Supporting Shelter since 2001
Like Shelter, we believe everyone should have a place they can call home. We’re proud to be celebrating 20 years of this partnership. Colleagues and members have rallied behind this charity and we’ve:
- raised more than £6.7 million
- helped almost 100,000 people facing bad housing and homelessness
- supported Shelter’s helplines, for those facing homelessness
- worked together on policy and campaigns that make a difference to people in housing need.
Supporting our people to volunteer and fundraise
Helping us all to make a big difference, we:
- offer two days paid volunteering leave a year. We’ve offered an additional three days for coronavirus related volunteering.
- match fundraising for UK registered charities, up to £100 per colleague.
- have a grant pot of £200,000 each year. Colleagues can apply for a grant of up to £10,000 for a charity close to their heart.
- enable colleagues to donate the last pence of their monthly pay to one of our charity partners each month.
- have a network of more than 450 social investment champions encouraging their colleagues to get involved.
