“The Safe New Futures team bring a deep understanding of how change impacts us all at a very human level and are helping to unlock the potential of our people in some of the most challenging of times. As a responsible business, we asked ‘What are we giving back to the community?’ The opportunity to work with a charity had real resonance with our purpose, ‘to create prosperity for this generation and for those that follow’. What Safe New Futures do fits with that, so it was a great opportunity and one that both of us have really enjoyed.”
