We are excited to announce that TeamKinetic is now a Trusted Partner of Volunteer Scotland!
Our partnership with Volunteer Scotland has been ongoing now for a number of years, but this new status names us as a Trusted Partner and coincides with the launch of their Knowledge Gateway (more on that later!).
Volunteer Scotland serves as the national centre for volunteering in Scotland, driven by a mission to boost not only volunteering numbers, but the quality of the volunteer experience too.
We are thrilled to take this next step in our ongoing commitment to supporting the voluntary sector. We are also thrilled to be the first volunteer management provider to be named as a Trusted Partner!
The Knowledge Gateway
Volunteer Scotland have also just launched the Knowledge Gateway. This is a central hub that provides practical guidance, training, and resources to help develop, promote, and strengthen volunteering across the nation.
It’s designed to empower volunteer-involving organisations and create the conditions where volunteering can truly thrive.
“The Knowledge Gateway marks a strategic step forward for volunteering in Scotland. By bringing together high-quality guidance, training, and shared learning from Volunteer Scotland and a range of Trusted Partners and Public Information Providers we are strengthening the foundation that supports volunteers and the organisations they power.”
Rosie Wylie, Deputy CEO and Head of Innovation & Operations at Volunteer Scotland
It includes information on:
- TSIs & Advertising Opportunities
- Practice Guidance & Information
- Training and Events
- Quality Standards & Principles
- National Employer Supported Volunteering (ESV) Framework
- Bespoke Support and Development Service
- Trusted Partners (like us!)
We highly encourage all volunteer managers, especially those in Scotland, to explore the Knowledge Gateway and gain access to fantastic tools, insights, and support.
Being a Trusted Partner
We are incredibly proud to have been accepted into the Trusted Partner scheme. The purpose of the scheme is to promote high-quality support, services, and expertise provided by external organisations to volunteer-involving groups through the Knowledge Gateway.
As a Trusted Partner, TeamKinetic actively supports Volunteer Scotland’s mission and aligns with their core values. Our working relationship with Volunteer Scotland also helps us understand the specific needs of our Scottish users and stay up to date on volunteering trends across the nation.
Through this partnership, Volunteer Scotland will host and maintain a dedicated space for TeamKinetic on the Knowledge Gateway. This will make it easier than ever for Scottish organisations to discover our practical tools designed to help you connect with your volunteers. Furthermore, this partnership creates new opportunities for us to offer exclusive discounts to Volunteer Scotland members and stakeholders.
