Get involved in corporate volunteering or team-building days
Corporate volunteering or team-building days can boost staff morale and productivity levels, while also helping local projects.
Talk to community food initiatives and community-owned venues in your area and find out what would be genuinely useful to them. A good volunteering experience is one which is mutually beneficial to both those volunteering and those hosting the volunteers.

Don’t be surprised if there is a financial cost attached to the volunteering process—the host organisation needs to spend time to support your team, and that time also needs to be paid for. Team-building activities could include office cookery classes, building raised beds in a community garden, or refreshing the paintwork at a city farm.
