Our role in the sector
We play an active role in shaping the future of volunteering across the UK. By working alongside partners, networks and sector-wide initiatives such as Vision for Volunteering, we help ensure that volunteering remains inclusive, impactful and rooted in the needs of communities.
Vision for Volunteering
Volunteering Matters has worked alongside charities, volunteers, public bodies and the private sector to create the Vision for Volunteering.
The Vision for Volunteering, sets out principles for a diverse, innovative, sustainable, ambitious and person-centred future for volunteering in England.
The Vision outlines what’s needed to ensure volunteering can continue to make a big impact for the next decade – and beyond. Hundreds of people and organisations contributed to the Vision through workshops, interviews and submitting evidence.
The 10-year strategy has been led by 5 partner organisations; Volunteering Matters, National Council for Voluntary Organisations (NCVO), Association of Volunteer Managers (AVM), National Association for Voluntary and Community Action (NAVCA) and Sport England.
