Get involved as a Local Authority
What do we ask of you?
The only thing we ask is that you communicate about the Irish Volunteering Index to your residents and community groups while the survey is running. You can use our ready-to-use communications toolbox, which includes image and text material for social media, banners and prepared news items.
The goal? The more people who have their say, the better! You'll receive your results regardless. Collect at least 200 responses from your local authority area and we can deliver an additional, personalised and relevant report just for your county.
What insights can you expect?
Based on the data from the report, you'll gain insight into how volunteers and community members feel in your county.
Do they feel their contribution makes a difference in the local area? What do they expect more of, or differently, from local government to support volunteering? How can you encourage people to get involved as a volunteer or in a community organisation?
What you'll receive
- A communications kit with templates for different channels, online and offline
- The national report of the Irish Volunteering Index with results and conclusions
- The processed data for your local authority in an accessible Excel overview
- If at least 200 residents of your county take part, a confidential report with the results specific to your area
On top of this, you'll receive a benchmark of results across Ireland, giving you a clear view of how your county compares to others nationwide.
