Hinckley & Rugby Building Society are delighted to have been nominated for ‘Outstanding Contribution’ in seven categories at the annual Leicestershire Cares awards, with an additional three members of staff being nominated individually for the charity’s Education Volunteer of the year category.
Leicestershire Cares provides volunteer opportunities to businesses local to Leicestershire and introduces its member companies to local projects and organisations that are in need of support. Throughout a decade of partnership with the charity, the Society has been involved with many of the organisation’s projects.
