Proud to Be GBS’s ‘Most Engaged Employer’!

At the Global Banking School’s Employability Awards on February 13th, we proudly received the title of ‘Most Engaged Employer,’ a recognition that underscores the power of our collaboration with GBS. This partnership, which began last year, has been instrumental in creating meaningful opportunities for students in Health & Social Care courses through our volunteer program. Many of these students have not only completed their placements but have continued supporting us, enriching our projects throughout the year.

Our ongoing work with GBS has ensured the continuity of high-quality placements, helping students develop crucial skills while contributing to the community. The positive relationships we’ve built with both the students and placement leads have been key to the success of our program.

In March, we had the honour of speaking at GBS’s International Women’s Day event, reflecting on how our partnership continues to evolve and make a difference. We’re proud of the work we’ve done together and are excited for what lies ahead!
