Volunteering

We run a number of programmes to enable staff to do community work. All bring

tremendous benefits to the voluntary organisations and the people they work with. We
may be able to help you too.

Listed below are some of the things we do:

Annual Challenge - mainly practical one-off projects, which teams of staff can take up.
For example, decorating, DIY, day trips or gardening.

Skillshare - short term projects, taking typically 10 hours, and

where staff share their business skills in areas such as marketing, HR,
finance and IT.
Need Trustees? - we encourage staff to take up these positions in
our programmes. Also, to take up positions as school governors in
special needs schools or schools in disadvantaged areas.

If you are looking for funding or volunteering in the above locations, please contact
either Nick Hoyle or Tony Martin as above.
