Blemain Group gives back to the community

The new committee will specialise in providing opportunities for its 400 staff to get involved in community projects by offering hands on support and time within their local community.
 
The Supporting the Community Committee was formed by a cross section of volunteers from the business, and will focus solely on helping small local projects in the Greater Manchester area.
 
Irene Thomas, head of Commercial Underwriting at Blemain Group and Chair of the new committee, said:

“As a business, we have always been active in supporting worthwhile causes and are committed to giving something back to our local community.  The new committee will organise schemes throughout the year which will allow staff at all levels to get involved and contribute to a good cause.”

The committee will help a range of local community organisations from children’s hospitals and youth centres to environmental and urban regeneration projects.
 
Irene continues:

“Making a difference is what it is all about. We already operate in a socially conscious working environment but this committee will put the strategy in place.

"We need to identify more projects than ever before, and we see this as a long-term commitment and look forward to forming lasting relationships with local groups and charities in the Greater Manchester community.”
