We are experts in finding solutions for each client and creating effective and impactful employee volunteering opportunities.
We use our vast network across the UK to connect your volunteers to suitable community partner organisations and facilitate the process throughout, concluding with volunteer feedback and impact measurement.
We take care of the research, identification of bespoke opportunities, all health & safety, risk management and logistics. This gives you time to focus on maximising engagement, promoting the programme, and achieving your overall business goals.
What we offer
We enable teams of employee volunteers to support a community partner (such as a charity or school) through practical activities, interacting with service users or sharing their professional skills.
This can be a one-off day or long-term relationship over a sustained period, giving your employees the opportunity to develop a deeper and more meaningful connection.
Individual employee volunteers can be matched with young people to support them to develop their skills in academic subjects or to mentor them either in-person or virtually.
Employee volunteers can also participate in our skills-based corporate volunteering programme to support charities and community groups to overcome operational challenges.
Work with our expert staff to develop your social impact and social value programmes and/or employee volunteer policies and materials.
Volunteering Works can also design and deliver training days that equip your employees to source and deliver volunteering opportunities in-house.
How we work
Volunteering Works offer more than simple brokerage.
We identify a suitable partnership and manage everything right through to evaluation and impact reporting. We take the stress, time, and risk out of your hands to provide high quality employee volunteer opportunities.
We provide added value by tailoring our employee volunteer programmes to connect your social impact objectives with genuine community needs.
We do this by providing:
Expert knowledge
Our team brings expert knowledge of practice and trends in employee volunteering, gained through our extensive portfolio of corporate clients over 30 years.
Bespoke & stress-free service
Our expertise in programme design and evaluation takes the time, stress, and risk out of your volunteer initiatives – we offer much more than brokerage, tailored to your needs.
High impact for everyone
Our programmes create positive impact for your business, your employees, and community partners. We also offer double impact -by working with us, you are supporting our wider charity Volunteering Matters.
A large network of community partners
As part of the UK’s leading volunteering charity, we have a diverse range of community partners that we can connect you with. We combine the reach and scale of a national organisation with truly deep local connections.
