London Borough of Redbridge awarded a contract to RCVS for the provision of a Volunteering Centre and a Brokerage Service in the London Borough of Redbridge.

The contract, valued at £225,000, is to be provided as a whole and cannot be divided.

The service aims to increase overall volunteering levels by working with organisations across Redbridge to source volunteer placements and by helping individuals wanting to volunteer into suitable placements.

Key objectives include increasing formal volunteering participation, improving access for residents with complex needs or barriers, enhancing the quality, quantity, and diversity of volunteering opportunities, improving the capacity of non-profit organisations to recruit and retain volunteers, and delivering high-quality service addressing four core functions of volunteering infrastructure: brokerage services, developing volunteer opportunities, strategic development of volunteering, and voice of volunteering.

The provider will also facilitate partnerships with the Authority and stakeholders and monitor volunteer placements for sustainable outcomes.
