Less chasing, more impact

CSR teams spend too much time on WhatsApp threads, attendance sheets and finding last year's receipts. CorpHands gives that time back.

Problems we solve

Community programmes are hard to run on WhatsApp and Excel

These are the issues HR and CSR teams tell us about most.

01

Scattered organisation

Sign-ups, reminders and attendance live in Teams chats, WhatsApp groups, emails and spreadsheets, and get lost.

02

Weeks lost at report time

Deductible donations for the tax return, community investment figures and sustainability report data take weeks to collect, and nobody can trace where they came from.

03

Donations below the line

A donation only counts for tax relief if the charity has a CHY number in force and gets at least €250 in the period. Nobody checks until the return is due.

04

Charity details hard to track

It is hard to keep each charity's Registered Charity Number, CHY number and its expiry date, and documents up to date, and reviews are missed.

05

Donations mixed with sponsorship

Community spending sits in separate spreadsheets, so nobody can say what was a donation, what was sponsorship and which charities had a CHY number.

06

Low participation

The same few people volunteer every time, and most staff never hear about activities.

07

Photos without consent

Pictures of beneficiaries get shared without permission. Under the GDPR, consent should be on record first.

08

Untracked volunteer leave

Paid volunteering days are not recorded, so managers don't know who is away.

09

No proof of impact

Nobody measures whether activities helped anyone, or whether employees found them worthwhile.

10

No group-wide picture

Groups with many companies and sites can't see one combined view.
