About this episode
We both love the idea of The Kinder Shop in Cumbria (thanks AGAIN to Positive News) where items on sale have prices expressed in terms of hours of voluntary work pledged. A great initiative that we hope will cause ripples through more communities.
Technical kerfuffles result from a low battery on the recording equipment, but we eventually overcome these difficulties to continue and move on to discussing the benefits of volunteering and our own experiences and reasons for volunteering. And finally we ponder on the need for companies to think creatively about their CSR strategies and options for volunteering.
