relation to volunteers and must have a safeguarding policy in place
Have relevant health and safety procedures in place
Have appropriate insurance in place and meet the requirements set out in your policy
Check the Volunteer is who they say they are by doing a simple identity check e.g. copy of passport or driving licence
Have a clear complaints policy for volunteers in case something goes wrong (N.B neither the Warm Welcome Campaign nor Rotary GB&I is able to mediate any complaints or disputes related to volunteers)
