Community Placement Organisations play an integral part in the overall success of the programme. Delivery Partners develop the external network of host organisations as a means of providing young people with a wider variety of opportunities. These Community Placement Organisations are quality checked by Delivery Partners to ensure that they meet the quality standards of the programme and to ensure that young people enjoy the same high quality of support, opportunities and experiences wherever they volunteer. There are currently over 175 registered Community Placement Organisations, each receives a quality standard recognition certificate on registration.
