Purpose
The GA Document Hub is your team workspace for local documents. It is not the place for national policy, guidance, templates, or sensitive data. This guide explains what goes where and how to use it for all colleagues (volunteers and employees).
What to Use Document Hub For
| Type of content | Notes |
|---|---|
| Team meeting minutes | Branch or functional team meetings |
| Local planning documents | Event planning, schedules, checklists |
| Non-sensitive local marketing materials | Posters, flyers, social media drafts |
| Other team resources | Anything specific to your branch/service team, not national guidance or resources |
What NOT to Use Document Hub For
Do not store:
- National policies, guidance, or templates
- Templates governed via Volunteer Knowledgebase
- Personal or beneficiary data
Please note that national policies, guidance and templates should always be accessed via Volunteer Knowledgebase.
Key Roles & Responsibilities

Keeping Document Hub Useful
- Branch and specialist welfare services team executives are responsible for maintaining relevant content within the local folders. To support them in this responsibility, we have prepared guidance on content management and best practice here.
- Volunteers should not attempt to move, delete, or edit files.
- If unsure about where to find a document, contact your branch secretary, specialist welfare services team executive, or volunteer manager.
