We're seeking dedicated business men and women to join our Peterborough Business Support Group in aid of the NSPCC. Our group meets bi-monthly and hosts five events annually. Within our committee, sub-committees manage different events, allowing members to leverage their unique strengths.
About Us:
For years, the business community has been instrumental in transforming childhoods across the UK. We're now building a new network of business advocates in the East of England to unlock opportunities with future corporate partners.

- Acting as an ambassador for the NSPCC within your professional network, championing our work and raising awareness.
- Providing sector-specific insights and advice.
- Supporting fellow board members.
- Introducing like-minded individuals to join the board.
Our network meets three times a year to discuss future plans, emerging trends, and common challenges within their companies.
Who We're Looking For:
This role is open to individuals from all walks of life. We especially want to hear from you if you are:
- Passionate about helping young people and children.
- An experienced leader and professional in your sector, eager to apply your expertise to support the NSPCC.
- Connected to the business community in the East of England and excited about using business to positively impact the lives of children and young people in local communities.
Get Involved:
The NSPCC keeps 1 million children a year safe from abuse and neglect. Volunteer today and join our fight for every childhood.
Safer Recruitment
As an organisation, we are committed to creating and fostering a culture that promotes safeguarding and the welfare of all children and adults at risk. Our safer recruitment practices support this by ensuring that there is a consistent and thorough process of obtaining, collating, analysing and evaluating information from and about candidates to ensure that all persons appointed are suitable to work with our children and adults.
Trauma Informed
At the NSPCC we are on a journey to becoming a trauma-informed organisation for the children, young people and families that we work with, as well as our staff and volunteers. To be trauma-informed is one of the guiding principles that shape and guide our 2021-2031 Strategy. This means understanding the nature of adversity, trauma, and resilience so that we can work towards reducing and preventing further harm and promoting recovery and healing. Coming to work at the NSPCC will provide the opportunity for you to join us in our commitment to becoming a trauma-informed organisation.
Volunteer Expenses
We believe that volunteering with the NSPCC shouldn’t leave you out of pocket. We really appreciate your time, and will reimburse expenses in line with our volunteer expenses policy.
