'˜Staff at the council can take two paid days for volunteer work to get out there, roll up their sleeves and make a difference to our communities.
'˜If we could get businesses and charities working together then we could really start to see the benefits on the ground.
'˜Businesses can offer whatever skills they have from administrative support, fund-raising, marketing expertise to help with IT advice. '˜
