Mar-09 2009/10 FEVA Abandoned Green November 2010 - a toolkit is not going to be developed so this action has been abandoned. However, there has been good progress made with other, similar initiatives. Volunteer Development Scotland and the Forum for Environmental Volunteering Associations (FEVA) are the main organisations taking volunteering forward. In 2011 - the Year of Volunteering, they are planning on focussing on encouraging biological recording volunteers and to train volunteer leaders. This builds on earlier work, including a contract let by SNH to look at case studies in which LBAP partnerships were able to involve volunteers. These case studies helped to identify what worked best to attract volunteers. Volunteer Development Scotland and FEVA are offering a range of free learning opportunities, accredited and non-accredited, to be delivered across Scotland commencing September 2010. The programme of training is about "looking after your volunteers" and includes recruiting volunteers, keeping them motivated, recognising their achievements as well as learning how to evaluate the value of volunteering. The programme will be delivered by Volunteer Development Scotland at a range of venues in Edinburgh, Glasgow, Ayr, Stirling and Inverness. The Customised Award has been popular with FEVA Network organisations over the past 2 years, and 20 volunteer managers have completed it to date.

Promotion of BAP delivery to community and voluntary sectors is part of SNH's ongoing work on supporting environmental volunteering.
