The Stroke Association's relationship with volunteers
We have set out what volunteers can expect from The Stroke Association, and what we expect from our volunteers.
From The Stroke Association:
- to celebrate success and recognise your loyalty and dedication
- to recognise that successful volunteering incorporates your motivations, aspirations and choices
- to respect you as a volunteer, listen and learn from what you have to say, consistently encouraging two-way communication
- to attempt to match the needs of the charity with your skills, knowledge, experience and motivation as a volunteer
- to ensure that our volunteers do so safely. Your health and welfare is paramount whilst volunteering for The Stroke Association
- to foster a friendly and supportive atmosphere - making volunteering for The Stroke Association fun.
From our volunteers:
- to maintain and uphold the reputation of The Stroke Assocation
- to aim for high standards of efficiency, reliability and quality in all aspects of your volunteering with us
- to co-operate with our staff members, to listen and learn from what they have to say to achieve the aims of the charity
- to respect the need for confidentiality whenever you have access to controlled information
- to take reasonable care of your own health and safety whilst volunteering, and that of others who may be affected by your actions
- to encourage two-way communication with other volunteers and paid staff, fostering a pleasant and friendly atmosphere.
