This Mental Health Awareness Week (13-19 May) is the perfect time for volunteer managers to consider how they look after and support their teams at all times.
While the mental wellbeing and happiness of volunteers is clearly a big consideration for the sector, it may not always be at the forefront of people’s minds with assumptions that wellbeing policies and documents are only for an organisation’s paid staff - but they should and do apply to everyone that contributes to a charity or organisation’s work.
The purpose of a wellbeing policy is to promote a good work-life balance and it helps to create a culture of openness and understanding within an organisation.
TFN have written a brilliant piece about this very topic which you can read here.
