Volunteering can transform lives, fostering wellbeing, connection, and community impact. Our core principles guide how we work with partners to ensure opportunities are inclusive, meaningful, and supportive. Together, we’re creating spaces where volunteers thrive and communities flourish.
1. Embracing Diversity and Inclusion
Good Space partners champion diversity and foster an inclusive environment where volunteers from all backgrounds, including those facing mental health challenges and disabilities, feel welcome and valued.
2. Prioritising Volunteer Wellbeing and Personal Development
Good Space partners are committed to prioritising the mental health, personal growth, and overall wellbeing of their volunteers. They create supportive environments that recognise and celebrate their contributions, while providing programmes that contribute to skills development, knowledge enhancement, and personal wellbeing.
3. Collaboration and Community Engagement
We believe in the power of partnerships and community collaboration. Good Space partners engage with other organisations, referral partners, and volunteers to foster a supportive network that enhances the volunteering experience and promotes shared goals.
4. Flexibility and Adaptability
We understand that each volunteer has unique needs and circumstances. Good Space partners aim to offer flexible volunteering roles that can be tailored to accommodate individual preferences and availability, promoting a more engaging, inclusive and fulfilling experience.
5. Continuous Learning and Improvement
We are dedicated to fostering a culture of continuous learning within our partnership. Good Space partners engage in regular training, share best practices, and participate in feedback mechanisms to enhance their volunteer programmes and contribute to the overall growth of the Good Space movement.
