Research shows that UK workers want employers to actively support good causes, with businesses benefiting not just from improved employee morale but also through people developing their work skills and knowledge.
Businesses large and small can support charities in a variety of ways. Corporate team volunteering days can be a great way to come together as a team, undertaking physical tasks such as painting, gardening, clearing and equipment assembly. Equally, flexible volunteering for individuals provide opportunities for employees to expand their skills as well as give something back to their community.
Many organisations have adopted a local organisation and collected donations or raised funds on their behalf through various activities, leading to development of strong mutually beneficial relationships.
Engaging with local good causes is good for employees and good for business. Our experienced team can advise you on local opportunities and connect you with a local charity or organisation where you and your colleagues can volunteer together on an organised project.
We have been working with local businesses large and small for over 15 years, helping to develop relationships and build projects that make a lasting difference. We can work with your organisation to identify local causes and projects that will benefit from the wealth of skills, experience and resources that you have to offer.
It is important that you know your activities make a difference and make good business sense. We support you by:
“We can’t thank Atkins Group enough for all the work that has been carried out. The project was something that the school absolutely wouldn’t have been able to do without money or time.”
“I am confident that the lessons learned during your training will have a lasting impact on my work. Your ability to create a positive and supportive learning environment made the experience all the more enjoyable and enriching.”
“Businesses can make a huge difference by supporting charities and the benefits are a healthier and happier workplace.”
