Buckinghamshire Volunteer Matching Service: request for volunteers form
The Buckinghamshire Volunteer Matching Service (VMS), which is run by Community Impact Bucks in partnership with Buckinghamshire Council, matches registered volunteers to roles where they are most needed in the county.

If your organisation needs volunteers, please fill in the form below. When the form has been submitted:

* you will get an email from the VMS to acknowledge receipt of your volunteer request
* you will get a subsequent email with the name(s) of the volunteer(s) that the service has identified to fulfill your request
* these volunteer(s) will have received an email with your contact information. The volunteer(s) will then contact you.
* Emails to you and to the volunteers will contain group/volunteer guidance and online training links.

N.B. The Volunteer Matching Service has not undertaken formal checks on the volunteers who have signed up with the service. We strongly advise that you follow your usual process and good practice for verifying the identity and assuring the suitability of the volunteers for the role(s). For instance, we strongly advise all groups to check all volunteers’ photo ID and obtain at least one reference.

If you are a charity, voluntary or community group or social enterprise, and would like further support, including  recruiting and managing volunteers or recruiting specialist, skills-based volunteers, please complete Community Impact Bucks’ support request form and one of the Community Impact Bucks team will contact you to discuss the bespoke help that can be provided. https://bit.ly/3Car4Uq
