Background
In alignment to Social Value Model Award Criteria, ‘Improving Community Integration’, Fedcap held our first annual volunteering day, last year, in September 2023. We witnessed 391 people come together across our delivery partners and internal employees to respond to the cost-of-living crisis by supporting local charities and project in the communities in which we deliver. Seeing so many of our people, partners, and members of the community come together inspired and encouraged long-term social sustainability across our business, which we strived to maintain and enhance through our Community Day held on 20 September 2024.
Our impact
On 20th September 2024, we inspired 2 of our Delivery Partners to attend for our community day; supporting 3 employees at Momentic and 20 of our employees at Palladium. In total, there were 307 internal volunteers who spent a total of 1,545 hours supporting 34 charities across the UK. That amounts to a fantastic Social Value ROI figure of £26,200! We also inspired our colleagues at Fedcap Canada and Fedcap Inc to partner with us, which equated to 483 total internal and external volunteers over 2300 hours.
