Charity begins at work | Harnham Recruitment post

At Harnham, we believe that charity begins at work. We allow each employee to take one paid charity day off a year, in addition to their annual leave, to work for a charity of their choice. In December 2017, almost every employee in our London office decided to use their charity day to collectively volunteer for a local charity. In the lead up to Christmas, 50 employees went out in small groups daily to volunteer at the Wimbledon Foodbank. Employees generously brought in their own food to donate, and Harnham also donated a £500 supermarket order. Thanks to our volunteering at the Wimbledon foodbank, we contributed to providing help to 889 people in crisis in December 2017. 8 tons of food was donated, sorted and dated, and over 300 food parcels were handed out. In comparison, during November, 352 people were fed, 124 parcels were handed out, and 3 tons of donations were received. In order to keep supporting the Wimbledon Foodbank, employees have the opportunity to donate directly to them through our Payroll Just Giving Scheme. Harnham also matches all donations up to the value of £20.
