Benefits for organisations
Whether you make the tea, look after a walking group, give time at the local foodbank, coach the under 10's, search for funding, sit on the committee or a bit of it all.
THIS WILL BENEFIT YOU.
Volunteers are the heartbeat of every community organisation, helpers, committee members and everyday people who give their time so others can play, learn and belong.
But the people who support everyone else rarely get support themselves.
Simpact helps change that. We strengthen wellbeing, reduce burnout and build healthier, more sustainable organisations by putting volunteers at the centre.
When the people behind scene are supported, the whole community becomes stronger.
A clear signal that the organisation values your wellbeing and You Matter.

The Backbone Project
The Backbone Project is a preventative health and wellbeing pilot supporting
staff and volunteers within the Community & Voluntary Sector.
Through our person centred, private and confidential health and wellbeing assessments,
trusted conversations and early intervention approach, the project aims to
better understand the pressures quietly affecting the people who hold communities together.
(NO PERSONAL INFORMATION IS SHARED WITH PARTICIPATING ORGANISATIONS)
Alongside practical health checks such as blood pressure, BMI and wellbeing assessments, the project will also gather evidence around hidden pressures within the sector, barriers to support, emotional strain and the value of preventative engagement.
At its heart, The Backbone Project is about recognising the people supporting communities also need supported themselves.
The project was developed through lived experience and long-standing involvement within the sector,
recognising that many people supporting others are often carrying significant emotional,
physical and organisational pressures themselves. Over the next six months,
The Backbone Project will engage with approximately 30 organisations and around 350 staff and volunteers.
The purpose of this pilot is not to replace existing services or create another layer of pressure, but to create safe, approachable opportunities for people to pause, reflect, understand their own health and wellbeing, and access early support where appropriate.
This is not about fixing everything overnight. It is about starting honest conversations earlier, building trust,
understanding need more clearly and exploring what a healthier, more sustainable future for the sector could look like.
Care for you, not correction.
