The document discusses a letter sent by the Newbury Labour Party to West Berkshire councillors asking if they agreed that the UK was violating international law by failing to ensure citizens' human right to food. Food bank use in West Berkshire increased dramatically in recent years, with over 900 people now relying on emergency food aid. The councillors did not respond to the letter. When asked if West Berkshire would support local people struggling to afford food like other councils, the council leader gave a brief, unhelpful response. The document criticizes West Berkshire Council for prioritizing tax breaks for second homeowners over supporting the district's poorest residents who are struggling to afford food.

Change Calling Evidence Session: 28.10.2021
This document summarizes key points from a session on using evidence to inform action related to volunteering.
It defines evidence as anything that causes belief in the truth or occurrence of something, such as research, experiences, social media, or expert opinions. Evidence should be critically evaluated and multiple sources used to verify information. Gaps in evidence are also important to identify.
When applying evidence, it is important to set clear boundaries on what issues will be addressed, understand complex systems, and prioritize actions. Factors like life transitions, flexibility in volunteering opportunities, and reducing barriers at key stages should inform strategies to support lifelong volunteering.
Recognition of volunteers is important but not a major issue; good practices should
Vs Our Work
We believe that volunteering should be an enjoyable, rewarding and fulfilling experience for every volunteer.
Volunteer Scotland Annual Report 2021
The annual report summarizes Volunteer Scotland's activities over the past year. It highlights major accomplishments such as developing the Volunteering Action Plan to achieve the goals of the Volunteering For All framework. It also discusses initiatives to support volunteers and volunteer-involving organizations during the COVID-19 pandemic through research, training, resources and updated standards. Going forward, Volunteer Scotland will continue implementing the Volunteering Action Plan and engaging partners to energize and advance volunteering in Scotland.
YPiS 2019 summary report
The document summarizes survey results on youth volunteering in Scotland from 2019. It finds that 49% of youth participated in formal volunteering, providing 11 million hours annually, compared to 26% of adults. However, youth volunteered less frequently and intensely than adults. Informal volunteering rates were lower at 25% for youth versus 36% for adults. Parental encouragement was an important influence on youth volunteering participation. The benefits of volunteering for youth well-being were emphasized, in addition to career benefits.
YPiS 2019 full report
- The survey found that 49% of young people in Scotland formally volunteer, almost double the adult rate. Formal volunteering has plateaued after steady growth from 2009-2016.
- Sport, children, and hobbies are the most common areas of formal volunteering. Girls volunteer more than boys, especially with children. Parents, teachers, and club members most influence young people to volunteer.
- While over half of young volunteers do so regularly, most provide less than 1 hour of help per month, totaling around 11 million hours annually. Skills development and career benefits are important motivators for youth volunteering in Scotland.
Road to recovery Final Presentation
This document summarizes the findings of a Scottish Government survey on the role of volunteering and the third sector response to COVID-19. It provides preliminary results from 346 respondents representing volunteer-involving organizations and infrastructure organizations. Key findings include: mental health and loneliness emerged as major needs among service users; priorities for organizations include supporting volunteer health and wellbeing and making volunteering safe; and infrastructure organizations prioritized acknowledging informal volunteering while volunteer-involving organizations prioritized re-engaging existing volunteers. Reflections on recovery note differential impacts and the need for a holistic and sustainable approach prioritizing staff, volunteers, and supporting those in need.
Impact of COVID-19 on Scotland’s charities: Full presentation November 2020

Volunteer Scotland Annual Report 2020
The annual report summarizes Volunteer Scotland's activities in 2020, a challenging year due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Key points include:
- Volunteering increased during lockdown as people helped their communities, though formal volunteering declined initially.
- Research found mental health and loneliness increased as top community concerns during the pandemic.
- Communications adapted campaigns like Volunteers' Week to recognize volunteers' critical pandemic response.
- Learning and development initiatives like online training and a mental health volunteer program supported volunteers.
- Disclosure services operations changed to process COVID-related checks online after an initial drop in applications.
Systems change and collaboration Presentation VS AGM
This document discusses factors that influence volunteering rates and the volunteering system. It identifies several types of capital - structural, material/economic, political, cultural, social, and human - that affect volunteering. Areas with poorer educational and economic outcomes tend to have lower social capital and fewer community organizations. An aging population and rural environments can also impact volunteering. Systems change requires understanding the current state, envisioning an improved future state, and collaborating with stakeholders to test ideas. The author discusses applying systems thinking and methods from Human Learning Systems to better understand and positively change the volunteering system.
Covid 19 the opportunities and challenges for volunteering in scotland
The document discusses volunteering in Scotland before, during, and after the COVID-19 pandemic. It finds that while informal volunteering and mutual aid increased during the pandemic, formal volunteer numbers with charities decreased significantly. However, total volunteer participation among adults still grew compared to before the pandemic. It predicts that after the pandemic, volunteer participation will remain higher than before, though likely lower than during the peak response period. The document advocates capitalizing on the interrelationships between formal, informal, and mutual aid volunteering to address community needs in both the short and long term.

- Formal volunteering was lower during lockdown at 13% compared to 24% before. Mutual aid and informal volunteering increased to help communities.

A Guide to AI for Smarter Nonprofits - Dr. Cori Faklaris, UNC Charlotte
Working with data is a challenge for many organizations. Nonprofits in particular may need to collect and analyze sensitive, incomplete, and/or biased historical data about people. In this talk, Dr. Cori Faklaris of UNC Charlotte provides an overview of current AI capabilities and weaknesses to consider when integrating current AI technologies into the data workflow. The talk is organized around three takeaways: (1) For better or sometimes worse, AI provides you with “infinite interns.” (2) Give people permission & guardrails to learn what works with these “interns” and what doesn’t. (3) Create a roadmap for adding in more AI to assist nonprofit work, along with strategies for bias mitigation.
