If a participant has NOT completed the Silver level, then they should do one activity for a minimum of 6 months (at least 30 hours), one for 12 months (60 hrs) and one for 18months (90 hrs), with the Volunteering being either 12 or 18 months.

If they have done Silver, then participants do one for 6 months, and two for 12 months, with Volunteering as one of the 12 months.

Activities should be weekly or fortnightly. It is permissable for the Volunteering section only to do approx 5hours once a month, but engagement with activity should not be spread out more than this. Of course, you can do many more hours if you want to!
