Andrew Dwerryhouse commented: “Win or lose we are winners because we place CSR central to all that we do as a company, we feel incredibly proudand it was a great evening all round. It is fantastic to be recognised as a finalist for The Corporate Social Responsibility category especially when the other nominees were much larger organisations. Congrats to our friends over at Peel Ports on winning the CSR award, definitely no hard feelings and we should all keep on doing more of the same. On the evening itself we were joined by a number of our younger apprentices from Wild Thang which we hope highlights our commitment to Corporate Social Responsibility, taking into account our economic, social and environmental impact in the way we operate as a business. We have aligned our business values, purpose and strategy embedding responsible and ethical principles into everything we do, while working in partnership together with our colleagues, clients, suppliers and our local community, this is testament to all the staff at Wild Thang and the type of culture we are trying to develop”

 

We will be back next year hopefully with an even stronger application.
