Safeguarding for volunteer managers

This NCVO guide sets out the safeguarding responsibilities of volunteer managers and walks through each stage of the volunteer lifecycle: planning a safeguarding policy, safer recruitment principles, creating and advertising roles, onboarding, and ongoing support. It also addresses how to recognise safeguarding opportunities and risks when a volunteering relationship ends. Freely accessible, it is a practical reference for anyone managing volunteers in a civil society organisation.
