What do the latest guidelines mean for volunteering?
Public Health guidance remains in place to help stop the spread of COVID-19. Continue to protect yourself and others by following public health advice.
Many in-person activities have resumed and many organisations will have safeguarding measures in place to help limit the potential spread of COVID-19. This includes social distancing, restricted numbers in gatherings, mask-wearing, and hygiene measures.
Volunteering will look different for individual organisations and should you wish to volunteer for an organisation, you are encouraged to ask about their COVID-19 policy/procedures.
