Coordinating Volunteer - Your Role

This page outlines your roles, responsibilities and boundaries as a coordinating volunteer. It also provides your role specific training to give you the opportunity to refresh your memory when needed.

Listen

Coordinating Volunteer Role Description (PDF)

Coordinating Volunteers play a key role in building up a relationship with and supporting a small group of up to 10 local volunteer visitors. Download the role description to find out more information about being a Coordinating Volunteer.

Coordinating Volunteer Boundaries (PDF)

These are the volunteering role boundaries we have put in place based on experience of what works well to develop a happy and fulfilling volunteering relationship. The boundaries provide a framework for everyone to understand what is and isn’t included in the volunteering role and to protect the volunteer from being asked to do something outside their role.

Coordinating Volunteer Training (PDF)

The coordinating volunteer training covers areas such as common issues affecting older people, understanding your role further, familiarising yourself with other volunteering roles at Independent Age, issues that arise in supporting older people and how to record and report on information as part of your role. Please refer to the process, forms and templates section on the right hand-side of this page for supporting documents for your role and training.
