The Vision for Volunteering explores how volunteering must adapt and evolve over the next ten years.
About us
The Vision for Volunteering is a ten-year vision that sets out how volunteering must adapt and evolve in the years to come. It explores how volunteering is changing in a changing world, what volunteers really need to be able to make their most effective contributions and how we tackle some of volunteering's most long-standing inequalities. It tackles five key themes - awareness and appreciation of volunteering; power; equity and inclusion; collaboration; and experimentation.

This week is National Inclusion Week 📢 Let's highlight what we're striving for via our theme of Equity and Inclusion ⬇ "A future where it’s easy for people to give their time and energy to the causes they care about, they feel welcomed, and the benefits are equally distributed." Considering how this should feel for volunteers is vital. By 2032 we want to hear statements like... ➡"Wherever I chose to volunteer, I’m confident that I will be welcome and won’t experience discrimination." ➡"I am supported to have full access to volunteering opportunities." ➡"I’m confident that if I raise concerns about discrimination or inequity that I will be taken seriously by others." https://lnkd.in/gJtaxPjT For all of you involving and supporting volunteers, what might improved Equity and Inclusion feel like for you? Share your thoughts below... #VisionForVolunteering #ImpactMatters

One of the five themes of the Vision for Volunteering is collaboration. This means that we want to see a future where collaboration is natural and spontaneous, and people do great stuff together because they want to. 🙌 In the spirit of this theme, our friends and partners at Department for Culture, Media and Sport along with Policy Lab UK would like to invite you to participate in an online Collective Intelligence Debate on how the UK government can support partnerships and engagement that support volunteering. This is taking place over this week (16-23 September) 🗓 The project aims to explore how various parts of the volunteering system—government, public, private, and voluntary sectors—collaborate and how these relationships can be better supported. Engage as much or as little as you like - around 1 hour total over the week - where you'll vote on short statements and share your ideas anonymously 💡 If you have anything at all to do with supporting volunteering, you are invited to get involved in the discussion: whether you’re a volunteer-involver, community group, activist, trustee, funder, social enterprise, infrastructure organisation, researcher, local authority, government, volunteer centre, influencer, student, charity leader, event organiser, helper, CVS, youth leader or more!
