Volunteering is our thing! Whether it’s one individual or a team of corporate volunteers, we’ll help you find the people you need.
To advertise volunteering opportunities, just complete the registration form. You only need to register once.
Post your opportunities using the opportunity form. You’ll need to complete one form per opportunity.
Register your organisation with us and we’ll add your volunteer vacancies to the VCEL database, making them accessible to potential volunteers looking for opportunities. To increase the reach, the vacancies can also be accessed via the Volunteer Scotland website.
Registering your organisation also entitles you to access a range of services from VCEL including practical help and information to keep you up to date with policy and best practice in managing volunteers.
Corporate volunteering involves employees engaging in volunteer activity to support charities and community groups during paid working hours. It’s also known as Employer Supported Volunteering (ESV), employee volunteering or volunteering leave. However you describe it, it can offer a wealth of positive benefits for individuals, the community and the businesses themselves.
For employees there’s the opportunity to learn new skills, connect with their local communities, have fun and make new friends.
For employers, it offers a chance to increase employee motivation through collaboration and team-building, while supporting and delivering objectives that truly empower local people and benefit the area.
Many corporate volunteers enjoy their volunteer time so much that they continue their personal involvement outside of work hours. Here at VCEL, we can support all of this by linking businesses with local charities and community groups for volunteering days.
