Corporate Volunteering

The trust really appreciates the help we receive from our wider community. We know that in addition to our regular volunteers, there are lots of organisations that are keen to support us through one-off volunteering days or by working more closely on secondments and longer-term volunteering.

We are starting to work with a number of organisations to create these types of opportunities. We are keen to find the right balance between fulfilling opportunities for individuals and companies and activities that will really help benefit the Trust, so we are looking for enthusiastic and committed individuals and groups to work with us on a number of opportunities. The types of activities we have created so far include:

• Small groups volunteering for a day, eg wrapping/delivering Christmas presents
• Groups helping with gardening projects / murals etc.
• Groups helping with events, eg our Royal Berks Charity fundraising events
• Individuals offering to use their skills for specific projects or to undertake secondments with us, eg IT experts developing a website

We are continually creating volunteering opportunities you might be able to get involved with, so even if there is nothing available now, we will keep your details and contact you when things are available.

If you are interested in corporate volunteering, then please do get in touch and let us know the type of project you might be able to help with, the number of volunteers you would like to provide and if there are any specific skills you can offer.

Depending on the type of volunteering you get involved with, you may be subject to our Trust recruitment checks, eg DBS and occupational health.

If you are interested in corporate volunteering, please get in touch by contacting voluntary.services@royalberkshire.nhs.uk or 0118 322 8396.
