Volunteering

Our colleagues love to get involved and help their communities make positive changes.  

We have volunteering-friendly policies, including two paid volunteering days each year, so that our colleagues can lend their time in a flexible way that works for them. They get involved in a range of activities including mentoring, befriending, supporting food banks, sports coaching, and many others.

Here's what some of them had to say about their volunteering experiences:

“Being part of a team that make such a positive difference to people’s lives gives me a huge sense of purpose.”
