Corporate volunteering, also known as Employer Supported Volunteering (ESV) is where employees of a company or organisation engage in voluntary activities during their working hours or as part of their company’s social responsibility initiatives.

Some organisations do this by having a group volunteering day, others give volunteering days to their staff to take them throughout the year. Whichever corporate volunteering model you use, Sefton 4 Good and Volunteer Centre Sefton can help you find the right volunteering activities for your team.

Support Sefton 4 Good

Sefton 4 Good is always looking for help to support local good causes. Some ways you can help are:

• Taking part in fundraising events such as Liverpool Cathedral Abseil, running events, skydives, treks, triathalons and more
• Taking part in community fundraising such as bucket collections or bag packs
• Organising your own fundraiser such as a quiz, raffle, silent auction, sponsored silence or wine and cheese tasting
• Support via payroll giving
• Match funding
• Donating equipment to local charitable groups, organisations requiring the items or responding to immediate need such as the war in Ukraine
• Hold a training session for local community organisations if you work in a sector relevant to them
• Offering staff time to support local good causes in the Sefton community such as gardening, conservation, refurbishment or warehouse support at foodbanks (see more below)
