Together with our colleagues, we are committed to making a positive difference to our local communities.
We pride ourselves in providing a safe and inclusive environment for all, as well as facilitating skill development and encouraging colleagues to participate in volunteering opportunities and access wellbeing resources.
Social inclusion and wellbeing
Our aim is to build a diverse, equitable and inclusive workplace creating a sense of belonging for everyone, driving forward meaningful and positive change. We value differences and people from all walks of life and, together, we’ll build a stronger community. Our focus on Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging (DEI&B) and wellbeing empowers the colleague voice, encourages social connection and collaboration, and enables everyone to thrive in an inclusive environment.
Empowered Communities
Empowered Communities
We’re proud of the contributions our colleagues have made to communities and to our chosen charities. Our charity partners include AVUK, Future First and our 2025 colleague-voted charity Cancer Research UK.
We encourage our colleagues to take their volunteering day, participate in fundraising activities such as our annual charity challenge or FUNdraiser Week, or take advantage of Payroll Giving for a more efficient way to support their chosen charity.
We’re also proud of our customers, who in 2024, raised £20,000 in online donations for our charity partner AVUK.
