Corporate Social Responsibility

We are aware that the running of our business will, in many ways, affect our place of work, the community, and the wider environment in which we operate.

We believe that the way we run our business can and should make a positive difference in these areas and we aim to ensure that continued efforts are made to achieve that.

That’s why we’ve decided to give all employees 7.5 hours each year to undertake CSR activities within their local community.

Full-time members of staff, contracted to work 37 hours per week, will be allocated 7.5 hours per annum, and part-time members of staff will be allocated a pro-rated number of hours, depending on their working hours, to undertake CSR activities on behalf of the company at events recommended by our Environmental and Social Sustainability, Events, and Wellbeing teams.
