Supported by the NHS Scotland Volunteering Programme Team, the survey aimed to provide consistent data to demonstrate the positive impact of volunteers within the healthcare system. With 251 responses from staff across 46 locations, the findings form part of the NHS Scotland Volunteer Impact Series, highlighting the benefits volunteers bring to both staff and patients.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/teamkinetic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/blog-image-84.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15518\" width=\"750\" height=\"375\" srcset=\"https:\/\/teamkinetic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/blog-image-84.png 1000w, https:\/\/teamkinetic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/blog-image-84-300x150.png 300w, https:\/\/teamkinetic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/blog-image-84-768x384.png 768w, https:\/\/teamkinetic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/blog-image-84-900x450.png 900w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>The survey revealed that 99% of respondents believe that involving volunteers is worth the time investment. Notably, 69% of staff reported reduced stress levels due to volunteer involvement, and many observed improvements in patient care, communication, and overall well-being. These findings reinforce the value of volunteers in enhancing healthcare outcomes, and recommendations include sharing the report widely and integrating the survey into an annual assessment of volunteer impact across NHS Scotland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hisengage.scot\/equipping-professionals\/volunteering-in-nhs-scotland\/evidence-of-impact\/nhs-staff-perspectives-on-volunteer-impact\/?utm_source=teamkinetic&amp;utm_medium=blog&amp;utm_campaign=teamkinetic_newsletter\">Read the full report here.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How charities can embrace the micro-volunteering trend<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Micro-volunteering is on the rise, with many volunteers, especially younger ones, seeking flexible, short-term opportunities rather than committing to regular shifts. This shift is reshaping how charities engage with volunteers, who now prefer to contribute on their own terms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To adapt, many charities are offering more flexible options, like taster sessions, allowing people to volunteer for an hour or two without a long-term commitment. This not only attracts a broader range of volunteers but also allows them to bring unique skills and fresh perspectives, benefiting both the charity and the volunteers themselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.civilsociety.co.uk\/voices\/sarah-boardman-how-charities-can-embrace-the-micro-volunteering-trend.html?utm_source=teamkinetic&amp;utm_medium=blog&amp;utm_campaign=teamkinetic_newsletter\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Read the full article now.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Other stories:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"color: #002133;\"><a style=\"color: #9ed9b0;\" href=\"https:\/\/teamkinetic.co.uk\/blog\/2024\/09\/teamtalk-september\/2\/?utm_source=newsletter&#038;utm_medium=blog&#038;utm_campaign=teamtalk_september\"><strong>TeamKinetic News and Events<\/strong><\/a><\/span><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/teamkinetic.co.uk\/blog\/2024\/09\/teamtalk-september\/3\/?utm_source=newsletter&#038;utm_medium=blog&#038;utm_campaign=teamtalk_september\"><span style=\"color: #002133;\"><strong>Our Partner News and Events<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/teamkinetic.co.uk\/blog\/2024\/09\/teamtalk-september\/5\/?utm_source=newsletter&#038;utm_medium=blog&#038;utm_campaign=teamtalk_september\"><span style=\"color: #ffb37b;\"><strong>TeamKinetic User Events<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>                    <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-space-between is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-5 wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button is-style-outline is-style-outline--6\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/teamkinetic.co.uk\/blog\/2024\/09\/teamtalk-september\/3\/?utm_source=newsletter&amp;utm_medium=blog&amp;utm_campaign=teamtalk_september\">Previous Page<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-button is-style-outline is-style-outline--7\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/teamkinetic.co.uk\/blog\/2024\/09\/teamtalk-september\/5\/?utm_source=newsletter&amp;utm_medium=blog&amp;utm_campaign=teamtalk_september\">Next Page<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>   <\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--nextpage-->\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">TeamKinetic User News<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Transforming Volunteer Management at Willowbrook Hospice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Willowbrook Hospice have been a valued TeamKinetic user <a href=\"https:\/\/teamkinetic.co.uk\/blog\/2022\/01\/how-willowbrook-transformed-their-volunteer-management\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">since 2019<\/a>. In that time, we&#8217;ve seen their volunteer management go from strength to strength. We recently caught up with Ian, their volunteer manager, and he told us how TeamKinetic helped to transform their processes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before 2019, Ian struggled with outdated, complicated systems that made managing a growing team of volunteers inefficient and time-consuming. Communication was difficult, with a limited daily email quota and a reliance on paper-based records, leading to disorganisation and frequent frustration.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"502\" src=\"https:\/\/teamkinetic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/image-2-1024x502.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15530\" srcset=\"https:\/\/teamkinetic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/image-2-1024x502.png 1024w, https:\/\/teamkinetic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/image-2-300x147.png 300w, https:\/\/teamkinetic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/image-2-768x376.png 768w, https:\/\/teamkinetic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/image-2-900x441.png 900w, https:\/\/teamkinetic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/image-2-1280x627.png 1280w, https:\/\/teamkinetic.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/image-2.png 1472w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>The introduction of TeamKinetic brought about a significant positive change. The platform centralised all volunteer management tasks, greatly improving efficiency and communication. Shop managers were given the tools to manage their own rotas, and onboarding new volunteers became easier and more inclusive. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The improved reporting features allowed Ian to show the value of the volunteer program to stakeholders quickly. The ongoing support from TeamKinetic and its cost-effectiveness have further established it as an essential tool in Willowbrook Hospice\u2019s operations, helping Ian manage his team more effectively and with less stress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Get in touch if you fancy a catch-up chat to share your TeamKinetic story!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>We love to spotlight some of the news, views, and events from our users&#8217; organisations.
