As #VolunteersWeekScot ends, we’d like to thank everyone for joining us in celebrating volunteers. It's been another fantastic year with so many thank-you messages and inspiring stories shared online. We look forward to next year's campaign - the 40TH YEAR of Volunteers' Week! 🎉
It's #PowerOfYouth day, and with @YouthLinkScot we've published 'Young People and Volunteering Briefing'. In this joint briefing, we explore the policy implications of our recent research and provide various recommendations for MSPs and policy-makers. Read in full here:…
There are many news articles on the cost of living crisis and the impacts to individuals and orgs, but what are the impacts on Volunteering and Volunteers? We've completed a rapid review of evidence to help understand these impacts. Read full report here: ow.ly/tQ3550KUiuP
Important points from @paulmbradley on @BBCRadioScot this morning on the rising costs the sector is facing. We need: ⏱ Funding over multiple years 📈 Funds keeping pace with energy costs and inflation ✔️ A guarantee to pay the full costs of running these public services
Really interesting #bbcgms interview on the impact of rising fuel costs on businesses. Very struck that vol orgs are also facing these increases without the ability to raise prices with customers and don't have £ to support their staff in the way that that business was able to.
Roll on 25 August! Join us - @VolunteerEdi event on including people who are not native speakers of English in volunteering programmes eventbrite.co.uk/e/second-langu… @scotrefcouncil @nateclascotland @EmilyBrysonELT @VolScotland @volunteerglasgo @ScotVolForum @CVSFalkirk @WEAScotland
VS is fully supportive of @JeremyRBalfour proposal to establish a Disability Commissioner. Volunteering offers significant benefits for people who have disabilities but too few are currently accessing these benefits. Read more in our Consultation Response: ow.ly/JG3s50K9gi1

Pleased to be asked to share my thoughts and @CTAUK1 members' concerns about fuel prices, inflation & the #CostOfLivingCrisis with @ThirdForceNews 🗞️ Without action on fair funding & affordable volunteering, many amazing charities and essential services are under threat 🪙

There are many news articles on the cost of living crisis and the impacts to individuals and orgs, but what are the impacts on Volunteering and Volunteers? We've completed a rapid review of evidence to help understand these impacts. Read full report here: ow.ly/tQ3550KUiuP
Civil society/third sector organisations play an utterly invaluable role in helping people and communities across the whole of Scotland. Ensuring adequate, sustainable and long-term funding is an investment in our people and our country. @scvotweet @ALLIANCEScot
Important points from @paulmbradley on @BBCRadioScot this morning on the rising costs the sector is facing. We need: ⏱ Funding over multiple years 📈 Funds keeping pace with energy costs and inflation ✔️ A guarantee to pay the full costs of running these public services

Yesterday @scvotweet & @EdinDogCatHome spoke of the knock-on effect of the cost of living crisis on trading and donations. This new article @ThirdForceNews highlights what’s to come without support for households and voluntary organisations tfn.scot/news/charity-c…
Unlike domestic customers businesses are not subject to energy price caps. That's true of charities and third sector organisations too. They're calling for help over winter as some may have to stop vital services. We'll speak to @scvotweet & @EdinDogCatHome #bbcgms 0745
Really interesting #bbcgms interview on the impact of rising fuel costs on businesses. Very struck that vol orgs are also facing these increases without the ability to raise prices with customers and don't have £ to support their staff in the way that that business was able to.
