Other ways we SHAPE CULTURE FOR GOOD HOW COLLEAGUES HAVE DONATED THEIR TIME AND MONEY ITV encourages permanent and fixed-term colleagues to use up to three paid days a year to volunteer. In 2023, 668 people booked a volunteering day at ITV, which equated to a total of 921 volunteering days used in total. ITV’s Internal Comms team collectively used their volunteering time as a team day with the Children’s Book Project. From sorting through the donations and making bunting out of old tattered books to organising the books and delivering them to schools and food banks, the team got involved across the board. Volunteering felt purposeful, rich and well organised. This is an experience and learning I’d never have had without ITV offering volunteering days. It was a brilliant day for the team to bond and connect outside of work, and a shared experience where we discussed how we could do more to help.” Alice Colarusso, Director of Internal Communications at ITV whose team took part in a volunteering day with the Children’s Book Project.
