What makes a company count in the community?

Recognising that how a company recruits, purchases and invests can create opportunities to build thriving communities as well as stronger businesses; we believe companies can count by:

  • Identifying

    the social issues that are most relevant to their business and most pressing to the communities they work with.

  • Working in partnership

    with community partners respecting, recognising and leveraging the contribution that they make to investing in the community.

  • Inspiring and supporting

    their employees, customers and suppliers to share time, skills and resources in support of their community programmes.

  • Planning and delivering

    against their community investment targets using appropriate resources.

  • Measuring, evaluating and communicating

    the difference that their investment has in the community and on their business.
