Corporate Social Responsibility

At Messenger, we are fully committed to Corporate Social Responsibility. Our CSR strategy focusses on aiding and supporting our local community (and those we work in), encouraging learning within our industry, as well as fundraising for a number of worthy causes. We are hugely fortunate to have a very broad skill set within the team, each of whom can make notable positive contribution to our CSR efforts.

Below are some examples of how we put our strategy into action in the communities in which we live and work; how we encourage the next generation of talent in the heritage sector and how the Messenger family enjoys out of hours fun in the name of charity!

The Mutts Nutts Rescue

We are an office full of dog lovers! Quite often there will be a four-legged friend bumbling around during the working day and so this year we used our Christmas Fundraiser to support something close to home, with pets in mind!

An away day at Lord Leycester Hospital!

Last month, several members of the Messenger team headed to Lord Leycester Hospital to deliver a series of traditional workshops for Donald Insall Associates away day. There's only one rule for their away days - the venue has to be one of their current or past projects, and fortunately LLH was the chosen one!
