This section offers information and guidance on recruiting new volunteers to your branch or group, including role profiles for the different roles.
Recruitment support
A great way to recruit new volunteers is through word of mouth of existing volunteers. Through your volunteering activities you'll meet lots of people who are connected to our cause and may be interested in volunteering themselves.
We have created some resources to help you recruit more support volunteers.
We also have some new recruitment posters & flyers which you can use, created using the template centre
