VKnowsley - Awards

Awards

As well as helping young people find the right volunteer role, vinvolved Knowsley also recognises all the work that young people do volunteering in the community.

This is a really important part of the project and the team are proud to have already organised two annual award ceremonies to celebrate young people's achievements, with the next one taking place in March 2011. If you want to be involved in next year's awards and have your recognition certificated presented to you, get in touch with the team to find out how to go about it or see below for more about this year's awards.

When you do start volunteering you can receive certificates in recognition of the work you have done - even if you only do some volunteering for half a day!

You can start off with the blue 'thank you' certificates - for any number of hours you volunteer.

Next is the v50 - if you are regularly volunteering, start logging your hours and working towards this certificate, 50 hours of volunteering within 12 months.

Once you've achieved your v50 you can then start working towards the vimpact certificate - reaching 100 hours of volunteering within 12 months.

All you need to do is get in touch with the vinvolved Knowsley team so that we can make sure you receive the recognition you deserve! You can record your hours in the v logbook which we will send out to you or if you prefer to do this online, just register your profile on the www.vinspired.com website.
