Partners sought for volunteering programme

volsWe’re looking for partner organisations to receive free training and support during a pilot programme for a new and innovative model for engaging and growing volunteers for arts, charities and museums.

From January to March 2016 Tickbox are providing free support and training to a limited number of organisations to create or build on their Volunteer engagement.  This is part of our Volunteer Makers pilot project to understand demand for the new Volunteer Makers platform before a national roll-out from July 2016.

Volunteer Makers is an online volunteer engagement platform that helps organisations to harness the creative, social and intellectual capital within a volunteer community – adding economic, social and creative value for any organisation, as well as long-term sustainability.

The platform operates as a challenge database, automatically matching volunteer opportunities with skills and allowing extremely flexible levels of volunteering activity to encourage a wider volunteer community. It actively encourages volunteers to take ownership of their own volunteering activity and to help drive and support volunteering across the organisation.

For more information visit the Volunteer Makers website.
