Impact Report 2022-23

Our colleagues also continued to volunteer their time and
expertise to a range of organisations across London, New
York, and Auckland. We believe that volunteering is an
excellent way of recharging our batteries and contributing
to team building, but it also allows us to forge meaningful
and long-lasting partnerships with our communities. Society
has colleagues who are Trustees of schools and charities
and we are always encouraging and supportive of such
long-term voluntary commitments, as it’s a great way to
develop inclusive and innovative leaders within the firm.
In September we undertook our first whole-company
volunteering event since the start of the pandemic. Our
New Zealand colleagues spent the day at Auckland City
Mission. Our London colleagues transformed the garden
of Westbourne Park’s Memory and Dementia Resource
Centre. And our New York colleagues handed out food for
Campaign Against Hunger.
