Recruitment in the Voluntary Sector: Challenges and Opportunities

Young, Doug; Morrison-Gillies, Corinne

Abstract

UK voluntary sector organisations are facing intense resourcing challenges in the wake of significant changes taking place in their recruitment context. In this paper, Doug Young reflects on particular challenges being faced by social care organisations in this sector, and potential organisational responses to these. Corinne Morrison-Gillies then presents a case study example of their ‘Get Into Care with CrossReach’ programme, designed to facilitate the employment of young people with challenging backgrounds in her organisation.
