CSR Awards 2010

Corporate Social Responsibility Awards 2010

CLOSING DATE FOR ENTRIES HAS BEEN EXTENDED: FRIDAY 20th AUGUST 2010

The Worcestershire Ambassadors launched its CSR Awards 2010 earlier this year to recognize and applaud businesses across Worcestershire who take CSR seriously and who endeavour to give something back to their community.

The Awards have been masterminded by Chair, Louise Hewett together with the Ambassadors’ management group.  “The Worcestershire Ambassadors want to recognise everything that is great about our county, and all over Worcestershire there are some amazing examples of businesses of all types doing this every day: incorporating CSR into their business lives and recognizing how it can benefit employees, customers, third party relationships, reputation and of course the broader local community.  With the worst of the recession hopefully behind us, it is a reminder for businesses to be looking outside of themselves and thinking about the benefits for themselves and the community of taking CSR seriously. ”

The Worcestershire Ambassadors’ CSR Awards are open to all businesses across the county, whatever size or type and can be entered over the coming months up until Friday 20th August 2010 deadline.  The judging process will see entries narrowed down, ready to announce first the finalists and then the overall winners at a glittering black tie evening reception on 25 November at Sixways.

Closing date for entries: Friday 20th August 2010
