Corporate Volunteering

For over 35 years we have worked in partnership with businesses around the East Midlands to enable them to make a difference on the ground.

From major national partnerships to one-off employee volunteering events, we work flexibly with businesses to understand their needs and budget to provide you with the best team outing!

By working together we can help your business make a major impact that your colleagues and customers will be proud of.

We have volunteering opportunities in green spaces around Derbyshire, Leicestershire, Lincolnshire, and Nottinghamshire.

  • Local action, national reach: With projects all around the country, we’re unique in that we can combine local knowledge with an ability to manage relationships and capture impact on a national level.
  • Track record:  We’ve worked with major brands such as Deloitte, B&Q, British Gas, Tesco, and many more. We are used to designing team days around the needs of different businesses – big and small!
  • Bridge-builders:  We act as an interface between the boardroom and the community group, bridging the gap between the corporate world and neighbourhood needs.
  • Genuine impact: We’ve helped businesses make a real difference within communities, and can help you map and report that impact and value – including the benefit for employees and brand perception.
  • Budget friendly: Our day rates are low at just £1,500 for groups of maximum 20 people, which includes trained staff, all tools and materials, PPE, and refreshments. We can also accommodate larger groups, please enquire to find out more.
