Helping businesses deliver Social Impact
Make Good Things Happen with employer-supported volunteering
If you’re organisation provides paid time off work to your employees for volunteering, we can help you find the best opportunities. We can also advise you on best practice, policy development and alternative models to maximise your social and environmental impact.
Many employers are increasingly taking a flexible approach: giving staff maximum flexibility from a wide range of the things they can do. Many are also concentrating on specific forms of volunteering: charity fundraising, specialist/skills-based volunteering, team volunteering, or remote/online opportunities. And many are often prioritising specific not-for-profits or types of charities/good causes that they wish to support.
We can:
- Deliver ‘Get Ready to Volunteer’ workshops and sessions, customised for your staff. These are designed to raise awareness of the benefits to your employees of volunteering, of the range of opportunities and how best to find the right opportunity using our online search platform.
- Provide policy guidance, practical advice and connect you with charities and other not-for-profit organisations that align with the good causes that you wish to support.
- Connect your offers of Team Volunteering with the not-for-profits that can really benefit from your help.

In the near future…
We aim to offer employers and employees an improved online volunteering platform that makes it even easier to find the right opportunities, to make best use of your time off work – but also to record and report on the social and/or environmental impact.
