Local community
Supporting the local community
SEGRO is committed to contributing to the long-term vitality of the communities in which it operates.
We will help improve the skills of local people, particularly the disadvantaged to enhance their career and employment opportunities, by investing in local
training and education programmes.
Equally, we will enhance the spaces around our buildings, working with local partners to ensure we meet the needs of our communities with a focus on health and wellbeing.
SEGRO is already engaged with local schools and community partners to create a Community Investment Plan fit for the current and future needs of the local community. For example, in collaboration with Oaklands College, LINKS Academy and Batchwood School we are already working to inspire the future generation in construction and logistics careers, through on-site workshops and work experience.
Employment and skills
We will help support those that face barriers to work to increase their confidence and skills to access employment opportunities created on site.
Education
Our goal is to inspire and prepare young people for the world of work, through careers advice, site visits and masterclasses, in collaboration with local partners and employers.
Health and wellbeing
Our aim is to support the health and wellbeing of the local community through a range of projects including reinvigorating outdoor community spaces and enhancing biodiversity in local areas.
