Supporting the communities we live and work in is an important part of what we do, and our Community Giving Pot helps us to achieve this.
Our employees can apply for funding to support groups, causes, and people in their local community.
Our Social Value Committee recently met for the first time this year to approve a range of applications. It’s fantastic to be able to support such a diverse range of events and causes, championing social value and giving back where it matters most. Here’s a snapshot of the amazing causes we’re proud to have supported through this round of donations:
• St. Laurence's Church, Chorley – Providing free meals, courses, and events through their Wellness Hub.
• Our Lady Star of the Sea School, Lytham St Annes – Contributing to their Forest School initiative.
•Dovedale Nursing Home, Ingol – Supporting residents living with dementia.
• The Woodland Trust - Smithills Estate – Helping create a vibrant wildlife habitat while preserving historical features and walkways.
• The Zone Plymouth – Offering essential services like mental health support, housing assistance, and educational programs for young people.
• Star Gate Inn Project – Supporting a sponsored run from Pevensey to Rye, bringing together VolkerStevin employees and families across the south-east England.
