It is with great pleasure that TeamKinetic can announce they are now the volunteer platform for Greater Sport. Working with the County Sports Partnership to extend our hugely successful work with Manchester City Council. Greater Sport requested a volunteer service that offered the people of Greater Manchester more choice whilst allowing the Local Authorities a level of local administration and control.

As a County Sports Partnership, Greater Sport had identified how successful Manchester City Council had been in recruiting and deploying Volunteers both for their clubs and their major events program. They identified how as a CSP area volunteers could benefit from seamless sharing of volunteer opportunities across the Local Authorities whilst also providing the level of local insight demanded by the ten local authorities of Greater Manchester.

This did pose a number of major technical challenges, as each Local Authority had different requirements and were able to offer significantly different levels of support to their volunteers. TeamKinetic worked closely with GreaterSport to develop a workable solution and we are proud to announce our Pilot volunteer platform project is up and running with plans for a much wider rollout early into the new year.

It is ours and Greater Sport’s belief, that this new volunteer platform will allow the generous and sports-mad people of Greater Manchester to access some of the finest events and clubs the UK has to offer.

Join In and ITV use TeamKinetic to power their volunteer recruitment for World Cup event fever pitch.

250 volunteers have contributed more than 5000 volunteering hours in 25 World Cup days.

London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic legacy charity Join In have been working with ITV to provide volunteer support for their major summer of sport.

‘Fever Pitch’ is ITV’s flagship World Cup community programme, using the power of their coverage from Brazil, alongside some of the world’s finest international beach soccer teams to inspire more than 2,000 kids and community members from around Manchester to be active this summer.

ITV have brought a flavour of Copacabana to the old Granada Studios with a 3,000 capacity arena, samba dancing and a real beach right in the middle of the city.

Join In are the home of the London 2012 ‘Games Makers’ and their volunteers have a reputation for making grassroots sports events extra special. Supporting local children and young people during the day get a taste of playing on the beach and then in the evening bringing the Brazil in spirit to life.

As the event is running for 25 days, it required lots of motivated volunteers. Join In approached Manchester City Council who already have a very successful Volunteer program – the Manchester VSB – which is powered by TeamKinetic.

TeamKinetic worked with Join In to build an area of the VSB that allowed them to recruit and manage their Volunteers, using social media and an SMS campaign to recruit over 250 individuals in less than one month.

Dom Streeter Head of Campaigns at Join In said:

“We’d like to extend a huge thanks to TeamKinetic. Chris and his team have been superb to work with on this project – reliable, helpful and on hand with valuable local insight. Most importantly, they have delivered, in what was a very short turnaround time.

The 250 volunteers recruited have helped us power ITV Fever Pitch and the many thousands who’ve attended this event have had a wonderful experience because of their enthusiasm, dedication and sense of fun.”

Alnowair have a noble goal, to make people feel more positive. They want people to make the right choices about themselves and how they want to feel. They believe that we all have the seed of positivity within us and with the right support we can make the right decisions and help to make Kuwait an even better place to live. Here at TeamKinetic HQ, we share these views and salute the wonderful work Alnowair undertake, we understand how by giving a little of yourself can help to make you feel better whilst making your community stronger and a nicer place to live.

It is with great pleasure then that we can announce the partnership between Alnowair and TeamKinetic. Alnowair have a fantastic history of volunteering. As the organisation has grown, they have identified a need: a better way to manage, deploy and reward their amazing volunteers. TeamKinetic seemed like a perfect fit.

TeamKinetic has signed up to provide Alnowair with a cutting-edge Volunteer Management system that can grow and develop as they grow and develop as an organisation.

“Having the opportunity to work with Alnowair and develop our product for use in the middle east has be fantastic. They are a great group of people who embody what they are trying to share. Developing a site that combines English and Arabic has proven to be a little tricky, but we hope that VolunteerKinetic will encourage even more people to give their time to the great work Alnowair undertake.”

With the development now complete, Alnowair are about to launch, so watch this space for updates and opportunities from Kuwait.
