Shaping Scotland’s New Volunteer Development Network
Created: 28/09/2026
Volunteer Scotland is developing a new Volunteer Development Network to support people who coordinate, organise and manage volunteers to connect, share learning and identify the support that would make the biggest difference.
Feedback from Volunteer Scotland’s training and events with volunteer-involving organisations, alongside recent Bridging the Participation Gap roundtables with stakeholders from across the sector, has highlighted the need for more opportunities for volunteer organisers to come together and learn from one another. The network will be shaped by the people it is designed to support, including paid volunteer organisers and those who organise volunteers on a voluntary basis.
Join this workshop to share your experiences, explore what support would be most valuable and help shape a member-led Volunteer Development Network that strengthens volunteering across Scotland.
