- Community: long-term links with local organisations like the Hallé orchestra, Forever Manchester, The Convoy of Happiness and Tameside 4 Good
- Professional Development: achieved an Investors in People (IIP) Gold standard, as well as their ‘Health and Wellbeing Good Practice Award’.
Phil Jones, managing director of Brother UK, said: “Our job as the UK subsidiary of a multinational is to ‘think local’ on all elements of our citizenship activity. And with our headquarters in Europe and Japan, we must consider all elements of our global citizenship too. I am pleased to report that in the last year, we have continued to make excellent progress both internally and externally.”
