St James Place staff volunteer at Paternoster House
Staff from St James Place Wealth Management, based in Cirencester, gave up their time to volunteer at Paternoster House.
A team of five staff from St James Place gave up their time to support Paternoster House and transform their garden. The team spent a whole day making the garden lovely for the residents to enjoy over the summer. The volunteers have kindly visited Paternoster House once a year for many years and the support makes a real difference to all who get to enjoy the gardens.
St James Place allow their staff 2 volunteering days per year where they can give time and their skills to a local charity or community organisation. Over 90% of their staff take up this opportunity either through well-established volunteering arrangements or self-driven activities by their employees.
Sharon Dewsbury, Activities Co-ordinator said, “We love welcoming the team from St James Place, many of the volunteers have visited Paternoster House in the past so it’s like welcoming back old friends. Over the years St James Place have helped make our garden the beautiful haven it is today through their volunteering and through kind donations too”.
