Dwayne Fields, the UK’s Chief Scout, is advocating for a new initiative that would grant workers 35 hours of paid leave for volunteering each year. He believes this measure would enhance worker satisfaction and productivity while benefiting communities. Fields discussed the transformative power of volunteering and shared his personal experiences overcoming adversity, emphasizing the importance of kindness and community support. His recent visits to charitable organizations in Peterborough further highlighted the positive impact of volunteerism on individuals and the community at large.
