Every door knocked, leaflet delivered and call made counts on a live leaderboard. Volunteers earn a level and a trophy case as the work adds up, and can track their own progress against their branch.
Campaigns rely on volunteers, and it is easy for volunteers to feel their effort goes unnoticed or to burn out over a long campaign. Turning the work into a game makes it more engaging, builds a sense of friendly competition between volunteers, and gives you an easy way to recognise and reward the people putting in the hours.
Each branch has its own board, monthly and all time. On top of that, every volunteer carries a level, shown as a coloured ring around their avatar wherever they appear, and builds a trophy case of milestones for the doors, leaflets, calls and register rows they have personally covered. Their own page shows the lot: level, trophy case, a year of activity and a personal record.
A door counts when a volunteer records a door-knock entry at an address, once per address however many people live there. Leaflets are credited when a round is marked delivered, with the round's leaflet count going to everyone assigned to it. A digitised row counts when a signed-in volunteer keys it. Gold, silver and bronze mark the top three on each board, and every name carries its volunteer's level ring.
Nothing is typed into a spreadsheet afterwards. The board is a live query over the same records the rest of the campaign uses.
The board follows the branch you are looking at, so a ward team competes with itself rather than with a national network. Switch between this month, previous months and all time. Filter by ward to see who is covering your patch.
A monthly board resets on the first of the month, so someone who joined in March has every chance of topping it in April.
Recorded work earns XP, and XP sets a level from 1 to 60, shown as a coloured ring around the volunteer's avatar in the top bar, on leaderboard rows and everywhere else they appear. Milestones for doors, leaflets, calls, register rows, polling-day knocking and a weekly streak sit on their own six-track ladder, first, then bronze, silver, gold, platinum and diamond, scaled so a tier takes roughly the same effort whichever activity earns it.
A volunteer's own page brings it together: their level and progress to the next one, a year of activity as a heatmap with their current and longest streak, the trophy case itself, how close they are to the next tier on each track, personal bests, and a feed of recent activity that calls out the doors, leaflets and rows behind every trophy and level gained.
Twenty people knock a ward between ten and one. By the time they are back at the pub the board has the morning's doors against each name, and the organiser reads out the top three from a phone.
Leaflet rounds are solitary work. A monthly board gives a deliverer a reason to finish the round before the month ends, and a fresh board on the first of the month gives everyone a clean start.
A regular door-knocker gets a toast one evening: bronze for doors, every address in their polling district covered. It is sitting in their trophy case next time an organiser opens their profile.
Before an AGM or a thank-you email, the all-time board and each volunteer's trophy case tell an organiser who has done the most across the whole campaign, without a spreadsheet kept on the side.
No. The board, the level and the trophy case are all built from the work as it is recorded: the door-knock entry, the round marked delivered, the call outcome, the digitised row. If the work is in Cadrify, it counts.
Doors count once per address, so re-knocking the same house does not add up. Leaflets are credited only when a round is completed. Voided or deleted entries never count, and their XP is removed at the next sync.
The board lives inside the branch, so its counts are visible to the organisers and volunteers who can see that branch, and nobody outside it. A volunteer's level ring, trophy case and activity follow a separate setting they control themselves, their organisation, their branches, or just themselves. Turn that down and the board still shows their counts, only the ring and profile go private.
Each board is scoped to the branch you are looking at and the branches beneath it. A regional organiser sees the region, a ward organiser sees the ward, and the numbers roll up rather than mixing. A volunteer's level and trophy case sum their work across every organisation their account belongs to, but a trophy case on an organisation's page only shows what they did there.
Someone who joins for an afternoon through a one-time QR link can knock doors and deliver leaflets, but only signed-in volunteers appear on the board and earn XP, a level or a trophy. Give regular helpers an account so their work is counted and recognised.
No. Levelling up and earning a trophy both surface as a plain toast, reporting what happened rather than making a show of it, and the moment lands in their own activity feed to look back on.
Volunteer effort stops being invisible. The people who do the most are named every month without an organiser keeping a tally, their level ring carries that record wherever they show up in Cadrify, and a trophy case gives even a new volunteer something within reach.
It costs nothing to switch on because there is nothing to switch on. Run the campaign in Cadrify and the board, the levels and the trophy case keep themselves.
