Business in the Community

Business in the Community is the main employee volunteering programme in the U.K. Employees give their time and skills to local charitable and not-for-profit organisations free of charge to help the communities in which they live and work.

You can get help through the Cares programme, which provides free make-over's for your premises or gardens, and ProHelp or Skills Bank with employees, including lawyers, architects , HR, business development, etc. who give their time and expertise for free.

We also run the Business Action on Homelessness programme, which is a unique partnership between leading business, homelessness agencies and the Government. The Campaign was launched in 1998 to change perceptions of homelessness and to assist homeless people in gaining employment and independent living.
