Clear. Inclusive. Professional. Built for real-world heritage, council, and community teams.
A clear, well-structured handbook sets expectations from day one — covering roles, responsibilities, conduct, safeguarding, and health & safety. It protects both the organisation and the volunteer, reducing confusion and potential liability.
✅ Especially valuable for councils and charities working with vulnerable groups or in public spaces.
Volunteers are more likely to stay committed when they feel informed, supported, and part of something organised. A handbook helps onboard them quickly and gives them something to refer back to — boosting motivation and reducing drop-out.
📈 Especially important for heritage sites and small museums reliant on regular volunteer turnover.
A handbook shows your organisation takes volunteering seriously — it demonstrates professionalism, values inclusivity, and supports accessibility. It can also be bilingual (English and Cymraeg) and tailored to reflect your community.
🌍 Essential for funders, auditors, and public-facing institutions looking to show best practice.
