| About the Volunteer Exchange The Volunteer Exchange has been set up to bring schools and volunteers together. We are developing case studies, please click here for further information. What can the Volunteer Exchange do for schools? We have identified a need in local schools; they have exciting projects they wish to pursue in their grounds and need additional support to get them started. This scheme will help schools achieve their goals by helping them find the manpower to move their initiatives forward. Have a look at our case studies to see how it helped two local schools. What can the Volunteer Exchange do for local business? We are looking for local companies to register with the scheme and invest their employee’s time in the local area. Some schools will only need a few volunteers and others will be looking for larger work parties. The work is varied and may involve digging, weeding or cutting back overgrown bushes. You could help make a real difference in your local community. What to do next To use the Exchange, you will first need to register. To do this, click REGISTER on the menu at the top. Your registration will then be vetted by a Manager before you can view or place requests or offers on the Exchange. If you intend to register your school, please note that the scheme is only available in Peterborough and you will need your DFES number to register. If you would like more information before registering then please contact us. A list of schools who have requested volunteers can be viewed by clicking REQUESTS on the grey menu at the top of this page. A list of organisations and groups who are offering their voluntary services can be viewed by clicking OFFERS. Important note The Volunteer Exchange and its proprietors are not responsible for organising volunteering events, Criminal Records Bureau checks or risk assessments. We are simply providing a means of putting people in touch with each other. |
