Using social media

Social media is a great, free way to publicly celebrate and thank your volunteers.

#VolunteersWeek

Each year, Volunteers’ Week shares your wonderful celebrations across Facebook, Instagram and via our four partner X and LinkedIn pages too.

In the build up to the campaign, and during the week itself, use #VolunteersWeek to share:

  • posts promoting, counting down to, and celebrating Volunteers’ Week
  • video testimonials from your volunteers
  • video thank you messages to your volunteers
  • photos from your Volunteers’ Week events.

You could also use your local secondary hashtag:

You’ll be joining thousands of other organisations in a UK-wide show of thanks.

You can also encourage your volunteers to share their stories using #VolunteersWeek.
