Worcester Bosch has announced a new initiative to celebrate its 60th birthday, which gives its employees the opportunity to volunteer a working day for their charity or community project of choice.
The company has over 1,800 employees nationwide and is looking for Worcester and Clay Cross charity or community-led projects as well as groups that have national reach to put forward as inspiration.
At Worcester Bosch, Corporate Social Responsibility is an intrinsic part of the business that extends beyond the products it manufactures to encompass environmental commitment, social community and the workplace. Giving back to the community for the past 60 years has not only helped the manufacturer support and build lasting connections with the local community but has helped inspire both employees and the next generation of apprentices and young professionals.
Worcester Bosch puts charity and volunteering at the heart of its workforce and community. Every year, employees choose a charity to work alongside and fundraise for. This year, the chosen charity is Mind which provides mental health services. Over the years, hundreds of thousands of pounds have been raised for good causes along with days spent helping local charities including St Richard’s Hospice and Acorns Children’s Hospice.
Victoria Billings, Director of Marketing at Worcester Bosch, comments: “Throughout our 60-year history, warming lives has been an intricate part of our business, not only in the products we manufacture but in the impact we have on those around us. We really want this to shine through during our anniversary by offering a collective 12,600 hours of support from all of our employees.”
If anyone is looking for volunteers and is based in the Worcestershire or Clay Cross area, the company wants to hear from you. Visit www.worcester-bosch.co.uk/60yearvolunteer and fill in the online form.
