We involve volunteers because they are motivated, have fun helping and tell us it lets them give something back to the community. Volunteers are crucial to Brae.
Mary Sneddon, Centre Manager,
Brae RDA Partnership (Riding for the Disabled).
With Borders, East Ayrshire and West Lothian now licensed to deliver the Volunteer Friendly Award and interface staff gearing up to work with groups in these areas, it's now possible for organisations and groups in 23 Scottish Local Authority areas to achieve the Volunteer Friendly Award. To date, there are 104 Volunteer Friendly groups and organisations in Scotland.
"Having achieved the award, I think it makes it easier to encourage potential new volunteers as it is becoming more recognised locally as a good quality standard."
