Our CSR goes far beyond internal practices and procedures
We are committed to improving healthy living by supporting local sports initiatives for our employees, and with the wider community of schools and local clubs, to provide opportunities for advancing the physical and mental health of all. We are also committed to helping schools and colleges with training and work experience.
Please find below some recent examples of our work within the community:
Chislehurst and Sidcup Grammar School
We sponsored the girls netball team, which enabled them to keep the team running and purchase new kit and equipment, please click on the image to see a picture of our managing director Phil Yardley with the team and click here to see a letter of thanks from the head teacher.

London College of Communication
We arranged for a group of 12 students from the college to spend half a day at SPM, they were given a guided tour of all departments followed by a question and answer session which they all found very useful for the print media degree that they are studying for.

10 Kilometre Run
We sponsored Sinead Lee from the Selfridges design team to do a 10 kilometre run in aid of the charity No Surrender, Sinead raised nearly £2,000 which went towards funding services for young adults that have been affected by cancer. Please click image to see picture.
Work Experience
We regularly have year 10 students visit the company for two weeks to do work experience from their school, this is very beneficial to the students who get to experience day to day working in all departments.
London to Brighton Bike Ride
Our managing director, Phil Yardley, has recently completed the London to Brighton bike ride to raise money for the British Heart Foundation, Phil raised around £500 for this worthy cause and we thought he may need their services at the end but was ok. Please click image to see picture.
