Focusing on practical decision-making, this session helps organisations assess when and how employer-supported volunteering is most effective, and how to shape offers that are realistic, impactful, and mutually beneficial. It explores different perspectives across charities, employers, and volunteers, highlighting how motivations and expectations vary, and what this means in practice. You’ll also be introduced to a more flexible, portfolio-style approach that supports better use of capacity, encourages longer-term thinking, and opens up opportunities for broader partnerships beyond volunteering alone.
