Care Home Week: the Volunteer Quality Standard

Care Home Week: the Volunteer Quality Standard

Investing in Volunteers (IiV) and Investing in Volunteer for Employers are the UK’s quality standards for organisations within all sectors who have an interest in volunteer participation.

Through these quality frameworks, organisations will be given the opportunity to explore their current volunteer programme against national best practice. This will create an organisation’s volunteer baseline from which to develop and explore new ways to deliver their volunteer programmes and volunteer participation.

Recent participants within the learning and development programme have been: Church of Scotland, Children’s Hearing Scotland, Police Scotland, a number of Health Boards, Heath Improvement Services, The Scottish Parliament, Scottish Drugs Forum, Children’s Hospice Scotland and Scotrail.
