*HVG Events - The Currency of Influence: How to Secure the Resources Your Volunteers Deserve

Do you struggle to secure the budget, staff, or leadership buy-in your volunteering programme needs?
It is a common frustration: you know the immense value your volunteers bring, but without the right data to back it up, it is hard to make the case for investment. In the boardroom, "goodwill" is not a currency—impact is.
To get the resources you deserve, you need to speak the language of your stakeholders.
This one-hour strategic taster session will be led by Join Chris Wade of Time for Impact.
We will explore how to move beyond basic "hours counted" and start measuring the real ROI of your volunteering activities. You will learn how to:
- Build the Business Case: Directly link volunteer impact to your organisation’s strategic goals to unlock new funding and resources.
- Gain Internal Influence: Shift the perception of volunteering from a "nice-to-have" to a critical strategic asset.
- Visualise Value: Get an introduction to Time for Impact's Volunteer Impact Scorecard Step-by-Step Tool, a solution designed to capture the full spectrum of value – from beneficiary outcomes to organisational health – giving you the evidence you need to demand more.
Stop asking for resources and start justifying them.
