The
Derbyshire and its Community
The Derbyshire Building Society have always worked closely with
the communities they serve. Their roots as a building society -
established way back in 1859 - lie in supporting the community,
and today their commitment is as strong as ever.
That's
why they aim to remain a strong regional mutual building society
- there for everyone, to help in any way they can.
Throughout The Derbyshire are unified in one aim: To make a difference.
Every
year they donate funds to community projects and charities, but
their work in this area is not just about money. It's also about
investing time, imagination, effort and expertise to support projects
and stimulate new initiatives.
Everyone
in The Derbyshire is encouraged to take part in community and charity
events. Every individual is aware of the value we place on community
involvement - a value that is supported by the presentation of a
'Contribution to the Community' award form their Chief Executive
to a member of staff whose efforts in the community have been exceptional.
Underlining
this, in the year 2000 they formed the Community Development Team
to co-ordinate some - but my no means all - of the many initiatives
we support. Last year, we supported more than 350 projects with
our community partners.
