“…The number of people living with dementia globally is currently estimated at 50 million 1,2 . However, the global number of people living with dementia is steadily increasing, and this figure is likely to reach 150 million by 2050 3 . People with dementia generally require high levels of care with most of that care provided by family caregivers.…”

Rationale, aims, and objectives: There is a general lack of awareness and understanding of dementia within ethnic minority groups in the United Kingdom. There is also a dearth of research involving ethnic minority caregivers about reducing barriers to accessing services and optimizing engagements with religiously tailored interventions. This paper reports findings from a qualitative study that examined the barriers to health care service use in the Bangladeshi community living in the United Kingdom. Methods: The research draws on findings from a doctoral level research study on understanding dementia among the Bangladeshi community in England. The data for the doctoral research were gathered in two ways: (a) focus group discussions and (b) semi-structured interviews. All data were audio-recorded and analysed using thematic analysis. NVivo software was used to aid transcribing, coding, and interpretation of emergent themes. Results: The data showed that there were some barriers experienced by participants due to their religious and cultural beliefs and practices with other barriers related to the complexity of the UK health care system. Gender-based caregiving also appeared to interfere with religious ideologies while religiously appropriate health care services were deemed of great importance for successfully accessing those services. Conclusions: The findings provide an understanding of the experiences of the Bangladeshi community when seeking to access mainstream UK health care services and may help to provide useful directions for future research.

“…Psychological motivation has also been recognized as an important individuallevel antecedent. Overall, however, both qualitative and quantitative investigations have found that employees who engage in volunteer programs are typically driven by a complex motivational mechanism (Kiviniemi et al, 2002;Peloza and Hassay, 2006;Stukas et al, 2016), which suggests that volunteering intentions may be related to multiple functions (Rodell et al, 2016) such as value shaping, understanding enhancement, protective, social and career functions (Stukas et al, 2016), and prosocial, social, and learning opportunity motivations (Hurst et al, 2019). Alongside these motivations, there may be other psychological factors that hold some impact over an employee's volunteering decision, such as psychological pressure and psychological ownership (Ainsworth, 2020).…”

Many organizations encourage their employees to participate in charitable activities as part of their corporate social responsibility strategies. As a result, there has been an increased research interest in employee volunteering behavior. However, while previous research on employee volunteering decisions has focused on both individual-level and organizational-level factors, there has been less focus on peer involvement and volunteer cause proximity. To go some way to filling this research area, this paper conducted two studies to examine the possible effects of colleague participation, colleague position and public cause proximity on employee volunteering intentions. Study 1 found that colleague participation and public cause proximity had significant effects on employee volunteering, and Study 2 found that power distance played a moderating role in the relationship between colleague position and employee volunteering. This study contributes to theoretical research on employee volunteering and provides some information to assist firms retain engaged volunteers.
