Community Toolkits

Volunteering Tasmania has worked with eight councils and their communities, using a co-design framework, to develop volunteer strategies that are place-based and focused on building a stronger and more sustainable future for volunteering.

As part of the project, resources and tools were developed, including the Kentish Community Toolkit.

The community volunteer strategies offer practical examples of ways to engage and support volunteers in a meaningful experience, one that has value for them and where they can see the value of their impact on the people they volunteer with.

Whilst the volunteer strategies and the toolkit were developed locally with various councils and their respective communities, they can be utilised by other councils, volunteer involving organisations and volunteer managers and coordinators to support and grow volunteering locally.
