Hi Verity, Although a few years old now, we have some volunteer resources on the GEM website that are still very useful and that might help you. There’s a volunteer managers toolkit and some examples of learning volunteer handbooks and policies. http://www.gem.org.uk/volunteer/vol_res_menu.php All the best, Jessica Jessica Robertson Communications Officer, GEM www.gem.org.uk<http://www.gem.org.uk/>, +44 (0) 1634 853424 Follow GEM on twitter @GEM_heritage<https://twitter.com/gem_heritage> From: List for discussion of issues in museum education in the UK.

I am hoping people with experience of managing learning volunteers could let me know anything that they see as important. All suggestions valid and helpful. I’m also concerned about training, especially safe guarding and child protection. Do you do in-house training? I think I need to put some policies and a handbook together, but I’m a bit clueless where to start, so any tips would be great.
