VAL: Digital Fellowship Project

Voluntary Action Leeds is seeking insights from organisations that have worked with the tech sector through employee volunteering to help inform a new fellowship initiative focused on enabling tech businesses to share their technical skills with VCSE organisations and communities.

This research, in partnership with the Leeds Digital Volunteering Partnership (LDVP), aims to explore the benefits and barriers of tech sector volunteering and develop a scalable city-wide model for digital volunteering.

We are particularly interested in learning from organisations that have partnered with tech businesses, focusing on the impact, challenges, and best practices for building and sustaining these relationships. Your input will help shape a framework for brokering tech sector volunteering and contribute to a broader understanding of how these partnerships can benefit both businesses and the communities they support.

If your organisation has experience in this area, we would love to hear from you—please get in touch with Katie Cecilia (katie.cecilia@val.org.uk) to share your experience and contribute to this important research.
