Jane O’Driscoll | Zurich
has had a community programme in Swindon for over 25 years, which combines
donations from our staff with an annual contribution from the business.
Our local annual grant programme provides support to many local voluntary
organisations. In addition we have an active employee volunteer programme
where over 1,000 of our Swindon based staff share their professional
and personal skills volunteering in the Community. Zurich seeks to be
a responsible corporate citizen and considers it an important part of
successful business performance. We are therefore very pleased to support
this Swindon Cares initiative and help to encourage schools and businesses
to support the people of Swindon.
