Reaching volunteers isn't a one-size-fits-all thing. The question is, which channels are best to reach that one-of-a-kind volunteer? 💡 It's great to hear Sally Page from Cambridge Council for Voluntary Service talking about how they help foster meaningful connections between volunteers and community groups. 🚧 The challenge: Volunteers aren’t all on the same platform, reading the same newspaper, or engaging through the same channels. To truly connect, Volunteer Cambs needed a multi-channel approach tailored to different audiences. 🛠️ The strategy: They started with Facebook and LinkedIn based on insights from other Deedmob partners, marketing experts, and local knowledge. Facebook: Focused on building a public-facing community, sharing best practices, and driving people to Volunteer Cambs. It’s already the second-highest source of website traffic! LinkedIn: Geared toward supporting voluntary organisations, sharing recruitment guidance, and telling volunteer stories. 🎯 By tailoring content to these audiences, they've created meaningful engagement with both volunteers and the organisations that need them. 💬 How do you adapt your outreach strategies for diverse audiences? Let’s discuss! #volunteerrecruitment #volunteering

"Match your precious time to local good causes" 🎯 ⏳ Time is valuable — and for volunteers, it’s also impactful. Hayley Williams talks about the strapline for Volunteer Cambs to reflect a key insight: volunteers are not just giving their time... they’re creating real change for the causes they support. 💡 Why it matters: The promotion around your volunteer hub or program bridges the gap between recognising a volunteer’s contribution and showcasing the tangible impact they make. It acknowledges the dual value — to the volunteer AND to the community. 🛠️ With this strapline and a clear understanding of the audience, they created a suite of promotional assets tailored to engage potential and current volunteers. This right here is a true best practice on how thoughtful messaging can elevate volunteer engagement strategies. 💬 What strategies have worked for you in engaging volunteers? Let’s exchange ideas below! #volunteerengagement #volunteering

Are you a volunteer? If so, what do you get from it? Why do you do it? It's Volunteers' Week, a time to celebrate and thank those who give their time and talents to help others. And a good time to consider whether there's more that you can do. You'll be improving your own wellbeing, as well as helping others. If you're an employer, do you offer support to your staff who volunteer? Or perhaps you already have a corporate volunteering scheme that you can promote this week. Encourage teamwork, increase morale, and raise your community profile. Search "volunteers week 2024" for more information. #volunteersweek

Consideration when starting a Volunteer program - Part THREE Consideration: Volunteer Recruitment and Retention Attracting the right volunteers is only half the battle; keeping them engaged is equally important. When starting a volunteer program, think about how you’ll recruit and retain volunteers. Offer clear communication, provide meaningful work, and recognize their contributions. Happy volunteers are more likely to stick around and make a lasting impact. How do you keep your volunteers engaged? #VolunteerRecruitment #VolunteerRetention #EngagementStrategies #VolunteerProgram
