Monaghan Volunteer Centre will work with any not-for-profit organisation – this may include charities, community groups, co-operatives and statutory organisations such as HSE nursing homes, schools, hospitals, etc. We may ask to see your constitution or set of rules to clarify this. We will not seek volunteers for individuals or for for-profit organisations.
Monaghan Volunteer Centre can provide advice and guidance, or access to information, on a range of issues related to managing volunteers. This might relate to Information & Support on recruitment of volunteers, how to motivate volunteers, dealing with difficult situations etc. This support is available on request so please feel free to contact us by phone or by email.
Monaghan Volunteer Centre provides a Garda Vetting service to voluntary organisations that do not have access to their own Liaison Person. A Liasion Person is someone who has been trained by An Garda Siochana in the correct administration of Garda Vetting. Because not all small organisations are able to access this Garda training, we may act as Liasion Person on their behalf. We require all new affiliate organisations to attend Garda Vetting training with us before using this service. The training is free of charge. Please contact Sinéad Keenan or Grace Sherry for enquiries about Garda Vetting.
We do not provide child protection training. It is available from Tusla for organisations that work with children and young people. Their website has lots of useful information about child protection and what your organisation needs to do to protect itself, its volunteers and the children and young people it works with. They now have a basic course available online at TUSLA CHILDREN FIRST E-LEARNING
For details of upcoming child protection training in Co. Monaghan please contact

Volunteer Ireland, Volunteer Centres and Volunteering Information Services are independent of Government, political parties and interest groups. As such, we maintain ideological and political neutrality. Our mission is to promote the value of volunteering and increase the range and quality of volunteering in Ireland. Any organisation wishing to recruit volunteers may do so through our online database, I-VOL, once they meet the terms and conditions of I-VOL. The advertising of a volunteer opportunity on behalf of an organisation does not imply any endorsement of the aims and objectives of the organisation.We believe that volunteering should be accessible and inclusive. Our role is to ensure that anyone who wants to volunteer can volunteer.
