Who we are


Corporate social responsibility

01Chaucer in the community

We enjoy playing an active role in our community, making a difference where we can and encouraging our staff to get involved.

Helping to improve disadvantaged lives, we work in two key ways: formally, through our active support for charities, and informally, by supporting the passion and commitment of individual staff members for the particular causes that are close to them.

We aim to make a real difference in the community and to help improve disadvantaged lives.

Over the years, we have actively supported School Home Support which helps disadvantaged children and their parents to engage with, and thrive at school during the difficult transition into primary school and beyond.

02Our Charity Partners

By way of a company-wide vote, we nominated two charities to benefit from our fundraising efforts in 2023

Alzheimer’s Research UK

Alzheimer's Research UK is the UK's leading dementia research charity, dedicated to causes, diagnosis, prevention, treatment and cure.

Grief Encounter

Founded by Dr Shelley Gilbert MBE, our mission is to give every child and young person access to the best possible support following the death of someone close.

We work closely with individuals, families, schools and professionals to offer a way through the anxiety, fear and isolation so often caused by grief.

03Staff activities

From charity races to cooking for homeless people, our staff take part in a wide range of activities to help their local communities and to support the charitable causes they care deeply about.

We actively encourage our people to take part, offering two paid days a year for employees to engage in charity work and matching funds raised through sponsorship and fundraising activities.

We regularly hold breakfast clubs, photography competitions, and cake sales to raise money for charity. Our teams have cleared gardens, built park benches, held CV workshops and helped pupils with their reading skills at schools.
