The Value of Volunteering in Falkirk

Posted on August 4, 2017

Based on the results of the Falkirk Third Sector Impact Survey 2017, there are 4,249 people currently volunteering in Falkirk, providing 1,397 hours of volunteering on a weekly basis.

The value of this volunteering is equivalent to £613,841.80 per annum (or £11,804.65 per week), based on the current Living Wage.

This figure does not reflect the ideas, enthusiasm and experience that volunteers provide to organisations, or the vital role they have in delivering services and support in the Falkirk Council area.

The full Third Sector Impact Measurement Report will be published on the CVS Falkirk website later this year.
