- Simplify and reduce the bureaucracy
- Have an Equality/Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Policy
- Support those who need extra help to volunteer

Join us in saying a huge THANK YOU to our city's Volunteers during Volunteers' Week
Taking place from 1 - 7 June, Volunteers' Week is an opportunity to recognise and say thank you to York's Volunteers
To mark Volunteers' Week we're asking organisations in York to join us in saying thank you. Here's how your organisation can get involved:
- Send us a short video (in landscape mode) from your smartphone, saying 'Thank you'. Make sure your video includes your logo in the background! Send your video to comms@yorkcvs.org.uk and we'll put them all together to share during Volunteers' Week.
- Share your Volunteer stories with us. Let us know how Volunteers have helped your organisation and say a special thank you and shout out to your Volunteers. If you're a Volunteer, share your experiences of Volunteering to inspire others to get involved. We'll publish your stories on our website and share them on social media. Email your stories to: comms@yorkcvs.org.uk
If you have any questions, or need some help with your video, please get in contact.
