ORIENTEERING FOUNDATION

Volunteering survey closed

The survey on volunteering in orienteering organised by the Orienteering Foundation has now closed. Many thanks to all those who gave their time to participate - over 700 UK orienteers in total.

It will take considerable time to analyse the data collected and for the project team to report but here are some sample results to give a flavour.

What do you LIKE MOST about volunteering in this club governance role?

I can do it from home. I live a long way from most of my club's members and centre of activities.

What do you LIKE LEAST about volunteering in the event official role?

Anxiety as to how the event will go!

Do you feel you get enough recognition for the volunteering you do?

15% said "no".
