Volunteer Together as a Team

Volunteering together, as a team, is popular and it’s easy to see why.  It is a brilliant way of experiencing something completely different as a group, having fun and crucially achieving something really worthwhile.  Whether you are a team of work colleagues, a group of friends, a faith group or even a family – team volunteering is an easy and enjoyable way to get involved and make a difference. If you’re interested in group/team volunteering opportunities you should have a look at the one-off/event opportunities listed below. To make life easy for you we have put together these simple, easy-to-follow Team Volunteering Guidelines.

Team Opportunities for Employees

People who work well together as a team are one of the most valuable assets any employer can have. There are many team building tools available but few are as satisfying, inexpensive and widely beneficial as a community challenge. Rather than spending large amounts of money on a conventional team building day, connecting with a local community-based organisation can provide both employers and teams with many benefits:

  • Great value for money
  • An outstanding sense of achievement for all who take part
  • A real team building experience, impossible to replicate in the training room
  • Delivery of your corporate social responsibility policy objectives

More and more companies, big and small, are now seeing the benefits of team volunteering challenges in their local community.
