Social value 2019/20

We pride ourselves in adding social value to our communities, delivering a wide range of services that support and enhance people’s quality of life.

Social value is incredibly important to us, and is a crucial factor in the way we conduct our business. Social value describes how through our business activities, we work towards improving the economic, social and environmental wellbeing of the people living in our communities. These benefits can cover a wide range of activities, including the creation of apprenticeships and jobs, sub-contracting to local social enterprises, or simply working with residents to create a community garden.
