About this event

In today’s dynamic business environment, Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) has evolved from a peripheral obligation to a central tenet of corporate strategy. By integrating CSR into the core business model, companies not only contribute to societal well-being but also cultivate a positive workplace culture.

This event explores the multifaceted role of CSR in fostering a thriving work environment.

What is CSR?

Corporate Social Responsibility refers to practices and policies undertaken by corporations to have a positive influence on the world. This includes efforts related to environmental, sustainability, ethical labour practices, philanthropy, and community engagement.

Research indicates that CSR initiatives can significantly enhance a company’s reputation, boost employee morale, and improve overall business performance. According to studies 88% of consumers are likely to be loyal to a company that supports social or environmental issues.

Corporate Social Responsibility is more than a buzzword; it is a crucial element in building a positive workplace culture. By integrating CSR into your business model, companies can enhance their reputation, engage employees, and contribute to societal well-being. As we move forward, the focus should be on strategic planning, employee involvement, and transparent communication to maximize the benefits of CSR initiatives.

By understanding and implementing effective CSR strategies, businesses can not only achieve their corporate goals but also foster a positive, engaged, and socially responsible workplace culture.

This event will provide you the opportunity to listen to how Businesses from across Lancashire have implemented CSR across all facets of their business and the benefits that has created. You will also have the opportunity to meet some of the local 3rd Sector Organisations operating within Lancashire to understand some of the fantastic provision made available by these groups and the impact of their work to their communities.

On a first come first served basis we have availability for 3rd Sector Organisations and Groups to register to attend and exhibit at the event totally free of charge.
