Our Responsibilities Our community investment framework

Our business generates funds for community and voluntary groups that are addressing urgent social needs. We also want to contribute as a business and as individual Camelot employees.

As the result of a consultation with Camelot's employees, we have created Team Camelot, a central Community Investment Framework (CIF) which supports community activity in a number of ways:

Match-funding
We will match monies raised by Camelot employees for registered charities up to £750 per individual per fiscal year for Camelot’s Charity of the Year (COTY), and £500 per individual per fiscal year for other charities.

Team challenges
We encourage teams to organise challenge events in a community setting; recent examples include running a Marie Curie Cancer Care shop, re-decorating a hostel and drop-in centre, and throwing a Christmas party for local autistic children.

Volunteering
All permanent employees can use four hours of their normal working hours per month (pro-rated for employees who work part-time) as volunteering time to work with a charity or voluntary group.

Give As You Earn
Employees can donate to a charity tax free directly through the payroll. Camelot pays the administration charge of this scheme so every penny goes directly to the charity chosen.
