How to Draft a Volunteer Agreement

About this event

A good volunteer agreement will ensure your volunteers are clear about their role, rights and responsibilities. It will help establish and maintain effective relationships with your volunteers and keep everyone safe.

We’ll explain the legal issues you can manage and avoid by using a volunteer agreement, and will walk you through some of the key topics your agreement should cover.
