We take our obligations under the Data Protection Act (1998) seriously.

We offer user registration to make it as easy as possible for you to apply online for volunteering opportunities. One copy of your completed form will go to the opportunity provider (sometimes the volunteer centre) and a registration confirmation email to the relevant volunteer centre.

The volunteer centre might forward your details to the opportunity provider in order to take your application forward. Otherwise, the information will never be passed on to a third party without your permission.

We ask for information about gender and age to help us with equal opportunities monitoring. Not all volunteering opportunities are open to all age groups (e.g. some are specifically for young people or older people and many organisations cannot involve volunteers under the age of 16 etc) so it helps our partners place volunteers in appropriate opportunities.

You will not receive further mailings other than a reply to your enquiry from the opportunity provider or volunteer centre.

If you have any concerns or questions please contact us.
