Become a vinspired awards approved provider

All volunteers aged 14-25 in England are entitled to recognition through the vinspired awards. Over 150 young people apply every week! If you'd like to become an approved provider of vinspired awards, you can apply to here.

By becoming an approved provider, you'll be helping young volunteers gain recognition from a credible source - something that will help them in their search for rewarding jobs and training. You'll also be able to use the vinspired awards logo on your marketing materials, order certificates, and validate applications using our simple online system.

"Not only does volunteering for the vinspired award scheme give you valuable experience, but it makes you eminently more employable. And who knows you might even have some fun too!  I would seriously consider a candidate for interview if they had committed to such a unique scheme." - Karren Brady, West Ham Vice Chairman (and star of The Apprentice)

How do I become an approved provider?

If you're interested in offering the vinspired awards to your volunteers, you can find out more information in Questions and Answers.

Please note: If you're funded by v, but you're not currently validating vinspired awards, you'll need to fill in a short re-registration form! Just contact us at awardssupport@vinspired.com to get started.

If I'm not an approved provider, can my volunteers still get vinspired awards?

Yes. Any volunteer aged 14-25 in England can apply for a vinspired award by recording details of their volunteering through the online system. If the organisation they volunteer for is not signed up as approved vawards provider, they can send their application to our central team of validators by clicking 'i don't mind' when applying for their award.
