PREPARED, PROTECTED AND SUPPORTED
Support before your first activity
Volunteering through Care to Volunteer is designed to be safe for you and for the residents you support. We take care of the checks, the training and the coordination, so you can focus on the people.
Guidance on required checks
Where a role requires a DBS check, Care to Volunteer supports the process, with digital access to relevant progress information.
Safeguarding built in
Clear safeguarding policies, defined boundaries and a straightforward way to raise a concern protect you and the people you support.
Preparation suited to your activity
Practical guidance and relevant training cover communication, boundaries and wellbeing before activities that require them.
Practical support throughout
Use the app to request time, follow approvals, choose an opportunity and record attendance, with programme guidance available along the way.
Non-regulated, meaningful support
You help with companionship, shopping, digital help and conversation. Personal care stays with qualified care providers.
Your contribution recognised
Every completed visit is recorded and verified, so your time counts for you, your team and your employer.
Digital support for a managed service
Care to Volunteer leads programme delivery and participant support. Buddii provides the technology infrastructure for bookings, approvals and activity records, giving organisations clear oversight while our service coordinates the work.
Less administration
A straightforward experience for HR teams and the employees who take part.
Greater participation
Volunteering that is easy to join, so more employees get involved.
Verified Activity
Community activity confirmed and recorded, not self-reported.
Small moments, real connection
You do not need a remarkable skill to make someone’s day
Listening over a cup of tea. Helping someone feel more confident online. Preparing a meal alongside new people. The ordinary things you can offer may be exactly what someone needs.
Choose something that feels right for you. Care to Volunteer organises the practical arrangements and preparation, leaving space for the human part: being there, taking part and getting to know your community.
