60 volunteers from Capita and Capita Symonds’ Sheffield offices recently spent three days revamping a local primary school.
The voluntary scheme – which was organised in conjunction with South Yorkshire Cares, a Business in the Community initiative – saw employees from Capita’s local offices – Capita Symonds, Capita Hartshead, Capita Group Marketing and Veredus – helping to spruce up the nearby Springfield School.
Led by Project Manager Andrew Borthwick, a Capita Symonds team redecorated the school’s IT suite, school reception area and staff room kitchen.
Michelle Tilney, Community Coordinator of Business in the Community said: “We are really pleased that so many volunteers joined this exciting project. This project created a colourful and lively environment for the children to study, staff to work in and visitors to enjoy.”
Andy Borthwick added: “This was a great opportunity to make a real difference in the local community and for our employees from a wide range of business to work together. We have been
working with Business in the Community on a range of projects and we look forward to many more to come”.
