01

The week at a glance

Seven columns, Monday to Sunday, with today highlighted. The header counts the week’s shifts and those still unfilled.

02

Unfilled shifts stand out

A shift with no volunteer stands out straight away. Under each coming day are the people who are usually free that day and not yet on the rota.

03

Useful volunteer records

Skills, days available, usual shift, driving licence and vehicle, charter signed, emergency contact: it is all on the person’s record.

Frequently asked questions

Can volunteers see the rota?

Yes, as soon as they have an account: by default, a volunteer can view every page, including the rota.

Do volunteers sign up for shifts themselves?

Not for the moment: shifts are set by the people in charge of the rota, including “unfilled” shifts, which are assigned afterwards.

Can you get the volunteer charter signed?

Yes, online: the person receives a link, signs on their phone, and their record shows the date of signing.
