We play an active part in the communities where we operate.
Our approach involves our community partnership programme where we work with charities and organisations to achieve mutual benefit. One of our most successful and long-standing programmes is our education service which offers a range of current learning activities for school pupils of all ages.
We also support our employees’ efforts in the community through our Get Involved scheme. This incorporates a range of programmes offering something for everyone – whether it’s raising money, giving time or simply donating to a worthy cause through payroll giving. We’ve improved Get Involved even further this year and now offer employees up to six days a year in company time to volunteer as a way to learn new skills. And our new Olympic sport grant offers time and money to our budding Olympians in the run-up to the 2012 games.
An important part of our activities is ensuring stakeholders are aware of what difference we are making and how they can get involved. Campaigns such as Tap into Water are designed to engage key audiences and raise awareness of our activities.
