We support and promote volunteering and we work both with people who want to be volunteers and with the organisations who rely on them. By registering your organisation with the Volunteer Centre you will have access to a wide range of supports and services.
To take advantage of our free services you should register your organisation via the ivol.ie website.
List an opportunity on ivol.ie website and on Waterford Volunteer Centre website. This is a free service.
If Garda Vetting is something that you are required to do we can help. Read about it here. Fees apply.
The Volunteer Trustee Development Network supports the work of volunteer trustees and directors.
A Volunteer Policy is the main foundation that all the other building blocks for volunteering sit on. Your policy will outline clearly to all staff, volunteers and users of the service, why volunteers are involved. Also, if you’re thinking about involving volunteers for the first time it’s a great place to start so you can think through all aspects of involving volunteers.
A Volunteer Role Description tells potential volunteers all they need to know about the opportunity to work with your organisation. Writing one makes you think about exactly what the role should be, and is a useful exercise to do before advertising any volunteer role. You can download a template that will assist you to include all the relevant and necessary information. You will need this information to post an opportunity online.
