Funded by WCVA’s Volunteering Wales Strategic Grant, Foothold Cymru have developed a guide for those wishing to set up an EVS or ESV.
Employee Volunteering Schemes (EVS) or Employer Supported Volunteering (ESV) as it’s sometimes known can be a very effective means of adding a range of specialist knowledge and skills to an organisation, or gain an extra pairs of hands to help deliver the services on offer. This is when a business enables its employees to contribute to their local community through volunteering activities undertaken within normal working hours.
