Make Your Mark

We're recruiting for a Campaign Coordinator to lead the development and delivery of inclusive heritage volunteering initiatives across Scotland.

Our annual conference brought together volunteer organisers to share ideas, experiences and insights on co-creation and collaboration, with volunteer voices at the heart of the conversation.

Our new research report shows that heritage volunteering is vital to Scotland’s historic environment and delivers strong wellbeing and skills benefits, but greater investment and support are needed for it to thrive.

We’re inviting voluntary organisations in Scotland to submit a digital poster to showcase their inclusive volunteering programmes.

Researchers at Newcastle University are exploring how older volunteers and their managers experience the end of the volunteering journey. They’re inviting volunteer managers and coordinators across the UK to share their insights in a short survey to help shape better practice and support.

We're looking for speakers for our next annual conference, which will take stock of the current state of volunteer management practice, with an eye to foregrounding the importance of inclusive volunteering in a time where human rights and equality, equity, diversity and inclusion programmes are being challenged worldwide. 

Every organisation has archives that tell its story, and these records are a valuable asset worth preserving and sharing. By posting archive volunteering roles on the Make Your Mark portal, you can connect with a growing community of people passionate about history and heritage.

In 2024-5, Make Your Mark supported Muslim women to engage with nature-based volunteering.
