Reach Volunteering

If you’re part of a charity, research shows that the people you serve are likely to be impacted most by climate change and nature loss. During ACEVO’s Climate Week, a panel discussion concluded that charities can’t afford to stand back and wait for others to act. Now, thanks to a newly launched resource from NPC (New Philanthropy Capital) there’s a free practical guide to how you can help. The Everyone’s Environment Pathway is a step-by-step guide to support charities and contains key actions to take, important questions to ask and common concerns, alongside inspiring case studies and links to further resources. Explore the Pathway and start taking positive action now: https://buff.ly/3AYEkPT And don’t forget, if you’d like to take action on a personal level, take a look at all the roles available on the Reach website and Volunteer for Climate. https://buff.ly/3Q5FPko #ClimateWeek #Climate #EveryonesEnvironment #Charity #VolunteerForClimate

This is a great opportunity to get involved in a vitally important debate. We'll be taking part and hope as many of the organisations we work with as possible will also sign up to have their say. 💪

💫 Meet the Team: Today we’re putting the spotlight on Miranda Murdoch-Hughes, our Service Co-ordinator with many hats. 💫 Miranda provides valuable support to our Service and Trustee Works Teams, as well as lending her creative skills to help with posting to our social media channels. Wearing her Service Team hat, Miranda helps process roles, organisations, and volunteers and answers email and voicemail queries. She is the Service Team’s go to person to advise on questions relating to organisations that wish to join the platform. Changing hats to the TrusteeWorks Team, she supports the consultants to deliver outstanding results for their clients, creating engaging candidate packs and sourcing excellent potential candidates. Wearing yet another hat, Miranda also works with the comms team, creating attractive and engaging posts for our social media channels. She is a real creative whizz on Canva. Working across teams in this way, Miranda is a font of all knowledge and an all-round superstar who we all love working with. ⭐ #MeetTheTeam #Employees #BehindTheScenes #ReachVolunteering

Here at at Reach Volunteering we’re spending International Day of Charity in a staff and trustees strategy session looking at how the Citizen story can help us define our purpose and achieve even greater impact for the charities we support. The Citizen story recognises that we are naturally collaborative and can, and want to, work together to make things better. And we need everyone to take part to get the best outcomes for society. We see this willingness and active participation in practice every day in our work with civil society organisations and volunteer-led groups raising up their communities, fighting injustice and tackling the climate and nature crises. So on a day which celebrates charity, we’ll be discussing how to weave solidarity, social cohesion and active participation even more deeply throughout our work. Why not join in too? Find out more about using your skills to volunteer and make a difference on our website: https://buff.ly/2CKm39Y Or explore some of the principles of active participation in our blog and do your bit to share our post to your networks. Together, we can make a difference: https://buff.ly/3CGb1zQ #InternationalDayOfCharity #CharityDay #SupportCharity #GiveBack #Volunteer #ReachVolunteering #CitizenStory #ActiveParticipation #CitizensNotConsumers
