Completing MV Forms - Volunteers

How to complete your MV forms to get your hands on your certificates:

  • First complete the Volunteer Registration form and return it to the Volunteer Centre
  • If you are volunteering with more than one organisation fill in the details on the back of the form
  • Agree with your supervisor who will be responsible for keeping the Timesheet up to date.  This is the
  • most important form and it’s easiest to do it as you go along
  • When you have reached 50,100 or 200 hours of volunteering let your supervisor know
  • Then return your completed Case Study form to the Volunteer Centre.  This means that we can
  • highlight the great work you have done at the MV event
  • You will be invited to the next MV Award event and you will be presented with your Award
  • Bring along a friend or family member to join the fun, with music and food after the presentation event

Useful tips:

  • You can include hours from your 16th birthday
  • Awards must be completed within two years
  • Past hours count if you were 16 or over when you were volunteering
  • Time spent in training and supervision counts
  • Travel time counts, except for travelling off Shetland
  • Attending an event / activity put on by others counts as volunteering when you have a role as a trainer/ fundraiser/ coach/ leader, etc.
  • Two extra forms are available to help you plan your activities and learning with your supervisor.  We can send these if you are interested
