What’s happening at Southern Volunteering…
Discussing The Decline
Volunteer recruitment is one of the biggest challenges facing volunteer-involving organisations (VIOs) today. This timely resource unpacks why volunteer numbers are proving difficult to grow, and what can be done about it.
Developed from extensive interviews, forums and surveys with VIOs, and supported by state and national research, Discussing The Decline shines a light on what’s changed and the impacts on the volunteering sector. Most importantly, it offers fresh, practical ideas to help VIOs adapt their volunteer opportunities and connect with the potential volunteers of 2025.
