We are committed to providing help that can have a long term impact, whether it be helping with literacy and business skills schemes or creating an environment that will provide a better quality of life by painting schools or building playgrounds. Over half our London office spent a day painting a primary school in Tower Hamlets in July 2008. In September 2009 we spent a day clearing overgrown areas of the playground at a primary school in Mile End. Most recently, in July 2010 we visited a childrens playground in Bethnal Green where we spent the day painting and gardening.
Many people within our business want to use their skills and experience to help others and put something back into the local community and our programme allows them to do this.

Corporate Social Responsibility
In 2007 we established a corporate social responsibility programme to cement our commitment and responsibility to support the needs of our local community. We have formed a relationship with the East London Business Alliance who give us access to our local community and help us to identify and respond to their needs appropriately.We are committed to providing help that can have a long term impact, whether it be helping with literacy and business skills schemes or creating an environment that will provide a better quality of life by painting schools or building playgrounds.
