Our employee-led volunteering programme

We're proud to offer an employer-led volunteering programme with community activities for our colleagues and their teams throughout the year. In addition, we also provide one day’s paid leave per annum for a volunteering activity to support our colleagues' personal and professional development.

For Volunteers Week, we spoke to our Digital Services Director Amanda Van Duyvenvoorde about her volunteering work with St Catherine's Hospice, Lancashire:

"I had been looking for an opportunity to join a company as a board member to broaden my skills and knowledge in my current role as Digital Services Director. I wasn’t looking for a paid role, but I was looking for something where I could make a difference.

"It’s the work that St Catherine's does that appealed to me - and their values are similar to ours at Progress Housing Group.

"I am incredibly proud of the difference St Catherine's makes to people and families at a very difficult time." - Mandy

Volunteering is a big part of our commitment to creating and maintaining resilient and strong communities. We're making a difference in the communities that we serve, and we're investing in our people and their personal and professional development.
