Find new ideas for your future work together
These pages will give Volunteer Centres, governing bodies of sport, county sports partnerships and local sport organisations ideas about how to work together to get the very best from sport volunteering.
There is no one right way of working together and each example is different.
The Volunteering England sport volunteering work is giving information, policy and strategic advice to organisations in local areas to improve volunteering in sport. Many local areas are also developing on their own ways of engaging to improve volunteering in sport.
Find out where Volunteer Centres are already working with sport. Keep visiting these pages, as there are always new funded sport volunteering projects starting.
The benefits of sharing your case studies
Volunteering England is currently targeting our information at regional level through Sport England and the county sports partnerships, and Sports Volunteering North West and nationally through National Governing Bodies of sport and Sport England (so everyone's saying the same thing!).
This means that local sport clubs and organisations and Volunteer Centres can all soon know who eachother are, and what eachother does.
It will also mean a rise in joint working - we'll keep you informed when we hear about new partnerships across the country.
For further information on both types of organisation, see the links on the right hand side of this page.
Tell us about your work together
We are particularly looking for examples of where grass roots organisations are working with Volunteer Centres to improve their volunteering.
Volunteering England and Volunteer Centres working with sport
Locally, Volunteer Centres and sport organisations are working together to improve sport volunteering; nationally, Volunteering England is working with sport.
This engagement is helping to integrate local communities; improve individual skills and training; increase the numbers of volunteers in sport and improve sport provision and quality in England.
