Children's Hospice Association Scotland (CHAS)

Employer Supported Volunteering is literally what it says - employers supporting their staff to volunteer. Employers can support volunteering in many ways, including officially recognising the skills and experience gained through volunteering, giving staff time away from work to volunteer or by allowing the use of premises and equipment to support voluntary activities.

For example, staff at BAE Systems undertook several projects, including gardening, cataloguing photographs, helping in our charity shop, stocktaking, developing spreadsheets and displays.
