We take pride in supporting community programmes across the globe.
Our mission is to serve communities of learners, educators and researchers, and we fulfil that mission not only by selling books and journals. We are committed to conducting our business responsibly in all of our local communities, so that our activities have a positive impact on:
- the communities of which we are a part: the worldwide communities of scholars and teachers; also the cities where our offices and staff are based
- our staff and the workplace, providing an environment and opportunities which motivate, develop and retain staff
- the environment, where we source supplies and where we manufacture and sell our products or services
- the marketplace, treating our partners, customers, suppliers and competitors with fairness and respect
Our people are encouraged to offer practical help and advice, to nurture educational and voluntary partnerships. We believe this delivers real benefits to local communities, our colleagues and our business. Our work in local communities takes on many different forms, and it is achieved mainly through:
- Education
- Volunteering
- Charities
