While you're celebrating your volunteers during #GlobalVolunteerMonth it's a great opportunity to show the social impact they have created, but how do you actually measure it? 🤔 We like to group it into three different kinds of impact 👇 You can show social impact through: 1️⃣ Volunteering engagement 2️⃣ Number of people supported 3️⃣ Cost savings to the community If you need help to show how you've helped your community get in touch 👉 https://lnkd.in/gJ3wgGKz #EmployeeVolunteering #SocialImpact #Volunteering

2 years clean! Two years ago, I spent a few minutes removing a lot of graffiti from this National Cycle Network sign in Edinburgh city centre to make it legible again. Since then I’ve been noticing how long it has stayed clean. That’s my kind of fun - one year was exciting enough but two years has almost blown my tiny mind. This is the power of microvolunteering – a small act can have a big impact. It’s something Sustrans has been building into their spectrum of volunteering for some time through Quick Ways to Volunteer, and now through the Action Team (https://lnkd.in/ew7VdvP5). Because it’s something more people are looking for in their volunteering. As a recent article on flexible volunteering in Pro Bono Economics reminds us, time pressures are the biggest barrier for charities engaging volunteers - “In a changing world, where people are constantly being pulled in so many different directions, the sector needs to harness its flexible and adaptable nature in its approach to volunteer recruitment and retention – because that’s what volunteers are seeking. Potential volunteers want to see flexible opportunities and assurances that they can give back to their communities in small ways at first, which don’t overwhelm their already stretched time.” And, yes, I know, I missed a bit of the purple paint. Maybe I’ll find a few minutes more for that. #microvolunteering #lovols #volunteering

Why do our volunteers choose to get involved in Crosslight Advice and give up their own time to help others? In this clip, Stephen explains what led him to wanting to support others. We are so grateful to our volunteers for making the decision to give back to their local communities and support Crosslight Advice. If you, or anyone you know, are interested in volunteering and would like to find out more about the opportunities at Crosslight Advice please check out the link below. https://lnkd.in/eFuBX-Nw #VolunteersWeek #Volunteers #Volunteering #DebtAdvice #MoneyEducation

After working with nature: 90% of schoolchildren felt they learned something new about the natural world. 84% felt that they are capable of new things when they try. 79% felt that the experience could help their schoolwork. Outdoor space is a major priority for schoolchildren - especially in city boroughs: providing access to outdoor education, significantly reducing the impact of air pollution and increasing local biodiversity… Plus growing food for the school kitchens! As part of their #GreenerFutures Westminster investment programme: Grosvenor gathered over 180 employee volunteers for this year’s #TheBigHelpOut2024. Over a remarkable few months, they have created vibrant outdoor spaces for five Westminster primary schools: St Mary’s Bryanston Square, St Gabriels Primary, St Vincent's Primary, Essendine Primary and the St Marylebone CoE Bridge School. During this initiative, 830 metres of wood was loving transformed into flower beds, planters and outdoor seating. Food and plants were cultivated, outdoor areas painted, facilities prepared, enough soil to fill half the Trafalgar Square fountains was installed - and an orchard was created! Over the last three years, Grosvenor have partnered with us at Groundwork London to help deliver green initiatives in Westminster and create jobs for more than 60 people. We are proud to provide the tasks, materials, tools and ecological expertise to bring their green space goals to fruition. Find out more about how collaboration can revitalise the community: contact Ben Dwyer or Sorcha Conduct.
