    Our host organisations really appreciate the hard work and results our trainees bring. Here's some feedback from a recent host organisation: "Tom’s initiative and hard work has been an asset to Action on Poverty and our ability to raise funds to reach more people overcoming poverty, and his approach to our communications has made our values and USP sing, while reaching wider audiences than we ever have before." If your non-profit could benefit from hiring a talented trainee, then get in touch today to discuss your requirements: [email protected]

    We’ve just completed the end of year reviews for this year’s cohort of Charityworks trainees, and here are some of the key results: 1. Hosts repeatedly told us how pleased they are with the value for money due to the quality of their trainee 2. Hosts and trainees spoke very highly of the value of their impact research 3. We’re anticipating just over two-thirds of trainees will be continuing in employment with their hosts, securing promotions or continuing in a similar role. If you haven't yet let us know you'd like to host a Charityworks trainee in your non-profit this year - there is still time. Get in touch today at [email protected]

    We're so proud to hear that Avery, one of this year's fantastic Charityworks trainees will be running the London Marathon next year to raise funds for Barnardo's. With Avery's placement at Barnardo's coming to an end, she still wants to help the charity to fundraise. We're inspired by Avery's commitment and wish her the best of luck with this challenge! https://lnkd.in/eY5uttiG

    Our passion is ensuring the non-profit sector benefits from the next generation of talent. We are so pleased to have helped many wonderful charities access this talent, and love hearing their first hand accounts. Hear from Toby Porter, Hospice UK's CEO below: "In my experience (I have used Charityworks in my last 3 roles, and always been thrilled to have done so). You just go with a job vacancy to Charityworks, and they match it against a young person who they have assessed and prepared for interview. You interview the candidate as you would any vacancy and, if you proceed, you pay a small fee. When I joined Hospice UK, I lucked out especially big time, as Charityworks placed Matilde at the end of 2022 in our vacant Executive Assistant role. Her first job after graduation, Matilde has been quite exceptional In this role supporting myself, the Senior Leadership Team and the Board, one of the most talented and popular colleagues I have ever had the privilege to work with. Just under 5% of our workforce, Hospice UK, joined via Charityworks." Toby Porter, Hospice UK CEO

    We recently held our 2024 Charityworks showcase - an opportunity for our brilliant trainees to present the findings from their Impact Research projects. Their research covered an impressive range of topics from 'Stakeholder Engagement' and 'Bringing in Lived Experience' through to 'Marketing and Branding for GenX donors' and 'Impact Measurement'. Their findings have been invaluable to their host organisations. We're so proud of all our trainees, and thank you so much to those who came to the event to talk us through your thought-provoking research! https://lnkd.in/eN4PWEP8

    We love hearing what our host organisations think of their time working with our Charityworks trainees. Here's a perspective from Christian Aid: "We've had the joy of hosting four Charityworks [trainees] and have seen this as an opportunity to build skills and experience that can be transferred into their ongoing careers and in the justice movement." - Campaigns Hiring Manager
