Advertising your opportunities
If you are looking to recruit volunteers, you can advertise your opportunities, track and manage your volunteer applications online via our Volunteering Portal.
If you are new to the Portal please create your online account here. You will be asked to create a Volunteer Manager account, complete your organisation's profile and then you will be able to add your opportunities to the Portal.
If you have already set up your online account, log in here.
If you need help registering on the portal please contact Claire on 0161 787 7795 or email volunteer@salfordcvs.co.uk
We can also promote via our social media platforms Twitter and Facebook - tag us in your posts and we will be sure to share or retweet.

Certificate of recognition scheme
The recognition scheme aims to recognise the valuable contribution that volunteers are making in Salford by awarding a Certificate of Recognition signed by the Ceremonial Mayor of Salford. You just need to complete a short form and choose which certificates you would like, we will then print and post the certificates to you. There are certificates based on hours and also a thank you certificate. For more information go to 100 and 500 Hours Recognition Scheme | Salford CVS
