Time Well Spent Report - May 2023

The National Council for Voluntary Organisations (NCVO) published the key findings from the 2023 “Time Well Spent” research focusing on volunteers and their experience.

Time Well Spent is NCVO’s research programme focusing on volunteers and their experience. The survey explores:

  • volunteer participation
  • motivations and barriers to volunteering
  • the quality of volunteers' experiences
  • the impact of volunteering.

"The data shows the impact of covid on volunteering has been profound. People who were lifelong volunteers broke their habit during the pandemic and haven’t yet got back to it. Given how important volunteering is to our social fabric - and how much people get out of it - we need an urgent focus on helping people find opportunities that suit them.

There are also positives with high levels of satisfaction among volunteers. This is a testament to the hard work of volunteer-involving organisations. Many have had to adapt their volunteering opportunities over the last few years to respond to social distancing measures as well as new need in communities."
