What is a Volunteer Handbook, and Why Does Our Organisation Need Them?
A volunteer handbook contains a comprehensive summary of all information volunteers will need to know. This acts as a point of reference and a guide to volunteering with your organisation.
Does this Volunteer Handbook need to be updated?
When any organisational changes are made, the volunteer handbook should be updated to reflect these changes. We recommend that you review your volunteer handbook annually, alongside other organisational procedures and policies.
How do I Write a Volunteer Handbook?
We have created a checklist of what should be included in your volunteer handbook – this list is not exhaustive, so consider what would be important for volunteers at your organisation to know.
