Community work

Supporting our local community

We’re passionate about helping our local community and are continually seeking ways to create positive change for our internal and external stakeholders.

As part of our commitment to becoming a net zero company by 2030, we’re increasing our efforts to support local causes, charities and businesses.

Corporate staff volunteering programme

The Covid-19 pandemic highlighted the need for community resilience and prompt action to support those in need. We know that our colleagues feel passionately about many charities and organisations and want to support those in need, which is why we’ve launched a staff volunteering programme to give individuals dedicated time during the working day to use their skills and give back to society.

The high uptake in staff participation not only reflects positively on our company culture, but it helps to boost corporate social responsibility efforts.

We’ve donated over £22,500 to local charities and causes so far this year

Giving back to the community

Litter picking with Rochdale Council

We kicked off our give back days this year by litter picking with Rochdale Council.

Members from across the Crown Oil Group litter picked at a local park to help improve the cleanliness of the local environment and safety of the local community!

Defibrillators for the Hollins Village Community Centre!

We donated £1300 to the Hollins Village Community Centre to help them purchase defibrillators from the Community Heartbeat Trust!

We volunteered at the Age UK Jubilee Centre in Bury

Our volunteers offered much-needed support and company for the elderly at the Age UK Jubilee Centre.

The team got involved in running a bingo quiz while chatting with the members and preparing food in the kitchen. We’re incredibly proud of our volunteers that have made a huge difference to the lives of the elderly that benefit from the centre’s services.

We climbed Scafell Pike in support of BOSP

We’re proud to have climbed Scafell Pike to help raise money for BOSP (Brighter Opportunities for Special People).

BOSP are a charity based in the South West that provide fun and care for children and young people with complex disabilities or life-limiting conditions. We had 20 volunteers that made the climb and they raised a whopping £1230 for the charity!

Staff have completed over 100 hours of volunteering to date, and we plan to double this in the next year.
