📊 The Value of Volunteering | Celebrating During Volunteers’ Week

As we celebrate Volunteers’ Week (1-7 June), it’s the perfect time to reflect on the huge role volunteers play in strengthening communities across the UK.

For more than 40 years, Volunteers' Week has provided an opportunity to recognise and thank those who generously give their time, skills and expertise to help others.

Across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, volunteers are making a real difference:

✨ 14.2 million people formally volunteered at least once a month
✨ £4.6 billion in productivity gains added to the UK economy in 2024
✨ 25 million people volunteered informally in the past year

At WRS Insurance Brokers, we’re proud to support the that make this possible, helping them create safe, welcoming environments where volunteers thrive.

Let’s continue to celebrate, support, and empower volunteers this week and all year round.

As part of Benefact Group’s Big Give Back Week, Fran, James and Brandon volunteered at Stanway Primary School’s PTA Colour Run, proudly sponsored by WRS Insurance Brokers.

It was a fantastic afternoon in the sunshine, with runners of all ages taking part, all to help raise funds for the PTA.

Although we’re not sure the pink dye will be disappearing anytime soon…😆

A brilliant event for a great cause!
