Social Impact Hub
Volunteering at Domestic and General.
Help make a difference.
Welcome to our Domestic and General volunteering hub. Domestic and General encourages all its employees to develop and harness their skills to add value to the many voluntary, community, and sustainability organisations that rely on volunteers to achieve their objectives.
To support this, Domestic and General allow employees to take up to 1 working day* of paid work time per year for community volunteering that is of benefit to their local and global communities.
Whether you want to share your professional skills, support a local charity, contribute to environmental projects, or simply give back to a cause you care about, you'll find a range of opportunities to get involved.
Sign up today and help us create a lasting impact for people and the planet.
