Lincolnshire Volunteers Programme – Link launch!

Voluntary Centre Services (VCS) alongside Lincolnshire Community and Voluntary Service (LCVS) and Lincolnshire Voluntary Engagement Team (LVET) and our digital partner Team Kinetic, is launching the Lincolnshire Volunteers Programme (LVP); a new digital platform supporting volunteering across the county.

 If you are currently advertising opportunities through LCVS and/or VCS you will need to register your organisation and opportunities onto the new platform as it will become the primary way that LCVS and VCS advertise volunteering opportunities across the county. You will only need to register once even if your organisation covers both VCS and LCVS areas.  The platform is completely free for volunteer-involving organisations to use.

 Registration Link: https://lincolnshirevolunteers.teamkinetic.co.uk/volunteers/registration-provider

 We are here to support you with the registration process. If you need any help to register your organisation and opportunities or have any questions, please contact Abbi Taylor: abbi@voluntarycentreservices.org.uk

 Please find a Quick Start guide to registering on the new platform as well as a presentation with some additional details, and a PowerPoint presentation.

 As well as helping Lincolnshire to be a county where community matters, with volunteering at its heart and where everybody’s contribution is valuable the Lincolnshire Volunteers Programme will help:

1. People to contribute to society, gain a sense of purpose or lead to employment through providing access to a wide range of volunteering opportunities
2. Organisations provide a positive and supportive volunteer experience that is flexible to new initiatives and challenges
3. Increase access to a range of volunteering opportunities and attract new volunteers
4. Create supportive relationships, reconnecting people into their local communities and overcoming loneliness and social isolation

Organisations across Lincolnshire will be able to use the Lincolnshire Volunteers Programme to advertise their volunteering opportunities for free across the county, along with several other benefits:

• their own public profile page within the platform, linking to their opportunities
• the ability to self-manage opportunities and their content
• the ability to self-manage their profile information
• a volunteer management space
• reporting and analysis of any volunteering activity linked to that organisation
