We knew many Time to Shine delivery partners were able to reduce social isolation and loneliness only because they were working with volunteers. The Time to Shine team wanted to find out how this was working. It’s an important part of our legacy to be able to share that learning with other organisations who might be undertaking similar projects in the future.
In order to make best use of this information we have are creating a range of publications, starting with this report – The value of working with volunteers on Time to Shine projects.
It will be followed by a toolkit identifying practical tips on how to get the best out of volunteer supported programmes – drawn from information from the projects who have worked with Time to Shine, and case studies reflecting on what happened in different projects.
Download The value of working with volunteers on Time to Shine projects. Keep an eye out for the toolkit and case studies.
