For one day last month, our #WelcomeOffices team volunteered for the homeless in partnership with Refuge Network International, a charity set up to fight against poverty. It supports the homeless by providing meals, supplies, clothing, and advice. The first half of the day consisted of distributing food, clothes, and toiletries to those in need. The second half was spent on mobile outreach, as the team was tasked with finding those struggling with homelessness on the streets around Central London and offering them pre-packed food. Noore Boksh, Property Administrator, who helped organise the event and helped on the day, said: “Our Welcome team was proud to give back to the community for this #CharityDay event. Throughout the programme, the team engaged with some of the service users, who shared their stories and expressed how useful the volunteering sessions were to them, and how beneficial it was to their community.” Find out more here: https://bit.ly/3BABcdg #LifeAtWorkman #corporatevolunteering

I was pleased to lead in the organisation of our recent corporate responsibility day with Refuge Network International which took place last Thursday. My colleagues and I volunteered in a soup kitchen in Central London where we prepared and served meals, and participated in outreach walks to deliver food to those experiencing homelessness. I highly recommend Refuge Network International for anyone looking to arrange a corporate volunteering day - please do reach out and get involved. A very rewarding and humbling experience!

As part of The Lord Mayor's Appeal City Giving Day on Tuesday, the Augmentum team had the pleasure of volunteering with Refuge Network International, assisting with homeless outreach in the Charing Cross area. On a mission to fight social injustices and alleviate human suffering, the work Refuge Network does is extremely important. Since setting up, they have distributed over 400,000 meals in over 13 countries, hosting up to 130 community events a year to help end poverty.

Yesterday, I had the pleasure to meet Charles Gimoh, the inspiring leader who established Refuge Network International, to help refugees, homeless and people in need, empowering communities and promoting equitable access to food, housing, healthcare, education, and an adequate standard of living for individuals and families.💙 As a part of IHG Volunteering Days, Myself and 12 colleagues joined Charles and his team to help with their outdoor kitchen, where we prepared and served meals to over 300 local service users. As the charity relies entirely on volunteers, we were proud to be able to help where we could. If you are able to dedicate time or donate, you can find Charles and his team Tuesdays and Thursdays at the Zimbabwe Embassy on Agar Street, The Strand in Central London!

Yesterday afternoon, the VMO2 team and I volunteered with Refuge Network International, a charity which is a poverty alleviation and community empowerment non-profit promoting equitable access to food, housing, healthcare, education, and an adequate standard of living for individuals and families. An extremely rewarding afternoon where we helped serve up lunch and provide survival packs to homeless people, rough sleepers, and struggling individuals. It was such an eye opener for us all and we were incredibly grateful to be able to help out. Thanks to Virgin Media O2, I was able to use one of my Take 5 days to give back. ❤ #TakeFive #Volunteering #TeamVirginMedia&O2 Charles Gimoh Kirsten Taylor Helen Nicklin Baljit Mander Sandra P.
