Please note: please bear in mind that this recruitment leaflet has been created for a specific organisation in a specific context, and should therefore be used as a guide rather than adopted wholesale. For further information, please visit our 'top tips on using the Good Practice Bank'.

We love this leaflet!

• Because it has been written in a very personnable style and really invites you to volunteer at York Cab.
• Because it contains a list of quotes from current volunteers explaining why they enjoy what they do, and reassuring others about potential worries to do with skills, support or physical accessibility.
• Because it communicates lots of essential information such as contact details and York CAB's mission statement in a clear and concise manner.
• Because it's a good example of how you can design recruitment materials and use humour to suit a specific audience, (in this case, older and retired people).
