Supported Sector: The Voices of Befriending Networks Members

Collated during networking discussion sessions held with over 120 participants at our annual Membership Conference, the Voices Report brings together a wealth of experience, ideas, and practice. The report responds to questions asked by Befriending Networks of our membership, and tells us, and each other, of the challenges and solutions for top issues impacting the befriending sector. Through the report, you can explore themes including supporting long-service volunteers, managing capacity, retaining volunteers, handling inappropriate referrals, and tips on reflective practices and training activities.
