Over the festive period, we will be once again collecting donations for Dundee Bairns so that families can have the kind of festive season that everyone deserves. We'll be collecting practical things that we all take for granted; namely, toiletries (for people of all ages) and cleaning supplies. For those who want to donate more Christmas-y things, we’re also collecting toys and books (including colouring books, crayons, markers, etc.) wrapping paper and sticky tape. According to Dundee City Council it is estimated that the percentage of children living in relative poverty in Dundee is 27.1% compared to a national rate of 24.5% across Scotland. Times are tough, but when people come together to do small things, bigger things result. https://lnkd.in/ehj_9xM9

A wonderful way to spend a Friday with ACHE learning more about gender equity from an esteemed panel.

By realizing women’s representation matters, focusing on DEI efforts, recognizing biases, and continuing to champion one another, impactful change can be made.

Action speaks louder than words..

We strive to make a positive, enduring impact for the people and communities where we live and operate.

BradyPLUS This is truly commendable! Isn’t the act of spreading love a form of sustainable development? 🌍❤️ I believe that the act of sharing love is not just an emotional connection but also a reflection of social sustainability. When people share, help, and care for one another, they are building a more united and compassionate community. 🤝✨ This virtuous cycle not only fosters social harmony but also inspires others to take action, creating a ripple effect of positivity. 🌟 Sustainability is not only about resources and the environment but also about the support and understanding among people. By spreading love, we are, in essence, creating a sustainable social value system—one where everyone feels valued and is motivated to work together for a brighter future. 🌱💡
