Volunteering through Neighbourly is about offering help where it's genuinely needed by local causes in the community
When talking about Neighbourly to your colleagues, it’s important that it’s positioned as needs-led volunteering.
First and foremost, this is about offering help where it's needed to good causes in your local community.
That’s how we can have the biggest impact together.

Use the text below to help position Neighbourly's need approach to volunteering with colleagues. We have provided a short, medium and long version that can be used in newsletters, emails and intranet pages to help promote and position volunteering via Neighbourly.
Short version: Volunteering at Neighbourly is different. It reflects the needs in the community at that moment, from the people in the community that know what’s needed - the local good causes.
Medium version: Volunteering at Neighbourly is different. It’s roll up your sleeves, share your skills, knowledge and experience, bring your energy, and lend a hand where it’s needed. As a team, in a pair or as an individual. It reflects the real needs in the community at that moment, from the people in the community that really know what’s needed - the local good causes.
Long version: Volunteering at Neighbourly is different. It’s real. It’s roll up your sleeves, share your skills, knowledge and experience, bring your energy, and lend a hand where it’s needed ‘real’. As a team, in a pair or as an individual, in person or remotely - there is no one shape to the support that’s needed. It reflects the real needs in the community at that moment, from the people in the community that really know what’s needed - the local good causes.
