Six Questions to Ask Before You Volunteer
A thoughtful volunteer considers programme need, role fit, time, supervision, safeguarding and the value their contribution can create.
Is the role needed?
The strongest opportunities begin with a defined programme need rather than a volunteer’s preferred activity.
Can I commit responsibly?
Be honest about availability, relevant skills and the support you will require.
How will people be protected?
Understand conduct, privacy, safeguarding and reporting expectations before participating.
