      <image:title>Expedia Group - Month of Caring - "We've worked with Expedia for at least 4 years now and every year I'm so impressed by the genuine warmth, interest, empathy and enthusiasm the team show. As with every other year we've partnered up, the group got stuck in and created such a fun and electric atmosphere in the room.  They really worked hard to include people and the older neighbours left in such a good mood. The majority of the people we work with live alone, so an afternoon of great company makes such a huge difference and will mean more than you know ... we couldn't be more grateful."</image:title>

      <image:title>Frontline volunteering - Conversational English</image:title>
      <image:caption>Conversational English activities provide community-based support for Islington-based people seeking asylum, whilst they await a decision on their status. Many asylum seekers will have recently arrived to the UK and can struggle to navigate in their new surroundings. Opportunities to take part in stimulating activities are all key to improving their welfare and knowledge of English language whilst meeting new people. The two types of Conversational English activities are: - Business English. Volunteers will participate in a Business English class and engage the participants in conversations around jobs and careers. - Tour around King's Cross area. Volunteers will accompany a small group of asylum seekers on a walk in the King’s Cross area while engaging in conversations about the nearby landmarks.</image:caption>
