What £295 replaces — the honest comparison.

At £295/year, if you run just one training session you’ve already saved money versus a single external trainer. Everything else is pure value.

What you’d normally pay for Typical external cost With Volunteer Solutions
Hiring an external trainer (half-day) £400–£800 ✓ Included
Individual training packs (per topic) £40–£80 each ✓ All 54+ included
In-house design & preparation time £50–£150 / session ✓ Done for you
eLearning platform for volunteer self-study £200–£500 / year ✓ Included
Legal guidance update workshops £150–£300 / person ✓ Built in, updated 2026
All 54+ packs at individual purchase price £2,650+ ✓ £295/year
💡

The maths are straightforward. The quality is uncompromising.

A single external trainer for one half-day session costs more than an entire year’s licence. The licence pays for itself the moment you deliver your first session. Everything after that is organisations getting professional training for a fraction of what it would cost any other way.

How the licence model works.

Straightforward annual access — designed to give you everything your organisation needs, at a price that makes sense.

📅

Annual Licence Model

Organisations buy access to the complete training system, not individual documents. Your subscription covers your whole programme for the year — every pack, every tool, every stage.

Full year access
💾

Download and Keep

Materials downloaded during your licence year remain yours permanently. Portal access and future updates require annual renewal — but you never lose what you’ve already downloaded.

Perpetual downloads
✏️

Editable Files Included

Adapt content for your organisation — add your logo, local policies, and real-world examples. PowerPoint slides are fully editable for all licences.

Make it yours
♾️

Unlimited Volunteers

There are no per-volunteer fees and no limit on how many volunteers you train. The facilitator seat limit applies only to internal staff accessing the portal directly.

No seat charges
🔁

Renewal Incentive

Renewing organisations receive approximately 35% off, plus access to all new packs and legal updates published since their last renewal. The longer you stay, the better the value.

Frequently asked questions.

Everything you need to know before subscribing. If your question isn’t here, get in touch.

What happens to materials I’ve downloaded if I don’t renew? +
All materials downloaded during your licence year remain yours to use permanently. You keep every pack, toolkit, and workbook you’ve downloaded. What renewing provides is continued access to the learning portal, any new packs released after your renewal date, and updated versions of existing packs reflecting changes in legislation or sector practice.
How many volunteers can I train with one licence? +
Unlimited. There are no per-volunteer fees and no limit on how many volunteers you train using the materials. The facilitator seat limit (∼10 for the single licence) applies only to internal staff who access the learning portal directly — it does not restrict the number of volunteers you can train in sessions, remotely, or via self-study.
Can I customise the materials for our organisation? +
Yes. All licence holders can adapt content for local context, add their logo to presentations, and tailor examples for their setting. Editable Word files for deeper customisation are available with the Network / Umbrella Licence only. All licences include editable PowerPoint files. All licences permit internal use and adaptation — materials may not be redistributed externally or resold.
We’re a CVS — can we share access with our member organisations? +
Yes. The Network / Umbrella Licence is specifically designed for CVS bodies and umbrella organisations that want to provide access to multiple independent member organisations under a single agreement. It includes governance reporting, bespoke branding, and central oversight tools not available on single licences. Contact us to discuss your structure.
Is there a free trial or sample pack I can see first? +
Yes. A selection of complete free packs is available on the Free Resources page — no payment or registration required. These are full, complete packs in the standard format, not edited samples, so you can properly assess the quality, depth, and style before subscribing.
Are the packs updated when legislation changes? +
Yes. All packs containing content that may be affected by UK legislation or sector guidance are monitored and updated when relevant changes occur. Updates are released to current subscribers at no extra cost throughout the licence year. This is one of the most important reasons to maintain an active licence — downloaded materials from previous years may not reflect current law, whereas the portal always holds the most current version.
Can I buy a single pack rather than a full licence? +
Yes — single pack purchases are available at £50 per pack as a one-off download (static PDF, no portal access, no future updates included). However, a single licence at £295 gives you all 54+ packs, working out at under £6 per pack. For most organisations running more than a handful of sessions a year, the full licence is significantly better value — it pays for itself after just six packs.
Can I use the materials for in-person and remote training? +
Yes. All materials are designed to support in-person, hybrid, and remote delivery. Every pack includes facilitator notes covering virtual delivery, and self-study workbook versions are included for volunteers learning independently. You can print, share digitally, or deliver via screen share — the format is entirely your choice.
