Getting volunteers on board quickly means less admin and more help on the ground. This free volunteer consent form template collects a volunteer's contact details, skills, availability and a clear agreement to take part, all in one digital form.

SurveyHeart is not a legal e-signature platform, so check local rules if a formal volunteer agreement is required.

Frequently asked questions

Can I collect separate consent for photo and media use by volunteers?

Yes. Add a checkboxes question asking whether the volunteer agrees to be photographed or filmed during their activities.

Can volunteers indicate multiple availability slots?

Yes. Use a checkboxes field with time slots or days so volunteers can tick all the times they are available.

Can I use this for under-18 volunteers?

Add a parent or guardian name and consent field. Parental agreement should be collected for minors.

How do I follow up with volunteers after they submit?

Export responses from your dashboard and contact volunteers by the email or phone number they provided.
